Pioneer AV Receiver problem
Hi,
I have a Pioneer Elite VSX-43 AV Receiver, which I had bought less than 2 years ago. Here is the history followed by the problem: It was working excellent, until I took out all the connections, cleaned up the rack in which the receiver was sitting (not with any solution of course), cleaned up my room, and put all the connections back in place. No problem with that. But I did not turn on the receiver yet, which I probably should have then. I went out of the country. Came back after a couple of months. Now, I turn the receiver on (I have Atlantic Technology home theater speakers connected to it), only to find it switches itself off once the sound starts to come in from tv/dvd/tape. So I left it on for a couple of hours, then come back, and tried playing my dvd. Now, it plays for 30-40 seconds, and turns itself off. Now, if I switch to stereo mode, then there's no problem: It keeps the power on, I can hear music etc. Once I start to set the music/movie modes to ROCK, 5ChannelMode, THX etc etc, the receiver turns itslef off. I checked all the connections and they are perfect. I don't understand why the receiver turns itself off once the sound signal from the dvd/tv/tape starts coming in. FYI: I have tried both analog and digital connections. Please, I would really appreciate any kind of help. Thanks, -Vijay |

Sound like an issue when it's in multi-speaker mode then. Have you
tried disconnecting any surround speakers, leaving just the main stereo pair attached, and letting it switch to any of the surround settings? If so does it exhibit the same problem? Doc |

Oh yes... now it works like a charm. I removed all the speakers, and
one by one, started to connect them. It turned out that my left surround speaker had it's +ve and -ve wires touching each other. I adjusted it, and the receiver is doing great now. Thanks to everyone for your timely help. I just got married and returned, and I did not want to look like a slump in front of my wife!!!! Thanks once again... |
