      If there is no sound or only a very low-level sound from specific speakers, connect a pair of headphones to the PHONES jack to verify that sound is output from the headphones. If only one channel is output from the headphones, the equipment may not be connected to the receiver correctly. Check that all the cords are fully inserted into the jacks on both the receiver and the equipment. If both channels are output from the headphones, the front speaker may not be connected to the receiver correctly. Check the connection of the front speaker which is not outputting any sound.

    • A
      Amy OsborneNov 26, 2025
      If there is no sound from a specific equipment, first check that the equipment is correctly connected to the audio input jacks for that equipment and that the cords are fully inserted into the jacks on both the receiver and the equipment. Check the INPUT MODE and adjust it as needed. Also, ensure the equipment is correctly connected to the HDMI jack. Note that you cannot listen to Super Audio CD by connecting HDMI; use an alternative connection. Depending on the playback equipment, you may need to set up the HDMI setting of the equipment. Be sure to use a High Speed HDMI cable when you view images or listen to sound, especially for the 1080p, Deep Color (Deep Colour) or 3D transmission. Sound may not be output from the receiver while the GUI appears on the TV screen, so deactivate the GUI ...

    Why does my Sony STR-DN1030 have no image output in standby mode?
    • B
      burtonryanSep 2, 2025
      When the receiver enters into standby mode, image is from the last HDMI equipment selection before you turned off the receiver. If you are enjoying other equipment, play the equipment and perform the One-Touch Play operation, or turn on the receiver to select the HDMI equipment you want to enjoy. If you connect equipment not compatible with the “BRAVIA” Sync to the receiver, set “Pass Through” to “ON” in the HDMI Settings menu.

    What to do if there is no sound from my Sony Receiver?
    • C
      Craig SparksAug 25, 2025
      If you are experiencing no sound from your Sony Receiver, ensure all connecting cords are securely inserted into the input/output jacks of the receiver, speakers, and equipment. Also, verify that both the receiver and all connected equipment are turned on. Check that the MASTER VOLUME control is not set to 'VOL MIN' and that the SPEAKERS are set to 'ON'. Ensure headphones are not connected, and the muting function is off. Try selecting the desired input equipment. If you want to listen to the sound from the TV speaker, set the 'Audio Out' to 'TV+AMP' in the HDMI Settings menu. Sound may be interrupted when the sampling frequency, the number of channels or audio format of audio output signals from the playback equipment is switched, so adjust the audio settings to stabilize the output.
