I recently bought a rx-v363 open box at best buy without the remote control to replace an all in one amplifier and dvd player that used only bare speaker wire (it was over 100 bucks cheaper and has a 30 day return policy). According to my dvd player (i bought a new one) I should be able to use a coax out to get the receiver to decode 5.1 and I have the setting as specified on the dvd player output. However, despite playing with settings and rereading the manual, i can only get sound out of my front 3 speaker. I know the wiring is good from the old system, is there a setting I'm missing to get this to work?

There is likely a static charge (voltage / difference of potential) between the the receiver and the TV.
They should have their grounds tied together. This should be covered in your owner's manuals.
In some cases, there may also be a stray voltage on the cable line's ground. If grounding the two together doesn't work, you may want to call the cable company (or you or a friend may be able) to check the cable line for a stray voltage or bad ground.
We're happy to help you with free advice and we'd appreciate your thoughtful rating of our answer.

I have the same setup. Are you going out of the subwoofer output of the reciever? (it's purple.) then into the LFE jack of the subwoofer (also purple.) That's the only connection you need besides power. If you have those right, try using your cable for something else to make sure the cable is good. Is the indicator of the subwoofer green? Mine comes on with the reciever. Good luck!

Is your BluRay connected via HDMI? and if so, are any other sources connected the same? if not, just for arguments sake, try hooling up the BluRay via component and digital coaxial or optical. Yamaha as well as all other AV receiver MFG have had big issues with HDMI processing. HDMI has been battling with the recording industry over HDCP and copyright issues on recording via HDMI. So, that's why HDMI has been so flaky. It's been thru versions 1.1,1.1a,1.2,1.2a,1.3a, and now 1.3b, which seems to work so far.... Anyway, sorry to stray off topic, however, HDMI has been a blessing and a curse for both professionals and consumers alike and has caused multiple strange issues with all products that use the technology. Hope this helps. Post a comment if you need further help. I've got lots of contacts for crazy issues!

The
has a special Sub-Woofer RCA jack located within the middle of the rear panel - look for the white rectangle area going from the top to halfway down the unit.
