20 Most Recent Yamaha RX-V595 Receiver Questions & Answers

The optical connection (SPDIF) doesn't have enough bandwidth to transfer DTS-HD audio. To use DTS-HD, you must connect the blue-ray player and receiver via HDMI cable. Each DTS-HD audio track on blue-ray includes also "normal" DTS audio, which is probably used when you select PCM. Player decodes it and sends decoded (non-HD) audio via optical cable to receiver.

check ur speaker wires, try disconnect all wires from back of unit and then try to turn on unit .if it stays on whit no wires attached than u have short connection at speaker wires . if doesn`t come on then try to fasten screws at back of the unit , may sound like BS but if amp board don`t have good ground connection it can go in protection mode happened to me on RX-V592

I would input everything directly to the tv via hdmi, then take the optical audio output from the tv back to the receiver.

Hello
You can connect DVD/LD/Blu-Ray players' outputs to your Yamaha RX-v595. OK.

A little more triage would be in order before you take a knife to it.

Turn the volue to something in the middle.

If it's only an analog source doing it I would suspect a bad switch contact somewhere in the signal path. Typically, it might be a switch you rarely use, like a Tape Monitor or Mute. It's wise to occasionally (with power OFF) manipulate all manual controls throughput their ranges a number of times to wipe oxides from their contacts.

Buy yourself a 120mm 12volt computer case fan and a 12volt power pack. Mount the fan with some double sided tape to the grill on top of your AVR. Have the fan mounted so it draws air out of the amp and turn it on when you know you are going to crank up the volume. Try and buy a fan with the lowest noise level so it isn't annoying

This is a classic over heating problem. There are 2 likely causes - hope for the first.
1. The speakers or wiring have a problem and draw too much current from the receiver. Carefully check your wiring. If it looks OK, leave both speakers disconnected and turn the volume control all the way down. Power the unit up. If it stays running, then try one speaker then the other (at low volumes to avoid damage) and see if one makes it shut down. If it does not stay running then see #2.
2. The power amp circuitry of the receiver has an issue causing it to overheat or the overtemp circuit is faulty and it thinks its overheating. Either way, this one needs professional help.
Good luck

If it trips almost instantly then you have a serious power supply rail problem rather than just a channel down. You need a Yamaha specialist to look at it, there aren't any fuses for that.

"Opening" ... Please explain what you mean.

Yes if it has a suitable speaker connection available and is nominally 8 ohms impedance Speaker and AV.

Being from 1985 or there abouts, it probably needs some TLC at a Yamaha service centre. May need new capacitors and resolder dry joints for age related issues.

WD-40 ... Very dangerous as it not only flammable when wet but is bad for electrical contacts as it leaves a residue behind that does not conduct electricity very well. Check speaker connections first.

(francais) hello in my issue the probleme was a little resistor r027 it's in this red zone and very ugly. easy to find. a friend was unsolded the resistor and weld a little wire after wash with isopropanole alcool. the resistor test the tension when we plug usb thing. less the resistor the usb ports don't work. you can buy r027 for 2 euros for 100 pieces.... or 2 euros for 5 10 pieces (funny).

Follow the procedure as given in following link. RX-V6A ' ENJOYING IN MULTIPLE ROOMS (ZONES) (yamaha.com)

Question edited for clarity, full make model (what it is)'. Question moved to Yamaha Audio. It may be sympathetic vibration and is coming from something nearby. Put it on a folded towel or sit in the floor to test it. https://www.google.com/search?q=YST-FSW050+bad+vibration ..

You must repair the amplifier first. Take it to an authorised Yamaha service centre.
