Im pretty sure that the remote circuit for your amp is receiving power before the one on the stereo, where do you have the remote wire on your amp connected to? A turn on thump happens usually when the amp powers up before the stereo

All of your better amps will have whats called a soft turn on circuitry built in, cheaper amps don't have this and that's why you get a thump

not always true, and the question is why.
