Troubleshooting

If you have any trouble using your DTR-8.4, look for a solution in this section. If you can’t resolve the issue yourself, contact your Integra/Onkyo dealer.

Power

Can’t turn on the DTR-8.4?

Make sure that the power cord is properly plugged into the wall outlet. Make sure that the other end of the power cord is properly connected to the DTR-8.4’s AC INLET.

Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet, wait five seconds or more, then plug the cable in again.

The DTR-8.4 turns off as soon as it’s turned on?

The amp protection circuit has been activated. Remove the power cord from the wall outlet immedi- ately and contact your Integra/Onkyo dealer.

Audio

There’s no sound, or it’s very quiet?

Make sure that all audio connecting plugs are pushed in all the way (page 26).

Make sure that the inputs and outputs of all compo- nents are connected properly (page 26).

Make sure that the polarity of the speaker cables is correct and that the bare wires are in contact with metal part of each speaker terminal (page 23)

Make sure that the input source is properly selected (page 51).

Check the volume. It can be set from 0 to 100 (page 51).

The DTR-8.4 is designed for home theater enjoyment. It has a wide volume range, allowing precise adjust- ment.

If the MUTING indicator is shown on the display, press the remote controller’s [Muting] button to unmute the DTR-8.4 (page 52).

While a pair of headphones is connected to the PHONES jack, no sound is output by the speakers (page 52).

Check the digital audio output setting on the con- nected device. On some games consoles, such as those that support DVD, the default setting is off.

With some DVD-Video discs, you need to select an audio output format from a menu.

Make sure that the correct input signal audio format is selected with the [Audio Selector] button (page 53).

To use a turntable with an MC-type cartridge requires a commercially available MC phono preamp

(page 35).

Make sure that none of the connecting cables are bent, twisted, or damaged.

Not all listening modes use all of the speakers (page 56).

Specify the speaker distances (page 43) and adjust the individual speaker levels (page 44).

Only the front speakers produce sound?

When the Stereo listening mode is selected, only the front speakers and subwoofer produce sound.

When the Direct or Pure Audio listening mode is selected, only the front speakers produce sound.

Make sure the speakers are configured correctly (page 41).

Only the center speaker produces sound?

If you use the Pro Logic II Movie or Pro Logic II Music listening mode with a mono source, such as an AM radio station or mono TV program, the sound is concentrated in the center speaker.

Make sure the speakers are configured correctly (page 41).

The surround speakers produce no sound?

When the Stereo, Direct, or Pure Audio listening mode is selected, the surround speakers produce no sound (page 56).

Depending on the source and current listening mode, not much sound may be produced by the surround speakers. Try selecting another listening mode.

Make sure the speakers are configured correctly (page 41).

The center speaker produces no sound?

When the Mono, Stereo, Direct, or Pure Audio listen- ing mode is selected, the center speaker produces no sound (page 56).

When the Orchestra listening mode is selected, the center speaker produces no sound (page 57).

Make sure the speakers are configured correctly (page 41).

The surround back speakers produce no sound?

The surround back speakers are not used with all lis- tening modes. Select another listening mode

(page 56).

Not much sound may be produced by the surround back speakers with some sources.

If you are using the Dolby Digital EX or THX Sur- round EX listening mode, make sure that mode is set to On (see “Using the Digital Surround Modes” on page 60).

Make sure the speakers are configured correctly (page 41).

The subwoofer produces no sound?

When you play source material that contains no infor- mation in the LFE channel, the subwoofer produces no sound.

Make sure the speakers are configured correctly (page 41).
