Troubleshooting avr 2807

SOURCE: What to use for Audio-out on Denon AVR-2807?

Hi Karmor

Use the Tape Out(rec) connections on the Denon. If that model has a rec out selector, then be sure to select phono as well. All sweet and ready to rip them files!!

You may be able to unplug the unit. Then turn it back on while pressing two buttons on the front of the unit. You will have to find out which two buttons they are, it can't just be any two. What you will be doing to the unit is resetting the micoprossing of the unit. When you do this the unit will flash, reset itself, you the release the buttons and your good as new. I have done this with a couple different reciever and it is a easy fix.

Finally the problem was with the HDMI cable. When I pushed it in on the TV set the problem disappeared. It seems the connections must be quite firm on the HDMI cables otherwise anything may interfere to the sound.

I had the same problem. Rebooting did the trick. Reboot the unit per the instructions provided by another user on the main page. Here they are:

To reboot, turn receiver off by the small on/off button, not the big standby button. While off press the night and pure direct button at the same time and keep holding them with your right hand while pressing the small on/off button with your left. You will see your receiver menu flash. When you see it flash let go of the night and pure direct button and the receiver will reset it self to the radio station 87.50. The receiver's microprocessor has now been set back to factory.

ideally you would use an HDMI video cable but few video cards support that standard yet.

Your next best choice is to use a DVI to HDMI connection cable. They work very well as the video signal is the same between the two the only difference is that a DVI cable does not support sound so you will have to use a 3.5mm stereo (male) to RCA cable for sound.

Now there could be complications there as your receiver may not be able to display a video images off the hdmi cable while combining sound from the analog cable.

Some computer video cards have an RCA or s-video output and that will work BUT the picture quality is going to be bad, real bad.

a better option is to find a device that allows you to connect to your network to view images and videos. There are a number of such devices such as x-box 360, Tivo series 3 etc..


Hope that heps point you in the right direction
