I've always read proper turn on sequence is:
1. Preamp along with everything connected to it.
2. Amp.
Shutdown is the opposite
BUT..... My preamp is connected to my amp with a wire that turns both on at the same time when you do a startup with the preamp remote control.
Neither the preamp nor the amp instantly come on, there's a few seconds of delay.
You can here a click in each when they actually power on. I assume this makes the startup procedure okay? Just want to be sure, thanks.
