Is it possible to avoid subwoofer amps turning off after not beign used? I would like to find a way to keep them on all the time.

No, the amps in the speakers go to "sleep" after about 30-45 minutes or so of no signal and there is no way to bypass that. Sorry!

Why would you want to leave the amp on when not in use?

Because sound is better when amps are warmed up and they use only around 5W at idle.

I can see the logic to wanting to keep the Triton amps “warmed up”, same as wanting DAC’s, amps etc. under power. It does make a difference in SQ, cold vs. warmed up IMO. Moderator Dude, are the powered Triton amps in standby with some power, or totally off when the light goes out?

Just curious. I always turn the system on in advance of critical listening, and the Triton’s lights stay on for awhile.

Thank You for understanding. I haven't turned off my streamer and DAC in years. Even D class amp benefit from warming up.
