Power Up the System - What Do You Do?


I leave my system in idle when not in-use. I only kill the power when I know bad storm is comming or if I am out of town for few days. I have always disconnected my speaker cables before I start it back up and re-connected after system is completly powered up. This way the speakers don't get popped and eventually could cause damage. I am just curious how you start up your system.

Thanks.

Sd2005gt, you're playing with fire! No decent system should "pop" the speakers when turned on. Speakers should NEVER be connected when an amp is powered up. Short out your amp output or speaker terminals on a hot amp, and you're asking for a world of hurt!
Sd2005gt, then you've been lucky for years...don't push it! Why is you're system "popping" the speakers, anyway?
