I run monos and they are always last on first off. My pre runs 24x7. Source components are a mixed bag. Some run 24x7, others are turned on/off for each listening session.
Power up sequence is always sources then monos. Power down is the reverse. All switching is manual.
If you must have automated turn on/turn off you need a sequencer, not a trigger. These are built into some power conditioners.
Be careful, though. You don't want anything inline with your power amp that might limit its ability to draw AC current. I prefer having the power amps go straight into the wall.
Remember, it's not high end if it's convenient!
