I'm having the same problem with speakers shutting off for long periods of time; I am not using the batteries. Is there a way of getting a more powerful "tuner", or whatever it's called. Also, Royal has the worst customer service I've ever known; everything has to be done by "mail". Not worth having to spend the money to send them back to the company, only to have them tell me they work o.k for them. If they worked continually, they would be great. The "signal's" the problem for me.

I don't know if you have given up on these speakers but I wanted to weigh in. I have direct tv with an HD receiver and connect directly to the receiver and love the speakers! I use 8' 3.5 mm male/female speaker extensions so that I can keep the subwoofer with the volume controls near my chair and still have good speaker separation. My tv remote only mutes the tv speakers in this set up but I don't mind. The 2.1 system is a very nice buy in my opinion! Hope this helps. Terry

I believe after an hour or 2 of being inactive, it automatically shuts off. Once you sync with blue tooth, everytime you turn it on, it will start playing music from your device. Do what I do and keep the remote at a convenient location. Overall this speaker is totally worth the price surprisingly coming from a CD manufacture company. Definitely good for outdoor or bed room.

If I turn it off, my TV (RCA) will not sound. I put it in Standby mode (and then "off" in this mode), the TV sounds on its own speakers. I imagine with Sony Bravia TV the experience should be better

My center Bose speaker is just hooked up to my surround sound amplifier. I have the built-in TV speakers turned off. Also, I find many programs easier to understand with the center volume turned up a bit.

Speakers are terrible, tinny sounding and not loud. Sound seems to come out the bottom of TV. I plugged a small pair of computer speakers into the headphone jack and they sound good. I just have to manually turn them off (they have an on/off switch on them) when I turn off tv.

Yeah, that sucks. I figured it out after I couldn't return them anymore.I just gave them away and bought a much more expensive one to replace them.I got a Crown 28M to replace my two Pyles. It has been on for about 4 months now, and never hummed. I needed an always on system for PA work.

I put more thought into why Teresa B would want to take the iHome apart. Does it have sound? On the bottom of the speaker is a small black button. It has an off position. Then when you move the button, the next click is for non-wireless computers. The next and last click is for wireless computers. If you move the button to the incorrect position for your computer, you will have no sound. It is a terrific speaker. Hope this answers the question.

I have the same thing here. It's normal for most powered speakers with an external power brick to have some audible sound when the transformer cuts to standby.

It may be that the speaker(s) blew out from long term use or long term use at a high volume. Mine haven't done that but you may want to contact the manufacturer to check on the warranty details. I hope this helps. :)

I have this problem.. since I bought it without warranty I didn't contact the customer care.. I connected it to the Home theater and turned the tv speaker off

All I can tell you is that if you walk out of the room, you lose the sound. My TV room is about 12 feet wide so that is as far as I am from my set and my earphones work great. I feel like it would work if I were 20 feet away, it is just you need to be facing the TV and not around the corner. I love these things! I enjoy all the BBC shows but can't understand the conversations at times, with the head set, I understand every word, the words are crisp and clear. Good luck.

disconnect at 5 ft range is not reasonable. the unit may be defective unless the bluetooth adapter is blocked by the speaker itself or big/thick object in front of speaker. Please email amazon or bentsai01@msn.com for replacement. Thanks!

Exact same thing happened to me. I am in the process of shipping it out for repair. The unit is of terrible construction and the electronics flaked. I actually got a sub -woofer and wireless surround speakers for my TV which are 10 times better.

Try turning the volume up on the TV. Sometimes these devices are a volume magnifier. I have a Royal and it has plenty of volume so if that doesn't work the unit may be defective.

I have had no trouble with my speakers. They are great for such little things. I personally would return them to Amazon.

Hi there, Robert. I've found that if my unit's receiver portion isn't receiving a signal, it shuts itself off within 20 minutes, as well. I have mine connected via an optical digital cable to my PC's sound card, and as long as I have my PC up and running, the soundbar and receiver stay on, but if the power goes off, it shuts off after 20 minutes. I'd suggest you try connecting your system via a digital optical cable, if you can. I believe that that will solve your problem, if the equipment you're connecting it to can accommodate a digital optical cable... Good luck! : )
