Same Problem

-   the situation of my receiver now is only the lights of the "Power" and "M R OFF"are on. when i try to turn on the receiver, there is no response with all the buttons. I try to unplug the electricity and plug again, the same situation happens, only the lights of "Power" and "M R OFF"are on. and i also check the rear side and nothing has been removed and loosen, so i don't what's happen with my receiver. I also use my remote control, again no response. (NAD AV-716 receiver problem)-   AH DOM

-   My Denon AV-1010 displays "Protection!!!" and won't work. I'm not sure it's worth $40 to have someone diagnose it. My research indicates it could be a crossed speaker connection. If not (mine wasn't) it's probably an internal problem.

My solution was to buy a used NAD AV-716. But it didn't have a manual. If yours is dead, I'd love to have your manual (or get a copy of it)

Good Luck-   juplc

I had this same problem.... twice. The system protects itself form frying because you have crossed wires while the system is on.

Prevent this by: Never touching or messing with wires when your system is on. Always unplug before messing with them.

Also, trial and error - locate the bad cable. Never use old beat up cables, use clean ones without breaks or sufficiently fixed with electrical tape.

Solution: I had to send my unit back to Sony. They were nice enough to take it off of protection and send it back (both times). It took a little less than three weeks for me to get my unit back (not too bad all things considered).

Hope this helps, it was a nightmare til i figured it out. Very frustrating especially with a new unit

Do not throw away! Unit should be still good.

Just called Sony and they were very helpful.   It is either an issue with having a surge protector or a speaker connection.  I plugged my receiver into wall without protector with no change.  Once i removed all of my speaker connections to receiver, the problem went away.  Upon reconnecitong speakers i noticed that my center speaker wires were touching and shorting out connection.  Once i fixed this everything was hunkey dorey.
