Other audio problems
Sound is produced from analog
components, but not from digital
ones (DVD, LD, CD-ROM etc.). • The digital input assignment is wrong. • Assign the digital inputs correctly (see Assigning the
digital inputs on page 83).
• The digital components aren't connected
properly. • Make sure you have properly connected the digital
component to the corresponding input on the back of the
amplifier (see
Connecting your equipment on page 12).
• The player is not compatible with the source
you're using, or the player settings are
incorrect. • Choose a compatible source, or check the component’s
manual for the correct settings.
• The digital output level has been turned
down on a CD player or other component
equipped with digital output level adjustment
capability. • Set the digital volume level of the player to full, or to the
neutral position.
• Analog input has been selected. • Select digital input (see Selecting the input signal type
on page 44).
When playing an LD the input
signal type is 2
RF but there is
still no sound.
The LD is not a Dolby Digital compatible disc. • Set the input signal to AUTO (see Selecting the input
signal type on page 44). Also make sure your LD player is
hooked up with analog connections in addition to digital
and 2
RF connections (see Connecting other video
sources on page 19).
No sound output from the
headphones. The U-shaped connectors that connect the
POWER AMP IN terminals to the front
channel pre-outs are not connected. • Reconnect the POWER AMP IN terminals to the front
channel pre-outs using the supplied U-shaped connectors
(see item 8 in
Rear panel on page 12).
No sound is output or a noise is
output when Dolby Digital/DTS
software is played back. • A DVD player not compatible with Dolby
Digital/DTS is being used. • Make sure your DVD player is compatible with Dolby
Digital/DTS.
• The settings on the DVD player are incorrect
and/or the DTS signal output is turned off. • Make sure the player's settings are correct and/or the
DTS signal out is on. Refer to the instruction manual
supplied with the DVD player.
• The digital output level is turned down on a
CD player or other component equipped with
digital output level adjustment capability. (The
DTS signal has been altered by the player, and
cannot be read.) • Set the digital volume level of the player to full, or to the
neutral position.
No digital output from the DVD
player when playing a
multichannel DVD-Audio or
SACD disc. • DVD players do not output digital audio
when playing these kinds of discs. • To enjoy fully multichannel DVD-Audio and SACD discs,
connect your DVD player to this amplifier through the
multichannel analog inputs. See
Connecting the
multichannel analog outputs on page 16 and also the
operating instructions that came with your DVD player.
No digital output when playing a
192/176.4 kHz sampling rate
DVD-Audio disc. • DVD players do not output digital audio at
these sampling rates. Usually, players output
the audio from these discs at a downsampled
rate of 96/88.2 kHz or 48/44.1 kHz. Some discs
prohibit all digital output. • This is not a malfunction. To enjoy fully these discs,
connect your DVD player to this amplifier through the
multichannel analog inputs. See
Connecting the
multichannel analog outputs on page 16 and also the
operating instructions that came with your DVD player.
During playback of a Dolby
Surround EX / DTS ES
soundtrack, the
LS, S and RS
indicators light but there is no
surround back channel sound.
• The listening mode is not set correctly. • Set the surround back channel to SB CH AUTO (see
Using the surround back channel on page 46).
Symptom Cause Remedy
Symptom Cause Remedy
Noise is output when scanning a
DTS CD. • The scan function performed by the player
slightly alters the digital information, making
it unreadable. • This is not a malfunction, but be sure to turn the volume
down to prevent the output of loud noise from your
speakers.
When playing a 96 kHz/24bit disc
the sound is too loud. • Different discs have different recording
levels so some may be louder than others. • Turn the volume down.
When playing a DTS format LD
there is audible noise on the
soundtrack. • The input signal type is set to ANALOG. • Set the input signal type to DIGITAL (see Selecting the
input signal type on page 44)
