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::


This part does sound perfectly normal to me. Remember no other car stereo is a cool as the empeg. All the other aftermarket head units I have owned would need you to keep the ignition to On, or Accessory mode to turn on. When you turn the ignition off, you cut power thru the ignition sense wire, and the HU turns off. With the HU off, the amps will not power up because they get their signal from that HU, not the empeg.

As for the other part, I have no clue.

edit: That's pretty cool, the bbs now shows a cake above your name on your birthday. Wow I feel special!
