  If you're not getting any sound from your JVC Home Theater System, several things could be the cause. First, the system cord or speaker cord might not be properly connected, so check those connections. Also, the audio cord may not be correctly connected to VCR IN or DIGITAL IN (DBS). Ensure you've selected the correct source on your system. Finally, the decode mode might not be set correctly; try selecting the proper decode mode.
