Please post if you do. Also it should be noted that 1) many amps and active speakers have that sort of circuitry and 2) many amps are very efficient, making something like PowerSwitchII or BottleRocket not worth the trouble. The cheap Sonic Impact T-Amp that I use in one room pulls less than a watt (IIRC) when nothing is playing. Both the fiscal and environmental cost of leaving it on 24x7 for years are probably less than the fiscal and environmental cost of another $5-$10 X10 appliance module. -- peterw http://www.tux.org/~peterw/ free plugins: http://www.tux.org/~peterw/#slim AllQuiet BlankSaver BottleRocket FuzzyTime SaverSwitcher SleepFade StatusFirst SyncOptions VolumeLock ------------------------------------------------------------------------ peterw's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2107 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=43607 _______________________________________________ jive mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/jive
