  If you're not getting stereo sound on your Sanyo DVD VCR Combo, several factors could be at play. First, the broadcast program might not be in stereo. Also, check your connections: ensure the DVD VCR's A/V Out jacks are correctly connected to your TV's A/V In jacks. Make sure you've selected the correct input (AUX or A/V) on your TV. Finally, verify that the DVD VCR's BROADCAST TYPE mode is set to STEREO, not SAP or MONO. If the BROADCAST TYPE mode is set to SAP or MONO, set it to STEREO.
