Do the lights have to be on for the speakers to work?

The lights must be turned on with the wall switch, but you can use your phone app to dim them all the way to zero power.

Yes, lights have to have power. However you can dim lights to nothing through the app.

most likely, the speaker needs to be plugged in and charged. I have three speakersand that is the most likely answer.

They should be shielded well enough but the cables/wires may not be. Touch light put a small electic field on items. A disturbance in the field is what enables a touch light to sense 'on/off' touches. Make sure the speakers and cables are well away from them and that should resolve problem (IF that is the problem). Otherwise i like the speakers alot.

No trick. Room just needs to be dark enough for them to turn on. It works off a light sensor. They don't just turn on when you plug them in. If the room is dark but they won't turn on then they're defective and you should return them.

Yes and no. There is a switch to turn them on, but they won't come on in the day time, only at night. But you can turn them off so they don't come on at night.

I ran a wire from my led switch to the amp that way the amp is only on when my lights are; The lights are a good reminder to shut it off. I'm not sure if the was a light or not on the amp but i know it still pulled power when speakers were "off"

No. I had to check and when the switch is up the light on the switch goes off. They only illuminate when they're in the down/off position.

I ran my wires straight to the stereo power wire and they've worked great. I have a switch on my console that powers up the radio. When that switch is turned on, the speakers are lit up regardless of whether the radio is on or not. They look pretty cool at sunset and I'm sure they would look awesome at night. The speakers themselves sound great. Good luck.

no No issue at all, these speakers work great .Minor problem with the off/on switch sticking a bit .

Does your right speaker have an orange power on light when the speakers are powered on? Do you have the connection to your PC in the right slot? This is a fairly simple hook up so if you have power to the speakers, and the connection is in the right slot it is a problem with the speakers, as I assume you had speakers to your PC before and they worked.

LOL, I don't think so. The lights are just static and the only control is the volume. They look nice, though :-)

Yes, but they will not move. When the music starts, the lights should start to move and criss-cross. If they don't, you need to turn the microphone knob volume up higher until the lights start to move. At that setting, the lights will stay on, but not move when the music stops. You need to find the right microphone setting where it moves with music and stops moving when the music stops. But the lights will always stay on regardless of whether its moving or not. I hope this helps.

No they do not. These are at least bookshelf speakers - they have a large footprint.

No, the LED lights remain on as long as the laptop is on and powered up; even if it goes to sleep, the lights remain on. As for the sound quality, I should say that I am not an audiophile, so not too discriminating regarding quality. The bass is satisfactory for my purposes, and the overall sound quality is just fine for me, sitting at the kitchen counter. Much better quality than listening to the mono-radio. It is not intended for high volume, and I don't need or use it for that purpose. It does get some distortion at highest volume, as you would expect.

Hi, No, they have to be plugged in to light up and then unplugged to shut-down. I wish they did have a light sensor switch. On the other hand, it would be something else that could go wrong and prevent the system from lighting up if it malfunctioned.

No these are just really cool lights. If your looking for similar speakers I would suggest water speakers. Just make sure they have tracking. -James

No... they don't ..they move like an old school eq ..they are very sensetive...if you have a loud sytem like my self you have to set them real low..too loud and they will not move just light up..but they are cool when its dark ..i will recommend.
