According to the manual - The DRX-730 downmixes multi-channel sources, such as Dolby Digital and DTS, into a 2-channel stereo mix that you can enjoy through the speakers connected to the DRX-730. This is simply not working. What I get is the front 2 channels from 5.1 and no dialog etc that...

I have a DP870 Digital Processor and an SR770 AVR connected through RC-5. The remote enables me to power off/on both at the same time. The remote is primarily for the SR770 but I was wondering if there was any way to use it to select the inputs on the DP870. Any advice appreciated.

I am trying to use the same pair of speakers for both my AVR and my Stereo setups. The speakers are connected to my Denon PMA-360 amp. I would like to also use these speakers as fronts for my AVR (Pioneer VSX-322). I have several devices connected via HDMI to the AVR and then by HDMI to the...

I have a Samsung BD-H6500 Blu-ray player and a Pioneer VSX-322-K AVR but I cannot get the signal to pass through to the TV. Other devices (laptop and Chromecast) work OK. Everything is connected using HDMI cables. I have tried different HDMI cables between the BD player and the AVR and...

I have a Marantz SR-770 AVR, but no manual. I would like to use the Multi-Room function and have figured out how to select the second source but am unsure how to get the signal to the 'other' room. I may have this totally wrong, but do I need to connect one set of pre-outs to another amp which...

I have been given a Sansui San110 5.1 Channel Digital Amplifier and the accompanying 5.1 set of speakers. No manual, no remote. The amp has a single RCA type connection marked Sub Out and the powered sub has a Single RCA type connection marked Line In. I guess I just connect the two, is that...

Does anyone know where I can get a User Manual (in English) for a Marantz SR770 A/V Receiver?

I decided to add surround sound capabilities to the SR770 which does not have a digital input but requires 6 channel direct inputs. I therefore purchased a 5.1 SPDIF Decoder for HD AC3 DTS Digital Audio and connected the outputs on this to the inputs on the SR770. Note - I am not using a...

According to another forum you can connect an EQ to this AVR. The connections I assume are the same as that for an integrated amp (thru Tape 2), but I cannot see anywhere on the Marantz where you can turn the monitoring on and off. Any suggestions?

OK, this was a really dumb thing to do. I purchased an old Marantz 74SR770/02 (commonly called a SR-770) as I was going to use the front pre-outs to connect to speakers on another amp. I didn't bother to look at what inputs the Marantz has and I now see that for surround sound it only has...

I was wanting to share a pair of speakers between my Denon PMA-360 and Kenwood KRF-V5550D, but as the Kenwood doesn't have pre-outs for the front speakers and I would prefer not having to buy an amplifier switch I am thinking of getting a (second-hand and inexpensive) replacement AVR that does...

In the absence of decent RCA audio cables to connect a device (e.g. CD player) to an amp, could you use digital coax cables? If so what effect on the quality of the signal is likely?

Are the inputs on an amp (CD, Aux, Tuner) specific to those devices or can they be interchanged? e.g. Can you connect an Aux to the Tuner input and vice versa?I realise that Phono inputs are generally specific.

Yes, I know it's an oldie but goodie.Speaker/Headphone outputs (both front and back) on PC connected to AVR or Amp produces discernible hum through the speakers. Cable is 3,5mm to RCA.All devices are on the same power circuit and I have thrown a ground loop isolator in there for good...

Lurking around various forums I notice that many people have multiple amps in the setups.Without being facetious, why?Do you use different amps for different purposes depending on the input?Do you have a different set of speakers connected to each amp, or do you use the same speakers, connecting...

Audio into the Kenwood comes from the TV via Digital Coax to the input labelled Video 2 Monitor Coaxial. No problems with that -all sounds as it should. I now want to send the audio to another device but am having problems with this.Yesterday I connected the Video 2 Rec Out to the other device...

I am running XBMC on my Toshiba Laptop (Win 8.1) and looking at including Live TV, but need an external TV Tuner to accomplish this. I assume that the TV Tuner would need to be connected to my digital STB through HDMI to get the best picture.Any ideas or recommendations?If you need any more...

My Pioneer VSX-322 has CD-R/Tape Audio Out connectors for (according to the manual) CD-R, MD, DAT, tape recorder or other audio component.Before I look at recording gear, some basic questions -If I want to check the audio quality from the outputs, could I connect them to the inputs on another...

I have a Pioneer VSX-322 and the surround back speakers are connected from the Pre Out connections to the AUX input on a Mitsubishi M-P04 Pre Amp which is then connected to a Mitsubishi M-A04 Power Amp. The speakers are then connected to the Power Amp. This works fine.However, I have an...

I have a Pioneer VSX-322 receiver with HD Digital TV box, Laptop and Blu-Ray player attached through HDMI to the TV. No problems with the video.My room is only about 9' by 12' and I don't have much room so my speakers are small.I am currently using 2 x Sony SS-SR88 at the front with a Sony...

I have a Mitsubishi Pre Amp M-P04 and a Mitsubishi Power Amp M-A04.On the back of the Pre Amp are two connections labelled Switched / Power Amp / Total 300W Max and another labelled Unswitched / 300W Max.What are these connections for?

I have a Pioneer VSX-322 receiver which has a two Pre Out Surround Back connections which I believe need to be connected to an amplifier and then to the speakers. What sort of amplifier do I need? Would an amplifier with integrated Pre Amp (such as used to connect a Phono) be OK?

I have a Pioneer VSX-322 receiver which has a single Pre Out Sub connection. I am looking at buying something similar to a Bowers & Wilkins ASW 10cm Subwoofer which has two line in connections. How do I connect the two pieces of equipment and what cable do I need? Thanks in advance for any advice.
