Did you turn the switch on the back of the Emotiva to Trigger?

THERES A SWITCH???? DOH!!!!

Is there a switch on the back of the Emotiva that needs to be set to 12v trigger?

I Checked For A Switch, There Is Only A Power Switch And A Normal/bridge Switch. Any Thoughts?

Sorry I thought is had the same rear config as mine.

Hmm. Did you try to use the switched outlet on the back of the receiver and plug the mini plug into the 12v input on the amp. Try this instead of the power switch.

It All Set!!!! The 12v Adapter I Have, When You Plug In The 3.5mm Jack To It There Is A Positve And Negaitve. The Polarity Was Reversed.

My Marantz receiver didn't come with the cable to connect the 12v dc trigger to my Emotiva XPA-3 amp. I found a mono 1/8" mini to 1/8" mini audio card at Rat Shack which seems to be working fine. I had to set the Marantz to Main Zone and then turn all the sources to On. I hope this helps someone.
