Troubleshooting—Continued

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

Check the Speaker Configuration (page 82).

While Powered Zone 2 is being used, playback in the main room is reduced to 5.1-channels and the sur- round back speakers produce no sound (page 94).

The subwoofer produces no sound

If the source material contains no audio in the LFE channel, the subwoofer produces no sound.

Check the Speaker Configuration (page 82).

The Zone 2 speakers produce no sound

The Zone 2 speakers only output sources that are con- nected to an analog input. Check to see if the source component is connected to an analog input.

Powered Zone 2 cannot be used if Speaker Type is set to Bi-Amp (page 43).

There’s no sound with a certain signal format

Check the digital audio output setting on the source component. On some game consoles, such as those that can play DVDs, the default setting is off.

With some DVD-Video discs, you need to select an audio format from a menu or with the Audio button on your DVD player’s remote controller.

Can’t get 6.1- or 7.1-channel playback

While Powered Zone 2 is being used, playback in the main room is reduced to 5.1-channels and the sur- round back speakers produce no sound (page 94).

The volume cannot be set to 79

Check to see if a maximum volume has been set (page 88).

After the Automatic Speaker Setup function has been run, or the volume level of each individual speaker has been adjusted (pages 39 and 85), the maximum vol- ume may be reduced.

When the levels of each speaker have been adjusted (page 85), the maximum possible volume may be reduced.

When the Equalizer setting (page 86) is set to Audys- sey, the maximum possible volume is reduced by

6 dB.

Noise can be heard

Using cable ties to bundle audio cables with power cords, speaker cables, and so on can degrade audio performance, so don’t use them.

An audio cable may be picking up interference. Try repositioning your cables.

The Late Night function doesn’t work

Make sure that the source is Dolby Digital or Dolby TrueHD (page 79).

The analog multichannel input doesn’t work

Check the multichannel input connections (page 26).

Make sure that the multichannel input is selected (page 48).

Check the audio output settings on your DVD player.

About DTS signals

When playing DTS program material, using the pause, fast forward, or fast reverse function on your player may produce a short audible noise. This is not a mal- function.

When DTS program material ends and the DTS bit- stream stops, the AV receiver remains in DTS listen- ing mode and the DTS indicator remains on. This is to prevent noise when you use the pause, fast forward, or fast reverse function on your player. If you switch your player from DTS to PCM, as the AV receiver does not switch formats immediately, you may not hear any- thing, in which case you should stop your player for about 3 seconds, and then resume playback.

With some CD players, you won’t be able to playback DTS material properly even though your player is con- nected to a digital input on the AV receiver. This is usually because the DTS bitstream has been processed (e.g., output level, sampling rate, or frequency response changed) and the AV receiver doesn’t recog- nize it as a genuine DTS signal. In such cases, you may hear noise.

The beginning of audio received by an HDMI IN can’t be heard

Since it takes longer to identify the format of an HDMI signal than it does for other digital audio sig- nals, sound may not be output immediately.

Video

There’s no picture

Make sure that all video connecting plugs are pushed in all the way (page 21).

Make sure that each video component is properly con- nected.

On your TV, make sure that the video input to which the AV receiver is connected is selected.

If the video source is connected to an HDMI input, you must assign that input to an input selector (page 44), and your TV must be connected to the HDMI OUT (page 32).

If the video source is connected to a component video input, you must assign that input to an input selector (page 45), and your TV must be connected to either the HDMI OUT or COMPONENT VIDEO OUT (page 32, 24).

If the video source is connected to an S-Video or com- posite video input, your TV must be connected to the HDMI OUT or the corresponding S-Video or compos- ite video output (page 32, 24).

There’s no picture from a source connected to an HDMI IN

Reliable operation with an HDMI-to-DVI adapter is not guaranteed. In addition, video signals from a PC are not supported (page 32).
