The OP has an integrated amp. You can’t shut off the amp or preamp separately. All he has to do is switch to an other source when he turns the turntable on and off. There is no reason to turn off his Rogue every time he changes a record!
Power Down Sequence for Amp / TT to Avoid Speaker Pop
Hello! I have Rogue Audio Sphinx v3 and Rega P3 TT and Zu Audio Omen's. When I go to flip record side or change to another record, I turn off the TT (while the amp is ON) and I hear an audible pop from the speakers.
I've heard you should avoid this pop (to protect the speakers), but this would mean I would have turn the amp OFF and then back ON whenever I change the record which would be a pain. Turning the TT OFF is the only way to stop the platter. And, Rogue advises not rapidly turning the amp OFF and ON to avoid "transient noises".
What do others do here? Is the pop something to really be worried about and worth this power off / on sequence? I might be missing something as well.
