Order in which you turn on Profiler and Kabinet

Hello! Does the order in which the Profiler and Power Kabinet turn on matter? Or is it indistinct? On some occasions, with the imprints activated, I had to turn off one of the two but I don't remember which one.

Industry standard would be to turn on source first followed by amplifier. So Profiler then Power Kabinet, Prevents amplifying of brief electric signals during turn on that can damage speakers.

Yep.

Power amplifier: Last on. First off.

If you hear a "pop" when turning on amps, then you have to turn on the opposite way. I have to turn on my studio sub first (which feeds into my monitors) and then turn on my monitors last. Otherwise I get the "pop".

I have to do something similar in my car since I am using 3 sets of amps to power different speaker sets.
