If that were the case (12V constant is connected to 12V switched and vice versa) wouldn't it stand to reason that my Empeg would power up as soon as it wa docked, regardless of the ON/OFF status of the car? See, if my car is off, no key in the ignition, and I plug my Empeg in, it DOESN'T power on. No standby light or anything. As soon as I turn the car on, the Empeg boots up and the head unit comes on. When I turn the key to OFF, the head unit powers off, but the Empeg doesn't. So it would seem that ignition sense works turning ON but not turning OFF. I'm no expert (obviously) but it seems that if the constant power were connected to switched, then the Empeg would turn on as soon as it was docked, and not properly respond to the ignition turning on, which mine does...

Let me know if you agree with this logic... Thanks.
