Probably not. The amp is turning on by recieving 12v+ at the remote wire regarless of thru a relay or not.

There are delay units out there that are very cheap if you do not wish to make one yourself using an RC circuit. A delay should help...but not always.

Let us know the vehicle and type of audio equipment as well..sometimes it is an inherant problem and we may know a definate cure, if possible.
