  If your Yamaha Receiver fails to turn on or enters standby mode shortly after being powered on, there could be several reasons. First, ensure the power cable is firmly connected. Second, check that the speaker impedance setting matches your speakers. Third, verify that all speaker wire connections are secure and not touching anything other than their respective connections, as the protection circuitry might have been activated. Finally, if the unit experienced a strong electric shock, put it in standby mode, disconnect the power cable, wait 30 seconds, and then reconnect it.

  Clifford JohnsonAug 21, 2025
  If there is no sound from your Yamaha Receiver, check the following: Ensure the input and output cables are correctly connected, and if the problem continues, the cables may be defective. Set an appropriate Audio input jack select, or set Audio input jack select to “AUTO”. If you are playing a source encoded in Dolby Digital or DTS while Audio input jack select is set to “ANALOG,” switch to “COAX/OPT.” Also, make sure an appropriate input source is selected and that the front speakers are properly selected. Verify that the volume is not turned down or muted; press J MUTE or N VOLUME +/– to resume audio output. Finally, ensure the source signals can be reproduced by the unit.

  If your Yamaha Receiver suddenly enters standby mode, it may be due to overheating; wait about 1 hour for it to cool down before turning it back on. Alternatively, some digital signals might be input via the HDMI jack; try turning off the power of the component connected to the HDMI IN jacks.

  Daniel LeblancAug 26, 2025
  If you are not hearing sound from the center or surround speakers on your Yamaha Receiver, ensure that “CENTER SP” in “SPEAKER SET” is set to “SML” or “LRG”. Also, try another sound field program. Finally, check that “SUR. L/R SP” in “SPEAKER SET” is set to “SML” or “LRG” and “SUR.B L/R SP” is set to a setting other than “NONE”.

  susanchenAug 28, 2025
  If the sound from your Yamaha Receiver suddenly goes off, it could be due to a few reasons. The protection circuitry may have been activated because of a short circuit, so check that the impedance setting is correct. Alternatively, the sleep timer might have turned off the unit; if so, turn the unit back on and play the source again. Also, the sound could be muted; press J MUTE or N VOLUME +/– to resume audio output.

What to do if no sound from HDMI on Yamaha HTR-6150?
- S
  Samantha MorrisonAug 30, 2025
  If you are not hearing sound from the HDMI component connected to your Yamaha Receiver, it could be due to several reasons. The HDMI component might not accept multi-channel audio signals, in which case you should convert the multi-channel audio signals to 2-channel audio signals at the source component. Also, check to ensure that speaker cables are not short-circuited. Finally, the unit might be too close to digital or high-frequency equipment; try moving it further away.

  kevinwrightSep 6, 2025
  If you are experiencing noisy FM stereo reception with your Yamaha Receiver, check the antenna connections. Adjust the antenna position to eliminate multi-path interference. If using the automatic tuning method is not working, use a high-quality directional FM antenna. If previously preset stations can no longer be tuned into, set preset stations.

Why is the picture disturbed on my Yamaha HTR-6150?

  If the picture is disturbed when using your Yamaha Receiver, it may be because the video source uses scrambled or encoded signals to prevent dubbing. This is not a malfunction.
