  Marcus ThomasAug 28, 2025
  If there is no sound from the surround back (or front height) speakers on your Sherwood Stereo Receiver, it could be due to several reasons: * The input signal format or current surround mode may not support 7.1 (or 6.1) surround. * The surround back channels' power amplifier might be assigned to "BIAMP" or "ROOM 2". * The master volume and surround back (or front height) level might be too low. * The surround back (or front height) speaker setting might be set to "NO". Adjust the settings accordingly.
