On a side note -- if you enjoy the 12v triggering of your McIntosh gear, the Dan D'Agostino gear uses 3.5mm mono plugs verses the stereo plugs McIntosh requires. I had one long mono that I connected the amps with and current using a 1M stereo pair from the Progression Preamp to the right amp -- but seated the plug firmly and then backed it out half way. I don't like that, but will do for now until the new 1M mono 3.5mm cable comes in.

Thank You very much, Bob, for useful information. Didn’t know about useing 3,5 mono trigger cable to connect Progression monoamps and preamp. Will order two mono trigger cables before they arrived.
