When the Stereo or Mono listening mode is selected, 
only the front speakers and subwoofer produce 
sound.
Check the Speaker Configuration.
If you use the Dolby Pro Logic II Movie, Dolby Pro 
Logic II Music, or Dolby Pro Logic II Game 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.
When the T-D (Theater-Dimensional), Stereo or 
Mono listening mode is selected, the surround 
speakers produce no sound.
—
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.
When the Stereo or Mono listening mode is selected, 
the center speaker produces no sound.
—
Make sure the speakers are configured correctly.
When you play source material that contains no 
information in the LFE channel, the subwoofer 
produces no sound.
—
Make sure the speakers are configured correctly.
Check the digital audio output setting on the 
connected 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.
-
Depending on the number of connected speakers, it is 
not always possible to select all of the listening 
modes.
-
After the volume level of each individual speaker has 
been adjusted, the maximum volume may be reduced.
Using cable ties to bundle audio cables with power 
cords, speaker cables, and the like may degrade the 
audio performance, so refrain from doing it.
—
An audio cable may be picking up interference. Try 
repositioning your cables.
—
Make sure the source material is Dolby Digital, 
Dolby Digital Plus, and Dolby TrueHD.
When DTS program material ends and the DTS 
bitstream stops, the AV receiver remains in DTS 
listening 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.
—
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 
malfunction.
—
Since it takes longer to identify the format of an 
HDMI signal than it does for other digital audio 
signals, audio output may not start immediately.
