Hello, new guy, I'm a little hard of hearing and got a Yamaha HTR 2067 system at Christmas in hopes of hearing dialog better, background music would drowned it out. so I just installed the rear speaker running the wires inside the walls and realized that with regular TV shows or the News that are not broadcast in 5.1 I get nothing from the back speakers. Is there a setting that will turn on the sound for all speakers all the time? even if its not 5.1.
I know I should get hearing aids but those puppies will set me back $1500 dollars

Hi moviedog, first off I have to say that I don't own or seen this receiver in person. But I want to help and like to know if besides connecting the rear speakers, did you go into the receiver's setup option to turn on the surround speakers? And if you have, did you check in the same setup menu the volume setting of those speakers as well as the others so you get the levels you like? And if you have, I see your receiver has a 5 channel stereo option where the source is output to all 5 speakers - just press the MUSIC button repeatedly (there are 9 music sound options available) until you see the 5-channel stereo option. Let us know how it goes.
