Hi everyone,
I am from Germany and during a recent visit to Arizona I purchased two of the sure 4x100 W amps. They run nicely so far, one at home and since yesterday I have one in my car driving the mid/high section of my frontspeakers.
There is one major issue using them in the car though: I can not switch them on via remote like the rest of my equipment. Now I would not be happy with simply putting a relay (is relay correct for a triggered switch?) in the power supply line. I spotted a 5V regulator on the board. What is it there for? - Any chance to switch the 5V line to power off the board?
Any other suggestions?
Many thx!
Nico Berndt

Hi,
sory I didn't reply earlier - I wasn't notified of responses..
I just thought such a big relay would not be very elegant if there was a smarter way. Worst case I would have to go for it, sure..
Having the amp drawing power at all times does not sound to good, but I'll check the datasheet, thx for the hint.
