The battery is still providing power. After awhile, it too will shut down, as has the engine. I would say you have a worn out Key or lock. Note that car ignition has 4 stages. You can read
- Lock
- Radio
- On
- Start.
Lock will lock the steering wheel. At on the dashboard lights come on. At start, the engine starts and dashboard lights go off. Though not indicated between Lock and On is the radio. Normally the radio should go off immediately you switch off and remove the key. Sometimes if your key or your lock is worn out, the key can come out even when the car is on. So the reason your radio is left on is because you have not switched off completely though your key is off. To make sure the car is completely off, make sure you have locked the steering column. Otherwise you will find the battery is down.

Why does the power to your car stereo go out when you turn on the car?
If your car stereo is always hot at all times it shouldn't go out or has connectivity when at "start" Turning the key from "on" to "start" temporarily cuts out the power connectivity. Stereos are not designed to have power at "start" because pretty much the starter uses much amperage and voltage from the battery the seconds while the engine is being cranked

What do you mean charge the amplifier? It's not a battery, so you just turn the stereo on. When the stereo goes on, the remote wire will turn the amplifier on and you're good to go.

How do you stop a 1980 Toyota supra from losing its battery power?
Locate the power drain. You either have a switch on the doors or trunk that isn't cutting off...a light stays on. OR you have a badly installed car stereo/amp/or alarm system. Have you checked your alternator output? You can do so for free at Auto Zone. They can check it "on car". If you can, and it's an aftermarket stereo system, (after checking alternator and battery) disconnect stereo from power and wait overnight to see if better. This could also happen if you have a low-wattage alternator and a HUGE sound system that sucks down power. Auntetr
