To record sound from your Onkyo Receiver, if you can hear it from the speakers but cannot record it, connect the AV component using analog connections. Also, select the correct input source on your recorder, referring to your recorder’s manual for more information.
What to do if my Onkyo TX-SR501E Receiver shuts down immediately after being turned on?
If your Onkyo Receiver shuts down immediately after being turned on, the amp protection system has likely been activated. Contact your Onkyo dealer for assistance.
What to do if the buttons on my Onkyo Receiver and remote controller don’t work?
If the buttons on your Onkyo Receiver and remote controller aren't working, it could be due to power supply voltage fluctuations or other anomalies like static electricity. To resolve this, turn off the receiver, wait for five seconds, and then turn it back on. If that doesn't work, disconnect the power cord from the wall outlet, wait five seconds, reconnect it, and then try turning it on again.
Why are the buttons on my Onkyo Receiver remote not working?
If your Onkyo Receiver remote controller buttons aren't working but the receiver's buttons are, consider the following: * Ensure the correct remote controller mode is selected. * Check and replace the batteries in the remote controller. * Make sure the batteries are installed correctly. * Point the remote controller directly at the receiver's remote sensor. * Use the remote controller within its operational range (approximately 16 ft or 5 meters). * Ensure that no strong light sources are interfering with the receiver's remote sensor. Relocate the receiver if necessary.
Why are only the front speakers working on my Onkyo Receiver?
If only the front speakers are working on your Onkyo Receiver, it might be because the Stereo listening mode is selected. In this mode, only the front speakers and the subwoofer are active.
Why don't the tuner presets work on my Onkyo TX-SR501E Receiver?
If the tuner presets on your Onkyo Receiver no longer work, preset your favorite radio stations again. Ensure the power cord is plugged into a wall outlet a few times each month to preserve the presets.
How to fix high-pitched noise on Onkyo TX-SR501E Receiver?
To fix AM reception hindered by a high-pitched noise on your Onkyo Receiver, move the AM loop antenna as far away as possible from your TV.
How to improve FM reception on Onkyo Receiver?
To improve poor FM reception and stereo separation on your Onkyo Receiver, even when the TUNING and FM STEREO indicators are shown, try using an FM antenna with better directionality.
Why is there no picture on the TV or monitor from my Onkyo TX-SR501E Receiver?
If there's no picture on your TV or monitor when using the Onkyo Receiver, check these: * Ensure the TV's input selector is set to the correct input (the one to which the receiver is connected). * Verify that the video cable is properly connected. * Note that the receiver doesn't convert between video formats; ensure the video input and output formats match.
Why can’t I hear an AV component on my Onkyo TX-SR501E?
If you can't hear an AV component connected to your Onkyo Receiver, make sure you've selected the correct input source.
