The Sunfire True Sub Super Junior does have an auto on/off feature. It is either on or in stand by mode. This is the same for the vast majority of powered subwoofers. Typical power consumption in stand by mode cost approximately $1 per year. I agree to try and save on power usage, but for that little amount, as the old saying goes, it’s like "peeing in the ocean".
Subwoofers.....Leave On/Off?
I run dual Sunfire Sub Juniors in one of my A/V system and really like what they bring to the game.
They are connected to independent power strips, which I use to turn them on/off since they lack the
auto on/off feature most subs now have. Both subs emit a sizable thump when I power them up/down,
making me wonder if I'm doing more harm than good by not leaving them on full-time.
My monthly power bill reflects the amount of equipment I have plugged in throughout my home, so I'm
trying to lighten the load, so to speak.
