12 volt trigger out cord

[Taco]

I recently purchased a 1066 and a 1095 off of different people on Audiogon. While I am very pleased with both, I didn't find the 12 v trigger cord in the box. Is there a place I can find the cord online or order directly from Rotel? Turning on the 1095 separately is getting annoying.

All you need is a 3.5 mm (1/8") mono cable that you should be able to find at places like Radio Shack

Taco,

Andrew is correct, just ensure you have the male on both ends, I recently purchased 3.5mm mono cable (6 feet) at the Rat Shack (or any electronic store) for about $4.00.

These cables are not part of the Rotel package and are considered a separate purchase item.

I bought two of the 1/8" mono plugs today at Radio Shack. I installed one each going from the RSP-1066 12v Trigger OUT and one each going to a RMB-1075 12v IN and a RM-1050 12v IN. I switched each amp to 12V TRIGGER - ON...but had no luck. Matter of fact, when I first set them up with the new 1/8 cables I was going to reset my speakers withe the Test Tones. When I tried this I had no sound from the speaker.....it drove me nuts for about 10 minutes. I then switched the 12V Trigger-OFF and the Test Tone worked fine. Either I am doing something wrong...or I have the wrong 1/8 Mono Plug cables. These are 6ft Radio Shack cables 1/8 Mono Male Plugs at each end. Hummmm. Whaddya think?

Go to the Menu setting and ensure that you Power is set to Direct not standby.

Hope this helps,

I am most certain I have the RSP-1066 set to "DIRECT"....I will double check in the morning after work. After I set the up the Mini 1/8" Plugs and have switched the amps appropriatily...do I need to do anything special like turn them on and wait a few moments before turing the RSP -10666 on for the first time?

I think this is what I bought at Radio Shack:

Got it fixed!

Took the "Attenuated 1/8" Mini Phono Plug Cables" back to RatShack and got the plain old shielded 1/8" mini Phono Plug cables.......they work great!
