What to do if my Yamaha DVX-S100 Home Theater System does not operate properly?
If your unit isn't operating properly, the internal microcomputer may have been frozen by an external electric shock or a power supply with low voltage. Disconnect the AC power cord from the outlet and then plug it in again after about 30 seconds.
What causes poor bass reproduction on my Yamaha DVX-S100 Home Theater System?
Poor bass reproduction can occur if the speaker mode settings (front, center, or rear) on the SET MENU do not match your speaker configuration. Select the appropriate position for each speaker based on the size of the speakers in your configuration.
What to do if the sound suddenly goes off on my Yamaha DVX-S100?
If the sound suddenly goes off, it's possible that the sleep timer has activated. Turn the power back on and play the source again.
Why is there no sound from the rear speakers of my Yamaha Home Theater System?
If there's no sound from the rear speakers, ensure that the output level of the rear speakers is not set to minimum and raise the output level if needed. Also, if a monaural source is being played with program 9, select another DSP program.
What causes a humming sound from my Yamaha Home Theater System, and how can I fix it?
A humming sound can be caused by incorrect cable connections. Firmly connect the audio plugs; if the problem persists, the cables may be defective.
Why can I only hear the speaker on one side of my Yamaha DVX-S100 Home Theater System?
If you can only hear the speaker on one side, the cable connections may be incorrect. Connect the cables properly; if the problem persists, the cables may be defective.
Why is there no sound from the center speaker of my Yamaha DVX-S100?
If there is no sound from the center speaker, first, check that the output level of the center speaker isn't set to minimum and raise the level if needed. Second, ensure that “1A CENTER” on the SET MENU is set to the appropriate mode for your center speaker. Lastly, if one of the Hi-Fi DSP programs (1 to 4) has been selected (except for 5ch Stereo), select another DSP program.
What to do if the picture does not appear on my Yamaha Home Theater System?
If the picture does not appear, ensure that the output and input for the picture are connected to the same types of video jacks (S VIDEO or VIDEO (composite)) for both input and output.
Why is there no sound from the subwoofer of my Yamaha DVX-S100?
If there's no sound from the subwoofer, check the “1D BASS” setting on the SET MENU. If it's set to FRONT when playing a Dolby Digital or DTS signal, select SWFR or BOTH. If it's set to SWFR or FRONT when playing a 2-channel source, select BOTH.
Why is there sound only from the front speakers of my Yamaha Home Theater System?
Sound might be coming only from the front speakers if the sound effect is off; press STEREO to turn it on. Also, if you're using a Dolby Surround, Dolby Digital, or DTS decoding DSP program with material not encoded with these formats, select another DSP program. Finally, if a 96-kHz sampling digital signal is being input, sound will only output from the front speakers.
