What to do if there is no sound from my Yamaha Receiver?
If there is no sound from your Yamaha Receiver, check the input and output cable connections to ensure they are properly connected. Select the appropriate input source using the Input selector buttons. Make sure the SPEAKERS A/B switches are correctly set. Ensure speaker connections are secure and that the mute function is deactivated. Verify that the MAX VOL or INITIAL VOLUME setting is not set too low. Lastly, confirm that the component corresponding to the selected input source is turned on and playing.
Why does the sound suddenly go off on my Yamaha R-S201 Receiver?
The sound on your Yamaha Receiver might suddenly go off because the protection circuitry has been activated due to a short circuit. Check the speaker wires to ensure they are not touching each other and then turn the power back on. Another reason could be that the unit has become too hot, so ensure the openings on the top panel are not blocked. Also, the AUTO POWER STANDBY or SLEEP function might have set the unit to standby mode; change the AUTO POWER STANDBY setting to a longer setting or OFF from the Option menu.
