Troubleshooting

—Continued

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 46).

There’s no sound with a certain signal format?

• Check the digital audio output setting on the con-

nected device. On some game 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.

• Depending on the input signal, some listening modes

cannot be selected (page 61).

Can’t select the DTS-ES Discrete/Matrix listen-
ing modes?

• These modes cannot be selected when no surround

back speakers are connected, or the Zone 2 speakers
are being used.

• You can not always select all of the listening modes,

depending on the number of the speaker connected
(page 61).

Can’t get 6.1 playback?

• If no surround back speakers are connected, or the

Zone 2 speakers are being used, 6.1 playback is not
possible.

• You can not always select all of the listening modes,

depending on the number of the speakers connected
(page 61).

The volume cannot be set to 99?

• When the levels of all speakers have been calibrated

(page 50), the maximum volume setting may change.

Noise can be heard?

• Using cable ties to bundle audio cables with power

cords, speaker cables, and so on may degrade the
audio performance, so don’t do it.

• An audio cable may be picking up interference. Try

repositioning your cables.

The Late Night function doesn’t work?

• Make sure the source material is Dolby Digital

(page 64).

The DVD analog multichannel input doesn’t
work?

• Check the DVD analog multichannel input connec-

tions (page 29).

• To select the DVD analog multichannel input, press

the [MULTI CH] input selector button.

• Check the audio output settings on your DVD player.

About DTS signals

• 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, because the AV
receiver does not switch formats immediately, you
may not hear any sound, in which case you should
stop your player for about three seconds, and then
resume playback.

• With some CD and LD players, you won’t be able to

playback DTS material properly even though your
player is connected 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 recognize it as a genuine DTS signal. In such
cases, you may hear noise.

• 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.

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.

• If your video component is connected to a component

video input, your TV must be connected to the com-
ponent video output (page 26).

• On your TV, make sure that the video input to which

the AV receiver is connected is selected.

• While the Pure Audio listening mode (not all models)

is selected, the video circuits are turned off and the AV
receiver outputs no video signals.

The onscreen menus don’t appear?

• Make sure that the video settings are correct

(page 44).

• On your TV, make sure that the video input to which

the AV receiver is connected is selected.
