The actual problem is that the DC-1 sends the 12v signal to the amps for turn on or off and, whether you get the popping when turning on or turning off the DC-1, the amps are either going on before the DC-1 or the DC-1 is going off before the amps and if you cure one delay problem, eg. turn on, you are creating the other at turn off. I believe that this is -or will be- harmful to, most likely, your tweaters and I have abandoned use of the triggers for this reason. What I now do is simply turn on the DC-1 first along with any other component, wait about 10 seconds, and then turn on the amps; I do the same in reverse when turning the system off and I do use the triggers between the amps themselves -i.e. the first amp is triggered to turn on the second and the second to turn on the third.
