Since it's an old SB3, you could try using Felix Mueller's PowerSwitchII plugin, which emits a 3.3V DC signal on the headphone output while the SB3 is switched on. You can use it to trigger a relay that will switch the amp on/off along with the SB3.
Felix himself suggests controlling the relay with a transistor, but that requires a power supply. There's another strategy that uses a relay with AC coil and an opto-isolated triac that doesn't need a power supply. See http://delback.co.uk/squeezebox/classic_signal.html for some details. -- cliveb Transporter -> ATC SCM100A ------------------------------------------------------------------------ cliveb's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=348 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=87405 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
