The PHASE CONTROL feature
doesn’t seem to have an
audible effect.
• If applicable, check that the lowpass filter switch on your subwoofer is off, or the
lowpass cutoff is set to the highest frequency setting. If there is a
PHASE setting on
your subwoofer, set it to 0º (or depending on the subwoofer, the setting where you
think it has the best overall effect on the sound).
• Make sure the speaker distance setting is correct for all speakers (see Speaker
Distance on page 43).
Considerable noise in radio
broadcasts. • Connect the antenna (page 18) and adjust the position for best reception.
• Route any loose cables away from the antenna terminals and wires.
• Fully extend the FM wire antenna, position for best reception, and secure to a wall
(or connect an outdoor FM antenna).
• Connect an additional internal or external AM antenna (page 18).
• Turn off equipment causing interference or move it away from the receiver (or
move antennas farther away from equipment causing noise).
Broadcast stations cannot be
selected automatically. • Connect an outdoor antenna (refer to page 18).
Noise during playback of a
cassette deck. • Move the cassette deck away from your receiver, until the noise disappears.
Sound is produced from other
components, but not from LD
or DVD player. • Set the SIGNAL SELECT to AUTO, DIGITAL or ANALOG according to the type of
connections made. (refer to page 33).
• Set the digital input settings correctly (refer to page 62).
• Make digital connections (refer to page 13) and set the
SIGNAL SELECT to
DIGITAL (refer to page 33).
• Refer to the instruction manual supplied with the DVD player.
No sound is output or a noise
is output when software with
DTS is played back. • Set the digital volume level of the player to full, or to the neutral position.
• Make sure the player's settings are correct and/or the DTS signal out is on. Refer
to the instruction manual supplied with the DVD player.
• Set the input signal type to
DIGITAL (see Choosing the input signal on page 33)
During a playback search,
noise is output from a DTS
compatible CD player. • This is not a malfunction, but be sure to turn the volume down to prevent the
output of loud noise from your speakers.
Everything seems to be set up
correctly, but the playback
sound is odd. Check that the positive/negative speaker terminals on the receiver are matched with
the corresponding terminals on the speakers (see Connecting the speakers on
page 19).
There seems to be a time lag
between the speakers and the
output of the subwoofer. • See Automatically setting up for surround sound (MCACC) on page 8 to set up your
system again using MCACC (this will automatically compensate for a delay in the
subwoofer output).
After using the Auto MCACC
Setup, the speaker size setting
(
LARGE or SMALL) is incorrect.
• Low-frequency noise could have been caused by an air conditioner or motor.
Switch off all appliances in the room and rerun the Auto MCACC Setup.
Can’t operate the remote
control. • Replace the batteries (refer to page 6).
• Operate within 7 m (23 ft.), 30° of the remote sensor (refer to page 27).
• Remove the obstacle or operate from another position.
• Avoid exposing the remote sensor on the front panel to direct light.
• Unplug anything connected to the
CONTROL IN jack and use remote normally
(see Operating other Pioneer components on page 47).
