[QUOTE="Ivan Beaver, post: 147199, member: 30"] Re: JBL PRX series auto-off disable? ACTUALLY-that is EXACTLY the reason the Peavey IPR amps have the blue LEDs in them that you can see when it is OFF. In order to get the energy star rating, the "idle current" must be very low-according to the way the "spec" is written. Since you cannot divide the operating current by "zero" and have a number to put on the application, it HAD to draw some current. So they put the LEDs in there to draw a small amount of current in the "off" position. Blame it on the "government" and how specs are written. It doesn't always make sense. Having a product waste energy in order to be called an "energy saver". [/QUOTE]
