Do these speakers auto power off? or if I turn them on they stay on?

Speakers DO NOT stay powered on despite what bluguitarman says. They have a "power save" mode that shuts them off after 15 minutes of inactivity. Pretty lousy if you ask me, but the killer sound these puppies put out MORE than makes up for that minor annoyance.

yes, they stay on once they are turned on until you physically hit the off button. It's much easier to just leave them on rather than go through the pairing of the speakers to the bluetooth adapter every time they speakers are powered up....just my opinion.

Yes, they power off. Doesn't matter if they are paired or using the wired connection. It's highly annoying, and I have not found a way around it.

They stay on if they are playing something (if sound is coming out). Once the input stops, they turn themselves off quickly. I don't know the exact length of time, but I'm guessing 5-10 minutes. I agree that it is annoying, because I use them across the room to boost my TV sound and so I have to get up and turn them back on a lot. If you were using them at a desk, it probably wouldn't matter as much.

They do not auto-power down, they stay lit until the button is pressed again.

Wade - if you are referring to the power down due to audio inactivity, yes, they do have that. But to tell you the truth, this has not been an issue with me at all. I use them quite frequently for videos, music etc and I haven't even noticed that it has come into play. I actually prefer this mode, as I don't have to power the units down when I walk away. And when I return, they automatically power themselves up.Hope this helps.

No. You have to manually turn them off by holding down the power button for 8 seconds.

No, these are traditional component speakers and are not self-powered. Hope this helps. Barry

No, no turn on or off - you just plug them in and they heat up, unplug to shut off.

The LED lights do turn off and on automatically. The sound quality does the job definitely as well. Sound is crisp ,sharp, and of course the bass is certainly a plus.

I have mine set to always on and have never heard anything. They are super quiet.

Yes, they must be turned on manually. After that you can use the remote to change the volume individually. For instance, I had the speakers outside on our patio. One speaker I wanted just a little louder than the other. By pointing the remote at the specific speaker you can change the volume. There is no power button on the remote.

I have no idea since they have been plugged in since purchase. One has failed but the second one still works, after almost 3 years. I mainly listen to lectures and I do wonder if other speakers might be better for music?

Correct. They come on automatically at dark. You can shut them off with a switch on the back and keep the battery charged.

You can leave the power cord connected to the speakers, but i recommend unplugging them from the power source after use. Especially for the price, you don't want them to mess up on you. But this is a great buy and with great customer service as well.

They only stay on when the power is on to each individual port. When the port is turned off...the light goes out.

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.

Mine didn't turn off automatically. As far as the sound, I thought they were great as long as they lasted, but for only 3 months is not very long for something to last. Maybe I got a lemon.

They're always on. You just switch on your pandora or other source. The sound is very good and in a medium sized room the volume is ample. Haven't had any trouble with these; bought two sets.
