My Yamaha HTR 5990 started getting hot and kept cutting off
Depending what happened is the key to solving this, chances are the audio outputs got very hot causing a short which overheated the capacitor, I would inspect and test parts near by to be sure no other part has been compromized. Check all speaker wires for shorts, "a common problem" and take your time when servicing, if unsure! have a professional assess.
I just got a Yamaha HTR6063 receiver and when I
The switch between the speakers and the headphones is controlled by a small mechanical switch from the headphones socket. To have them both active all you need to do is to open the receiver and rewire the socket, bypassing the switch - an easy 15 minute job if you know what you're doing. But you need some experience in electronics to do it so it will be better for you to take it to your local repair shop - they shouldn't be asking you more than $75 for that.

The receiver is in "Setup" mode and wants the microphone plugged in for testing sound parameters. Press "menu" on the remote, this will exit the mode. If you still have an issue, post a comment and I can help you some more.
4 ohm speakers with 8 ohm receivers
Please check with the manual of your receiver whether it is capable of running 4 ohm speakers.
if yes, then please go ahead, you will not loose any Sound quality. Sound quality will depend a lot on the performace of the speaker as well as the frequency range it can deliver.
If no, please do not connect. Though, you might be able to play and listen to the music, but it will overload your receiver!!
If you are not sure, please let me know the brand and model of your receiver and I can check for you.
Please do rate this solution and thanks for using FixYa!
Sony strdg720 problem
Try turning off any surround mode so all you have working is the 2 front speakers. If the soundgoes away, the problem is in the digital surround processing and you are hearing the results of digital noise. Since this unit is new, return it for an exchange indicating the problem. It should not be making this sound.

Xp audio problem
Try really uninstalling the audio device first, then reboot and install. Sometimes a driver reinstall or update fails if you don't uninstall it.
Are you certain that you have the right drivers?
Yamaha HTR_5990
unplug everything that is pluged into the reciever. plug the power cord into an outlet with nothing else pluged into it and try it again. if your electronically experienced you could try to ground it and carefully try it again. give the unit a smell, does it smell a little burnt? if you have a screw driver and a little trust in yourself tale the cover off and look at the board for visual burn marks there should be fuses inside the unit, you could check those out. If you dont see anything visually wrong and it is still not powering it would be a good idea to bring it in to an electronics repair shop and they could diagnose the problem. With the use of a volt ohm meter it would not take long.
Power interuptiions
The unit is most likely getting too hot. Check your speaker cables for frayed wires that may be touching each other. The amp will continue to work, but work much harder into a lower impedence load. Over time this will damage the amp. If the cables are OK, try running the amp with the speaker wires disconnected. If the unit still behaves the same way, there is a problem internally with the output section that should be corrected ASAP.

No sound from Yamaha HTR-5990
You must be sure that you also have "audio" cables connected to the receiver to make this all work. As far as the TV is concerned, the same applies....accordianman
