these speakers don't have an on/off switch so i used a power switch or surge protector with on/off switch to solve the problem when i turn on the reciever i also turn on the sub no problem.

as main speakers for my surround sound these bad boys will not dissapoint for the price and there sensitivity is very good its 90db per watt so they will sound louder with less efficient receivers.

the subwoofer wouldnt work with the new addition a/v reciever (line level input vs speaker level inputs on the old sub) so i decided to getone with a line level input.

after the adjustment and installment my system came to life with the added base to my living room.i have a yamaha 6050 receiver with all sony speakers,the combination makes a dynamic sound.
from www.amazon.com
it's certainly possible that at low levels, my onkyo receiver doesn't put any low level signal out to the subwoofer, which would cause the sub to power off.
from www.amazon.com
since i'm only using it for a second sub-woofer, i've split the pre-amp input out of my receiver to this and another subwoofer.
