Symptom Remedy
Broadcast stations cannot be
selected automatically, or there is
considerable noise in radio
broadcasts.
For FM broadcasts
• Fully extend the FM wire antenna, adjust the position for best reception and secure to a wall, etc.
• Use an outdoor antenna for better reception (see page 20).
For AM broadcasts
• Adjust the position and direction of the AM antenna.
• Use an outdoor antenna for better reception (see page 20).
• Noise may be caused by interference from other equipment, such as a fluorescent light, motor, etc.
Switch off or move the other equipment, or move the AM antenna.
A multichannel DVD source
appears to be downmixed to 2
channels during playback.
• Make sure that the multichannel analog inputs are selected (see
Selecting the multichannel analog inputs
on page 53).
Noise is output when scanning a
DTS CD.
• This is not a malfunction of the receiver. The scan function of your player alters the digital information,
making it unreadable, resulting in noise being output. Lower the volume when scanning.
When playing a DTS format LD
there is audible noise on the
soundtrack.
• Make sure that the input signal type is set to
DIGITAL
(see
Choosing the input signal
on page 31).
Can't record audio. • You can only make a digital recording from a digital source, and an analog recording from an analog
source.
• For digital sources, make sure that what you’re recording isn’t copy protected.
• Check that the
OUT
jacks are properly connected to the recorders input jacks (see
Connecting analog
audio sources
on page 16).
Recorded audio is different from
the current source, or inaudible.
• The
RECOUT
source is set to an input source other than the source you’re listening to. Select
RECOUT
SOURCE
to record the current input source (see
Playing a different source when recording
on page 68).
Subwoofer output is very low. • To route more signal to the subwoofer, set it to
PLUS
or set the front speakers to
SMALL
(see
Speaker
Setting
on page 45).
Everything seems to be set up
correctly, but the playback sound
is odd.
• The speakers may be out of phase. Check that the positive/negative speaker terminals on the receiver are
matched with the corresponding terminals on the speakers (see
Connecting the speakers
on page 17).
The
PHASE CONTROL
feature
doesn’t seem to have an audible
effect.
• If applicable, check that the lowpass filter switch on your subwoofer is off, or the lowpass cutoff is set to
the highest frequency setting. If there is a
PHASE
setting on your subwoofer, set it to 0º (or depending on
the subwoofer, the setting where you think it has the best overall effect on the sound).
• Make sure the speaker distance setting is correct for all speakers (see
Speaker Distance
on page 46).
Noise or hum can be heard even
when there is no sound being
input.
• Check that personal computers or other digital components connected to the same power source are not
causing interference.
There seems to be a time lag
between the speakers and the
output of the subwoofer.
• See
Automatically setting up for surround sound (MCACC)
on page 7 to set up your system again using
MCACC (this will automatically compensate for a delay in the subwoofer output).
The maximum volume available
(shown in the front panel display)
is lower than the
+12dB
maximum.
• This is not a malfunction. If the levels in
Channel Level
on page 45 have been adjusted, the maximum
volume will change accordingly.
