Automatic power-switching function
When you play a source, the power of the subwoofer
turns on automatically by sensing audio signals input to
the subwoofer. On the other hand, the subwoofer
automatically switches to the standby mode if the source
being played is stopped or the input signal is cut off for a
few minutes.
This function will operate by sensing a certain level of
low frequency input signal. Its sensitivity is high in the
HIGH position and low in the LOW position of the AUTO
STANDBY switch. Set this switch to the position you
prefer. In the HIGH position, the power will turn on even
with a low level of input signal. But please be aware that
the subwoofer may not switch to the standby mode when
there is an extremely low input signal.
* The power might turn on unexpectedly by sensing
noise from other appliances. If that occurs, set the
AUTO STANDBY switch to the OFF or LOW position.
* The level of low frequency input signal differs with
each source and among different parts within the
same source. This means that the function may not
operate properly on some sources.
This function is available only when the power of the
subwoofer is on (by setting the POWER switch (
to "ON").
