Thoughts on using a smart plug on intergrated amp.

@rbull11 

I would have thought that would have worked unless it was running too high of an initial voltage.  500 mA should be more than enough to work.  It might require a "regulated" power supply that will keep the voltage between 5V and 12V regardless of a load being present.

That said, using the WiiM Pro as a trigger is a logical next step. 

I'm running a variation of this idea to voice control both my bedroom and office systems by triggering the power conditioner(s) on and off.

Let us know how the WiiM works out.

jeffbij , todays discoveries, I had an e-mail sent to Micromega and they told me the trigger ports were the opposite of the labeling due to a manufacturing issue, so i was plugged in to the output not input. I rehooked the power supply up and the trigger turned unit on but not off. The 12Vdc takes a long time to discharge when I shut off smart plug or disconnect from power. I have a 2.5mm to 3.5mm cable coming tomorrow so we'll see how it works with the WiiM Pro.

jeffbij , Got the cord for the WiiM pro from Amazon and it works great. I believe a switched mode 12V power supply would work with the smart plug too, the power supply I got probably would work but it takes a while to discharge so the voltage drops enough to shut the amp off. I never left it on long enough to find out.

It should.  Make sure it is listed as a "regulated" power supply.  It might cost a little more, but it will keep the voltage constant regardless of the load.

For now you could use the WiiM Pro connected to the smart plug as the trigger controller, but it might add some noise to it.

Let us know how it works out.
