[239] Troubleshooting
Sound
No sound or only a very low level of sound is heard
from specific speakers.
Connect a pair of headphones to the PHONES jack to verify that sound is output from the
headphones. If only one channel is output from the headphones, the device may not be
connected to the receiver correctly. Check that all of the cables are fully inserted into the
jacks on both the receiver and the device.
If both channels are output from the headphones, the front speaker may not be connected
to the receiver correctly. Check the connection of the front speaker that is not outputting
any sound.
Make sure you have connected to both the L and R jacks of an analog device, as analog
devices require both L and R jack connections. Use an audio cable (not supplied).
Adjust the speaker level.
Check that the speaker settings are appropriate for the setup using [Auto Calibration] or
[Speaker Pattern] in the [Speaker Settings] menu. Then check that sound is output from
each speaker correctly using [Test Tone] in the [Speaker Settings] menu.
Some discs have no Dolby Digital Surround EX information. In this case, sound may not be
output from some speakers.
Check that the subwoofer is connected correctly and securely.
Make sure you have turned on your subwoofer.
Depending on the selected sound field, sound may not be available from the subwoofer.
Depending on the source, there may be no sound from the subwoofer when all speakers
are set to [Large] and [Neo:6 Cinema] or [Neo:6 Music] is selected.
