Did / could anyone test, how the A5/A7 reachts if it is connected to a switchable power supply?
If you switch off power with the amp being "on", will it then restart when power is switched back on?
Thanks - that is cool.
I my case, the Wiim Ultra will not reliably toggle a Master - Slave power strip, as the difference in power consumption between Standby and On is too low.
In cases where the auto On/Off of the A5/A7 does not work reliably, you could then use the 12V trigger of the source and connect that to a power switch, for example this: https://www.audiophonics.fr/en/diy-...v-230v-slave-power-supply-device-p-10661.html
thanks

Basically A7 retains its state through main power ON/Off cycle.
If its in standby then it would retain standby state when mains is powered OFF and then powered ON. Likewise, if it is powered ON and then mains power is OFF and ON then it would retain to powered ON state.
I have smart plug on the main power for it and it has always worked like this without any failure.
On the other hand, I also had ZD3 DAC which always comes ON when mains id powered ON which annoyed me too much being on the same power distribution.
