      Cathy RobinsonAug 22, 2025
      This may happen because the protection circuit has been activated due to a short circuit or excessive power. If all speakers go silent, check the speaker cords, turn the unit off, and then on again. After that, reduce the volume and try again. If only the front speakers are affected, check their cords and reduce the volume.

      First, check if the sound output level of the rear speakers is set to 0. If so, increase it using the REAR level control. Also, if you're playing a monaural sound source in DOLBY PRO LOGIC or ENHANCED mode, try selecting a different program that's more suitable for monaural audio.
