Just a random side note: When I turn my car off, the empeg goes to standby but my Alpine unit and amp go cold dead. I can wake the empeg and have it play, but no sound comes out.

Maybe my installer wired it up this way as a safeguard? Or, as a mistake. ::shrugs::

And, I *think*, if I wake it to play, it still shuts down completely 30 or 60 seconds after I switched the car off; cutting cold-off while it's playing.
