New member Username: Jay_bPost Number: 1 Registered: Jan-10 | So i just got my sony str-dn1000 reciever, got everything hooked up and everything is great, except when i use the volume either on the reciever itself or the remote, turning it up or down, it mutes and says muting on the display screen on the reciever, i press the mute button, either on the remote or reciever itself, and you can hear sound for a split second then mutes again, also does it when i switch between modes (sat, bluray, hdmi1, hdmi2,ect) Anyone else own this reciever? it there something i have to switch on or off? the only way it works is if i turn the whole reciever on/off. i turn it on and the reciever sounds fine, i adjust the vol, or switch modes, it automatically mutes and i cant figure it out! did i get a lemon or what? |

I will admit to a deep distaste for Sony Corp but why would anyone buy Sony audio. Return it and check out something from Onkyo, Pioneer or Denon. http://www.usa.denon.com/ProductDetails/4858.asp |

New member Username: Blindmelon83Post Number: 1 Registered: Aug-10 | Same Problem. I'm posting this online merely to save people the time and frustration I went through. This "muting itself" problem - is actually a "feature". A feature no one wants. Press the "AMP MENU" button on your remote. Use the Up & Down Arrows. Choose "SET HDMI" - then "CTRL HDMI" - set it to "OFF". You're done. Not just this forum - but every other forum - people suggest that it's no good because it's Sony...I just hope my 20 second solution saves people from returning the item - because it's actually quite nice when it's all set up. |
