That's the one. My powered monitors have an auto switch on/off feature, but unfortunately it's not sensitive enough (or too sensitive). When I played music at low volume the speakers tend to switch off automatically. Ampswitch saved the day. It's been a long time since I soldered anything, but when I figured out which way the transistor fitted in it turned out to be pretty easy. I built the whole thing in a box that I placed in between an extension cord.
