So I purchased the adcomgfa5805 and it sounds great. Its hooked to the 12v trigger on my Denon 4310ci the problem I'm having is that when I turn of the denon I get a pop sound out of the tweeters.

    My 555s give a mild thump when they shut down but nothing that I find concerning. Don't know much about the 5805 though.

    IMO the pop is from the Denon and Adcom shutting off at the same time. The Adcom amp has no output relay, so any signal at the input will continue to be amplified after power-down until the power supply caps discharge. Best practice is to always power down the amp first, then the preamp, so that turn-off noises in the preamp are not amplified by the amp. That is not happening with your Denon trigger. Unless the pop is very loud, I would not worry about it.

    It's normal with a lot of Adcom equipment. I had two 535 amps, both did it.
    If you can't hear a difference, don't waste your money.

    I wonder if you could get the proper delay by using something like the Belkin PF60 that I'm using. It lets you feed 12v trigger to the unit, then assign a delay to the 12v trigger output and any switched outlet banks you assign. Just a thought.
    Equipment list:
    Onkyo TX-NR3010 9.2 AVR
    Emotiva XPA-3 amp
    Polk RTi70 mains, CSi40 center, RTi38 surrounds, RTi28 rears and heights
    SVS 20-39CS+ subwoofer powered by Crown XLS1500
    Oppo BDP-93 Blu-ray player
    DarbeeVision DVP5000 video processor
    Epson 8500UB 1080p projector
    Elite Screens Sable 120" CineWhite screen

    That's a good suggestion. Its triggering options and programmable delay is perfect for the OP's Adcom. I have a PF-60 in my HT system, and at one time used it to turn on/turn off my Phase Linear Series 2 amp, which has no power switch.
