Make sure all your audio jacks are hooked up right and make sure your on a good mode of sound. Also, you can try this for support from the actual RCA service. http://voxrightnow.custhelp.com/cgi-bin/voxrightnow.cfg/php/enduser/ask.php?p_sid=wOSZIMUi&p_accessibility=0&p_sp=cF9zcmNoPTEmcF9zb3J0X2J5PWRmbHQmcF9ncmlkc29ydD0mcF9yb3dfY250PTcmcF9wcm9kcz0xNTgmcF9jYXRzPTAmcF9wdj0xLjE1OCZwX2N2PSZwX3NlYXJjaF90eXBlPWFuc3dlcnMuc2VhcmNoX25sJnBfc2NmX2JyYW5kPSZwX3BhZ2U9MQ**&p_srch=1

Hi
in this case the audio is good but the output speaker is not working because you have blown fuse at the amplifier section thats why cant hear the sounds... check the amplifier section then check the fuse speaker protector.. replace a new fuses with the same rate....

Thanks....

I've owned this receiver since the Summer 2001 and it worked well until the audio became intermittent several years later. Eventually, the unit was ON but all sound was dead. It turns out that there are solder joints that developed tiny solder breaks. These were found in the main power board on the large electrolytic capacitors and on the 7 power tab transistors that share a large square heat sink. Thermal cycling can cause microscopic solder joint breaks over years of use. After I re-soldered the broken joints the unit worked properly and is still in use in 2017. Consult a qualified electronics repair technician for the repair, which can be accessed via the removable panel on the bottom of the cabinet. Of course, be sure the unit is unplugged from AC power before starting your inspection and repair.

You need to confirm if the power switch is working as the button is stuck . So it is best to get this part corrected before we move to the remote as the power switch or the button aligment can be corrected if you open to check the continuity.
Next the remote controller must be checked for the IR outputs. please check this link below for tips to repair or find a link for a universal type remote.

You don't say HOW the 'TV' audio is carried to the RT2500? TV's are usually the end of the chain, not a link in it. For multichannel audio you need a multichannel digital source. Is that the TV or would it be the cable/sat box? Try running a digital audio cable from one of those to the RCA.

Your FM tuner will only generate sound from the front sepakers. CD's, Tape, and I guess mp3 player, as well, will only play through the front speakers.
I've included a link for the manual. The audio on this rig is pretty complex. read through the info, especially pages 11,12,13, and play with the audio controls.

If you are looking for a code to program a universal remote, you probably won't find one. Universal remotes are for TV DVD VCR and Cable boxes. A replacement remote might be found at MCMelectronics or Vance Baldwin. I would guess $40-$60

"CHK SPKR" Check Speakers. Remove all speaker wires and turn on receiver. If it still says check speakers, you have an amp that needs output transistors or possibly just soldering of an emitter resistor but thats rare.

Similar problem here, at first 20-30 min warm-up time, followed by irregularity in sound levels, to a complete failure after using for around 30 minutes after warm up (choppy sound to a steady buzz). I wonder if over heating has something to do with it since I left it on all the time after the need of a warm-up occurred. One night, a horrid buzz came from the system and ever since it would become unbearable to listen too after a few minutes, I am debating either to attempt a fix or chunk it. I haven't tried the caps and fuses yet, but seeing your problem leads me to believe it is something more to the problem, and more likely a better investment would be an upgrade.
