I got a Rotel RSX 1055 AV receiver with a couple of 12V trigger outputs. I would like to use one of them to switch on my sub's amp. The sub has a Hypex 200 amp build in which delivers 100 W into 8 ohms. AC current where I live is 220 Volts.
Although the amp has a sensor input that detects bass signals, it reacts too slow or sometimes doesn't come on at all. There's a three way power switch on the amp I-on; 0-off; II-Standby=sensor enabled.
Unfortunately, Rotel's manual doesn't say what the 12V trigger output does when switching on the receiver. So I need to know how to build a relay that can replace my sub's power switch and uses the receiver's trigger signal. Can anyone give me some pointers? Thanks a million!
