When playing a DVD from my pioneer threw my Kenwood VR-507 I lose my verbal audio and my rear channels to my 5.1
The rear channels work when playing a music cd and I am able to change the listening settings when the music Cd is playing. When playing the DVD it only lets me operate the listening mod in stereo which I have verbal audio and only front speakers and when in dolby digital I have rear channels but no verbal audio. The verbal audio is very low. I have the audio hooked up between the two with optical cable

A Kenwood VR-407 is a receiver and has an INPUT pair for CD/DVD, not outputs. Plug ANY functioning audio source (except a turntable) into it and select it on the front panel.
If your DP doesn't work on either I'd suspect something is wrong with IT.
It would be the rare TV that originated anything approaching the sound quality of any other audio source in your home or could process digital multichannel audio anywhere near as well as the Kenwood. What model TV did you say this was? Its internal audio controls could also be part of the problem.
TV-related audio is best derived from as close to its source as possible. Your cable, satellite DVD, BD all have superior digital multichannel audio outputs. Why would you want to filter them through the TV first?
Those sources may also have HDMI which would be great for the TV; they also have standard RCA stereo outputs, each of which could be suitable to run to the TV's RCA inputs if you only want to watch news or weather with lo-fi sound.
Bottom line recommendation: BEST video to the TV; best audio to the Kenwood.
PROCESS OF ELIMINATION: connect each of the other speaker in the working to check to see if the wires and other speakers are working. If all speaker play when connected to the working channel check all other cables and connections....use the tuner as an working source to test. If that doesn't help then you may have an bad channel in your amp and may need to be repaired.
My Kenwood VR-507 had been working great. I hadn't changed anything. I hadn't even moved it. It just suddenly stopped producing sound. It didn't just stop while it was on. I had turned it off and when I turned it back on, nothing. I tried running the speaker setup to see if it would output pink noise, I could hear the test sound, but I couldn't hear any audio from the TV or DVD player..
"Sub-woofer output not working" problem, and notify you when a new solution is offered. Press the setup key on the front of the receiver Select the subw setting Move the multicontrol knob until the sub woofer is on Turn off the receiver and turn back on- the subwoofer should be on The operator manual can be downloaded on the web site--- free http://www.retrevo.com/support/Kenwood-VR-507-Receivers-manual/id/480ag219/t/2/
