Measure the trigger output voltage and if it is lower than 6 volts you may need a repeater. Does the "music" setting function as the trigger? Just for curiousity sake, how long after the system is off do the 2200 stay active?


No I haven't triggered more than one amp with the 886. But when I connect only one M2200 to the 886 without the A7200 the single amp will not trigger on. I have had a number of M/C and Stereo amps in my system with the 886 and have never had this issue. I do not have meter to measure the voltage. But it seems to work fine with all the other amps I've owned. I'll look into a repeater if that will help. The Music setting works fine with all three amps. I have not timed how long the amps stay on but I'd guess around 15 minutes. Not a big deal just that I prefer to use the 12v trigger. Thanks again for your help smile!
