    What does PROTECTOR mean on my Sony Receiver?

      If you see “PROTECTOR” displayed, it might be because the receiver is covered and ventilation holes are blocked. Remove the object covering the upper panel of the receiver and turn on the power again.

    Why is there no sound from specific speakers on my Sony STR-DA3700ES Receiver?
    • A
      Andrew GreenAug 31, 2025
      If there's no sound from specific speakers on your Sony Receiver, try the following: * Connect headphones to the PHONES jack to verify that sound is output to the headphones. * If only one channel is output to the headphones, check that all the cords are fully inserted into the jacks on both the receiver and the equipment. * If both channels are output to the headphones, check the connection of the front speaker which is not outputting any sound. * Make sure you have connected both the L and R jacks to an monaural equipment, analog equipment requires both L and R jack connections. * Use a monaural-stereo cable (not supplied). However, there will be no sound from the center speaker when a sound field (Pro Logic, etc.) is selected.
