I know most people like the convenience of having the amp come on with the cd player, but I like to have my amp(s) on a switch. Basically all you have to do for that if you want to is run 14-16 ga. cable from your power hook-up on your amp(s), to a switch, then from the other terminal on the switch to your remote hook-up on your amp(s). This is most helpful if you are running multiple amps, especially for regular speakers and 1 for sub. and you want to turn your amp off for your sub and/or turn off the other amp(s).
