I just bought a set of Axiom speakers, the Epic Grand Master 350, and bought a new Denon 3806 and tried to hook it all up last night. I was testing a DVD using the optical connection on the receiver. I had specified which optical is going to the DVD and I'm getting very very low volume. The test tone on the receiver plays loud and clear on all the speakers. Just to rule out that the DVD player might be the problem I plugged my iPod into the aux port on the front of the receiver and got the same thing. I've tried all modes and settings on the receiver, made sure muting wasn't on even. I've checked my cables twice and reconnected them too. Nothing works. I called the guys at Axiom even though I'm sure it has nothing to do with their speakers. Joe was kind enough to help me anyway. He thinks it's either a short at the speaker or receiver connection or a bad receiver. Luckily a friend brought his Marantz receiver in today for me to take home and test. I hope it's just a bad receiver. Anyone have any ideas? Have you heard of this kind of thing before?
