    Post Boot up sound pops?

    Anyone know how to get rid of that pop you get if your PC starts up after your amp turns on?
    I get the pop immediatly on PC start and when it starts windows and I'm afraid of the damage it could cause.

    You should first turn on your PC and then the amplifier.Connect your 12v output from PC to the amp's power-on screw.This will give enough delay for the amp.

    Cool

    Another pop is caused when the drivers for the sound card initialize. Some do it, some don't. There isn't really anything you can do about that one except get new drivers. Sound Blaster compatible drivers may work, they may not.

    Well, it doesn't pop when windows starts now, just on power up. Looks like I'm gonna do some rewiring now .
    So I guess I just tap in to one of the 12v cables coming out of the PS and connect that to the "remote" port (right now, the AMP turns on when my tape deck is on).
