Ive bought new Sony STR DG720, and I'm having little issue with that.
I was fidling with optionsand Somehow the music options (Concert/live/....portable) messed up.
If I select any of those music options, output won't come from Center speaker. Center speaker with music was working before I fiddled with.
Now Center speaker is works fine with all other options other than Music (like AFD,Movies...).
When I test for connections , it looks good .
And Jamo 5.1 Speaker system along with that

Can somebody suggest me the solutions.

thanks

Re: Sony STR DG720- music option not working

I just set up this receiver for my brother yesterday. Funny...he was also complaining about the lack of center channel output, but in his case, he was watching CNN, which probably broadcasts in stereo. While I tried to explain that left and right front (no sound from center or surround) was correct for the broadcast, he insisted on center sound. The A.F.D. (auto format direct, whatever that's supposed to mean) has various soundfield modes that will cycle through by repeatedly pressing this button. Many of those include center channel sound. Have you tried those, Anil?

I haven't studied the manual yet myself very carefully, but was actually having kind of a reverse problem. Before I left his house, I couldn't figure out how to defeat the simulated soundfields altogether.

Hi Gary Miller, My Receiver works perfectly well in AFD mode ( various options) . My issue is center channel not working in MUSIC mode ( Music mode is like AFD option)
