Power strip with 5v + trigger
 
Need to find a power strip with 5v + trigger.
I have a MX119 that needs to trigger a zone b outlet for only one amp. The manual says 5v trigger.
I have a panamax MAX4400 that does all the other amps and don't have room for another Panamax. I can always build something if a commercial version is not available.

I use & recommend the RGPC Extender Pro

These have 12v triggers, the MX119 manual says 5v. Or are they sensitive enough to work with the low trigger output of the MX119?

They work just fine with Mac gear, I have been using them for years. :yes:

John.......I am not a big Monster fan, but the Monster Cable Power Center HTS2000 MkII provides DC triggering from 5 volts to 30 volts. I used it to power the MC275 from the the C2200 trigger. It works perfectly. It has a digital AC volt meter, and amp meter built into the face, plus surge protection. For $148 at Amazon, it's hard to beat.

I use an APC H-15 on my Mac gear and it works fine.

Finding one that went down that low was one of my prime features I looked for.

Oh boy! I was justifying a MA2275 because of the "integrated" solution to a remote power on.

This totally paves the way for a MC275 & C2300 combo!

Bill.......I still use the HTS2000 MkII, but now it triggers the power for three active bi-amp JBL speakers in my home theater system. Works like a champ.

Dan...

I HEART YOUR JBL 6332s! I would love to listen to a pair, just to see how they compare to my Klipschorns.

Thanks for your input. Now, I have a wishlist of Power conditioners (to co with my universal remote control, amp, and pre-amp ideas)

Bill
