Trigger cable lowers temperatures & power consumption

[deviousalet]

I'll leave the rca/xlr in place for the distant future I have no need to access the extra inputs on the Companion. I was just trying to discern all available options to reduce the operating temperature of the Companion.

I may however decide to pull the plug from the wall to negate the warmer than expected "when completely off" internal temperature of the Companion. Its a little disconcerting that its that warm despite being turned off.

Ron D, are you using the RCA/XLR cable as your Master-Companion link because it sounds better than RCA/RCA or for other reasons?

As to the temperature, Devialet doesn't provide an "off" state even though they call it that they still leave a lot powered (and thus wasting power as heat) in what they call "off". If you get annoyed unplugging your Devialet every night please join me in asking Devialet for a true off state (ask them directly). Thanks.
