No Sound from front speakers, but rear speakers work

Receiver is set for ‘Ext 2Ch’ operation (See para 7.1).

By entering the OSD menu, selecting the input/output setup menu, the
Preamp out setting can be changed from ‘normal’ to ‘Ext. 2 Ch’. This disables
the internal amplifiers for the front channels when an external amplifier is
being used to drive those channels. Reset this to ‘Normal’ to restore sound.

Maximum or Minimum (mute) volume level can no
longer be achieved. (Display will not reach 0db or -
89db)

If the front left and right channels are adjusted using the OSD Level
Calibration (balance) settings up or down to provide an off-centre front sound
stage the result is that the maximum and minimum volume setting (the
setting and the db level displayed, not the actual amount of volume
achievable) is naturally limited by the same degree. (A small red ‘BAL’ icon
appears on the front panel display to show channel balance is now off-
centre). For example, adjusting the right channel to +10db will mean that the
maximum sound level is now reached when the display shows -10db (not 0db
as expected). Readjust the front right and left levels back to 0db to restore
full volume excursion.

An unusual hissing noise is heard when listening to a

A slight noise may be heard because the method used for modulation of FM
stereo broadcasts is different than that used for mono broadcasts.

Aerial quality also effects the level of hiss heard.

broadcasts

Reset this to ‘Normal’ to restore sound.
