    welcome to CP. No need to apologize, but I like your humbleness...
    I am sorry, I have no opinion on the matter. I am sure you do. So, don't mind me, I just want to talk audio and pie.

    A 12V trigger allows you to turn on/off other equipment when you power up the receiver. This is useful for things such as a power amp, etc. I just noticed the thread above...it will expand on this a bit more.

    Your off to a great start!
    You are humble, and looked for an answer on your own before asking a question!
    I am also a n00b, but I can say that the guys here are great, helpful, and very knowledgeable.

    Enjoy,
