Does Bluetooth get turned off automatically when the speakers are plugged in?

No. And it's actually possible to play something through Bluetooth AND through the wired jack. I have accidentally had music playing from my phone (connected with Bluetooth) and also through my laptop at the same time.

Hi Brenda The Bluetooth mode is always in "standby mode" when the speakers are powered on. However, if a device is paired to the Soundsticks the blue LED on the subwoofer turns on..

yes definitely there is a switch to turn the Bluetooth on and off. It also saves battery power.

If I left the speaker on when I cut thought off, it automatically cuts on and off with the light switch. It also usually auto connects to the last thing had paired with it if that device is on. Really nice...I rarely touch the remote...just click the light switch as I enter the room and with my iPad and Bluetooth on it just starts playing.

I think it works that way. I notice it go to sleep mode after a while if no activities. There are couple settings at the bottom of the speaker for sleep mode settings. I love this speaker.

Well, I just leave mine plugged in to both the stereo jack and a usb port all the time, so I'm not sure. But I do know that if you turn off the iclever or the speakers, then they need to be re-paired.

Dear Customer,Thank you for your question regarding the BTX270 Bluetooth Speaker. The BTX270 should only shut off automatically if it's not connected to a Bluetooth device. If it is connected via Bluetooth but no audio is streaming, it will not shut off.Thank you,Kinivo Product SupportEmail : support@kinivo.comLive chat : http://support.kinivo.com | Mon-Fri: 9AM - 5PM PST

I just tested it and no it does not. When plugged in, it turns off and begins charging which causes it to disconnect from the device it is paired with. HomeSpot NFC-Enabled Bluetooth Audio Receiver for Sound System seems to have the functionality you are looking for.Edit: Nick is correct it does work, but you have to turn it back on. I did not, however, have the issue where the device still thought it was connected if I only held the power button for a moment after connecting. It seems to have different hold times for the button to work on different days. I use it in my car as a delivery driver so it stays plugged in a lot. I just tested it and no it does not.

You may need to plug and unplug the device to your Bose speaker everytime you use it, hope it helps

Interesting you should ask because I have this question as well and thought I found a solution yesterday (fingers crossed). Answer to your question is yes based on my experience and here are my findings, the speaker goes powers itself off after a period of inactivity, however, I find that if you pair it with your bluetooth device and then add the speaker to the wifi network it will remain on, at least that's how I did it and still on after overnight.

There's no need to do so. You can turn off the stereo on stop you computer's music player. I also will unpaired the Bluetooth when I want to play through the computer speakers.Are you thinking of another form of "turning off?"

no it doesn't. I don't know any bluetooth headset that works while plugged in. its a safety feature

I don't really understand the question, so I'm guessing here. If you connect 2 USB BT transmitter to a computer you'll have to pair one to the speakers and the other to the headphones. But if it's only one USB you'll have to pair it to the speakers or the headphones every time you switch between them, and the speakers don't turn off automatically

No ... volume is controlled on the device to which the phones are plugged in. However, if not turned "on" the sound is greatly diminished.

Sometimes. It depends. I noticed that when I walk away with my smartphone from the speaker it would automatically shuts off because it's not getting the bluetooth signal from the smartphone. The smartphone has to be within 30' range to rceive the signal. Personally, I wouldn't worry about it because the battery life is good up to 48 hours.

The speakers stay on and u have to manually turn them off using the switch on the back on the main speaker

Yes. I use it that way all the time. My suspicion is that this shortens the battery life, but unlike most BT speakers, the battery can be replaced. I have not tried using the speaker plugged in and the battery removed. BTW, both the blue and red LED glow, so you get a purple glow from the unit.

Hi.On mine, when I plug in headphones, the sound switches from the speakers to the headphones. With headphones plugged in, you can listen to music without disturbing anyone else.
