Frustrated locating special relay controlled outlet...

Can anyone point me to either a single or duplex 110v 15A outlet that can be controlled by a 12v signal from my HT Receiver? I have 2 Sub amps that have manual toggle switches for power, and they wind up staying on when I shut the receiver down. I'd ideally like a device that I can plug my amp's power cord into, then plug that device into a filtered power module. This 'device' would have a 12V signal relay that acts as a switch for the output outlet.

I know that there are some high-end power modules on the market that offer this feature built-in, but I really don't want to go for the buck right now...

Any help would be apprciated!

Thanks!

I just bought a Russound [ACT-1?] AC outlet that takes a 12V input and turns on/off power to my amp.Works great, detachable power cord, wallmountable, only something like $65

Xantech also makes one, i think it's called the AC-1.

Thanks... I just looked this up on the Russound site, and it's exactly what I was looking for...

Too bad they don't offer a 2 outlet version... I have two amps (left/right) that should go on/off together.
