Carl- If you are sending a Line Level Audio signal to your ONKYO RECEVER, from your Sirus RCA cable Output, IE, the CD input, the VCR input, the AUX in, ETC. No Need to have the RECEIVER in the FM mode, you are just needing amplificaton of the sound signal or Sirus signal sound.

u have a short.
remove all speakers cables and turn it on, if remains on and u can up the volume do the next.
1: turn it off.
2: connect only 1 speaker cable (each time to see if the short is in one speaker or cable)
3: turn it on, up the volume.
this way u must be able to see what cable or speaker have the problem.
if still the same prob the short is inside.
i put a answer of a prob where cant up of 41 check the cleaning method.
Good luck
Losing memory settings
On remote control before you shut off yor receiver press "TEST" button to save the memory. It will save every setting. Make sure to do that all the time after you change the setings.

you have a shortcut, u need to verify ur speakers and the cables of all speakers, doit in this way:
1: remove all speakers cables from the amp.
2: connect 1 cable (this mean 1 speaker) only 1 each time and go to step 3..
3: turn on the amp, and increase the volume and see if this pass from the 41, the speaker that u r checking is fine.
4: doit with each speaker cable, this way u can check if the problem is a cable or speaker.
if in all speaker u have the same problem, means that the prob is inside the amp, and must be the toroid or maybe some one drop a clip or a metallic objet inside.
u can clean it, just buy an air spray (only compressed air) usually the spray has a little mouth with this u can introduce in the air breath of the amp, and clean it ( be sure to do it with the amp in horizontal way couse the spray sometimes spit cold water and can damage the amp.
if u try all and still the same i think u must take it to a service center.
good luck!!!
HEADPHONE ENGAGED AND NOT PLUGED IN.
When your son pulled out the headphones he must have broke the auto pressure switch right inside of the headphone jack input (its most lickly just bent out of place making a contact that is telling the amp the headphones are still in! you can try to bend the contact back into place...but if it is broken it will need replaced (a cheap repair!)

Hi...
I dont have really good news. It's the DSP board assembly that's not working.
Get in touch with unitedradio.com and see what the cost is on a new assby.
My Onkyo Receiver TX 601 is turning itself off
Several things can cause this: Loud signal passages can momentarily draw high currents at the mains, especially if you have unit plugged into power stripe with other equipment. Or if unit is plugged into isolation transformer, current draw may exceed output of transformer. Too many speakers hooked to output or if one is bad (partially shorted due to overheating)

It would help to know what equalizer you have, but I will assume it is a stereo analog unit. With the exception of the Tape In/Out connections on the back of the receiver there is really no provision for an equalizer. Even the Tape I/O connections are of little use if you can't monitor the source through the Tape In connections. Even if that were to work, it will not function for any digital sources you may have. You should be able to install this between an analog external source and the input to the receiver if you have one particular device you would like to tweak.
There are equalizer settings you can control within the receiver itself. You have the option of selecting the manual method for equalizer settings for each speaker or the default automatic method. Granted there are only 5 frequencies (3 for the sub) that you can adjust, but the fact that you can adjust each speaker separately is an advantage. The following was taken from the owner's manual:
• The front, center, surround, and surround back speakers
can be adjusted at 80 Hz, 250 Hz, 800 Hz,
2500 Hz, and 8000 Hz. The subwoofer can be adjusted
at 40 Hz, 80 Hz, and 160 Hz.
• While the Direct or Pure Audio listening mode is
selected, the equalizer settings have no effect.
• This procedure can also be performed on the AV
receiver by using its [SETUP], [ENTER], and arrow
buttons.
This is a very good receiver with some great features. If you have performed the Automatic Speaker Setup, you can go to the equalizer setting and select Off, Audyssey (automatic) or Manual.
Hope this helps.
