Default JVC RX-515V Receiver - Blown Center Channel

IT HAPPENED AGAIN!!


This morning I turned on my replacement RX-515V, and it sounded
suspiciously low. I pressed "Test" for the surround sound pink
noise, and sure enough, center channel dead.


It seems these receivers have a history of blowing center
channel outputs. And no, I'm not over-driving it. Even JVC
themselves no longer service 20 year old receivers. They
can't even look up this model number!


Is it possible you have some problem in your load (speaker) that's
causing it?


I realized after I posted this that you are probably saying that the
channel was blown before you bought it. However, it is possible that a
problem in your load (short or near-short?) could blow it shortly after
first turn-on.
