Need some help:

So I ?reconfigured? my theatre.
Was using a Proceed HPA 3 to run my front three and Nuprime MCH K38 in bridged mode to run the rear 4.
Processor is Marantz 8801, and two DB1?s connected with balanced cables.
All was fine.
I reconfigured with the Nuprime driving the front three in bridged mode and the two other channels driving the rear two speakers.
I have also a Nuprime ST10 running the two surround speakers.
All connections from processor to power amps are balanced.

Two issues:
I can?t seem to get the 12v trigger working, though it was working in the previous config to turn on the power amps.
Worse, when the power amps are on and I turn off the processor, there is an almighty thump/pop from the system, that can be heard in the other end of the house.

What?s up?

Is it grounding? For the power amps?

I will turn off the subs and see if it?s from them.

Power cables are all through a power strip.

Any help before I call the installers?
