Fenderplayer Posted August 3, 2017 Share Posted August 3, 2017 Is there a general volume level for the auto-on to be triggered and turn on the sub. I have an RSW-12. If i am listening at a moderate level at night, I have to crank the volume a bit to get the sub to switch on ... and then I turn the volume back down some. About 15 or 20 minutes later the sub turns off due to the lower volume for night watching while the kids are asleep. What are some of your experiences with this topic? I assume it could also vary on getting a true 5.1 signal from a blu ray versus a stereo or other type of signal from the cable box. Any yes.....I would prefer to have the volume cranked up more all the time.....just not always practice with sleeping kids or the wife making business calls. Thanks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CECAA850 Posted August 3, 2017 Share Posted August 3, 2017 Turn the signal up coming out of your receiver and turn the gain down on the sub amp to compensate. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
derrickdj1 Posted August 3, 2017 Share Posted August 3, 2017 Use a Y adapter to boost the signal to the sub so that it stays on. Use it on the line level L/R sub input on the back of the sub. A Y adaptor cost about $3.99 for Radio Shack or Best Buy. This is just another option. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
