VK,
Thanks.
1) Good point. Nevermind.

2) I simply power one on or off depending on the use. The amps sit next to each other.
3) Yes, I don't like or use THX modes either. The Alon's are not a problem in standard surround modes. I began all this with Lex's DC-1 and Logic7 back in 1987 when we built the HT as part of the home build. Twenty one years of 7.1 and counting...argh!

I think the DC-1 was more like 1997. I started with a DC-1 too.
I switched from a current DC-1 to a Meridian 561, 568, 568.2, 861, G68.
Sorry, I meant the Lex CP-1 back then, the DC-1 predecessor. I then went to DC-1 and several other Lex platforms until the MC-1. Good to know other DC-1 vets.
Guys, Im sticking with my incredibly musical SP Tech speakers for 2 channel and hirez. And the trigger process is unnecessary but thanks. The amps sit right next to each other and the power switch is simple. As one said on this thread already, I'll keep it simple. Thx
Ted
