No, I just ordered it last night, but the amp I'm using isn't my Emotiva, it's an old Onkyo amp from 1987 and it has no standby mode and no trigger on it, so it should work. The amp was the only component that didn't have a trigger, besides the preamp which is what turned the amp on and off via it's switched outlet. I can see how it wouldn't work with the Emotiva though, but if it doesn't work with my amp, I'll just send it back and try something else.
