I just bought a Marantz SR-8200 and I'm having some trouble with the analog hookups. I'm hoping that it is something that I'm missing and not a bad unit. I've connected my sattelite (digital), Playstation 2 (digital), CD player (digital and analog), and tape deck (analog) without any problems. However, I cannot get the analog inputs to work for VCR1, VCR2, or TV. For example, when I hook up my VCR to the VCR1 Inputs, I get the picture via S-Video, but no sound. Likewise, no sound if I connect to VCR2 or TV. I get the sound just fine though, when I connect the analog inputs to the tape input. I set each of the problematic inputs to "ANA" in the setup screen and also tried some of the "auto" settings, but no sound comes through, just the picture.
Another thing: for CD I can connect both analog and digital and switch between them with the A/D button. For DSS, the sound is fine via digital, but the analog inputs give no sound when I switch to them.
Does anyone know if there is a way to wake up these analog inputs or something else that I can test to see if I have a bad unit? I just spent about 10 hours rebuilding everything from the ground up in my system, and I hate the idea of tearing it all down and driving over an hour back to the shop.
Thanks in advance,
Chris
