Posted on Saturday, March 25, 2006 - 23:53 GMT If you connected speakers with an impedance rating other than 8 ohms or higher to that receiver, you may have put it on protection mode permanently. This can also be caused by speaker wires being crossed. Check the connections and reset.

Posted on Sunday, March 26, 2006 - 02:03 GMT What was the impedance rating of the speakers that you used? |

Posted on Sunday, March 26, 2006 - 04:32 GMT Unfortunately by doing what you did, you have damaged your Sony receiver. That unit is not designed to handle low impedances.
time to shop for a new unit. |

Posted on Monday, March 27, 2006 - 03:29 GMT Hopefully the replacement of the fuses will solve your problem. Others have not been so lucky. Just make sure that you replace them with the same value.
Good luck. |
