Troubleshooting

If you have any trouble using the
HTX-22HDX, look for a solution in this sec-
tion. If you can’t resolve the issue yourself,
contact your Onkyo dealer.

Can’t turn on the HTX-22HDX

• Make sure that the power cord is plugged into

the wall outlet properly.

• Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet,

wait 5 seconds or more, then plug it back in
again.

There’s no sound or it’s very quiet

• Make sure you’ve selected the appropriate

input (page 28).

• Check the volume (page 28). The

HTX-22HDX is designed for home theater
enjoyment and has a wide volume range for
precise adjustment.

• Make sure that all audio connecting plugs are

pushed in all the way (page 18).

• Make sure that the cables are properly con-

nected to the output jacks on the source com-
ponent.

• Make sure that the polarity of the speaker

cables is correct, and that the bare wire is in
contact with the metal part of each speaker ter-
minal (page 16).

• Make sure that the speaker cables are not

shorting.

• Check the digital audio output settings on the

source component. On some game consoles,
such as those that can play DVDs, the default
setting is off.

• With some DVD-Video discs, you need to

select an audio format from a menu or with the
AUDIO button on your Blu-ray/DVD
player/recorder’s remote controller.

• If your turntable doesn’t have a phono preamp

built-in, you must connect one between it and
the HTX-22HDX.

• If your turntable uses an MC cartridge, you

must connect an MC head amp, or an MC
transformer and a phono preamp.

• Check the speaker configuration (page 39).
• If there’s no sound from a Blu-ray/DVD

player/recorder connected to an HDMI IN,
check its output settings, and be sure to select
a compatible audio format.

Only the front speakers produce sound

• When the Stereo or Mono listening mode is

selected, only the front speakers and sub-
woofer produce sound.

• Check the Speaker Configuration (page 39).

Only the center speaker produces sound

• If you use the Dolby Pro Logic II listening

mode with a mono source, such as an AM
radio station or mono TV program, the sound
will be concentrated in the center speaker.

• Check the Speaker Configuration (page 39).

The center speaker produces no sound

• When the Stereo or Mono listening mode is

selected, the center speaker produces no
sound.

• Check the Speaker Configuration (page 39).

The surround speakers produce no sound

• When the Stereo or Mono listening mode is

selected, the surround speakers produce no
sound.

• Depending on the source and the current lis-

tening mode, not much sound may be pro-
duced by the surround speakers. Try another
listening mode (page 32).

• Check the Speaker Configuration (page 39).
