I have a Denon AVR 1908 making popping noises intermittantly through all speakers. The procedure for resetting the microprocessor in the manual did not work after three attempts. Denon thinks it is the DSP board and is willing to authorize a warranty repair even though it is one week outside of the two year period. The three closest repair centers they gave me to pick from all have terrible customer ratings. Who does the best repairs that I can get Denon to send an authorization to, or am I better off forgetting the whole idea? I researched the likelihood of a long-lasting repair and it doesn't look good either.

SOURCE: static and popping from Harmon Kardon AVR 340

Hi,

You seem have a problem with a component in that channel, the bad news is that it is hard to fix that type of problem (you would be better off if the channel died). All of the components in the final output section are part of the same audio loop (per channel), which makes it hard to find the faulty part.

Sounds to me like a bypass or coupling capacitor is faulty or need to be re-soldered, either way to fix this problem you should take it in to a repair shop.

I hope that helps and sorry for the bad news.

SOURCE: Noise coming out of speakers connected to Denon AVR 1908

Check for nearby wireless devices and move them away. -If the audio output from the source device (i.e. DVD, CD player) is digital (i.e. PCM, DTS or Dolby Digital) you're on your own. I'd be willing to bet the output is analog (red and white RCA), because the "beeps" and "exploding sounds" you describe seem like it could be caused by interference. Try replacing the cables. Otherwise the issue is probably with your receiver.

SOURCE: My Denon AVR-1507 keeps automatically

Hi


Thanks for using FixYa. Store these instructions in a safe place. After reading, store these instructions along with the warranty card in a safe place. Whenever the power operation button is in the STANDBY state, the unit is still connected to AC line voltage. Please be sure to turn off the power operation button or unplug the cord when you leave home for, say, a vacation. Note that the illustrations in these instructions may differ from the actual unit for explanation purposes. Please click on this link for further reference---

Please do accept the solution if the issue is resolved or else revert for further assistance.


Thanks

I have a Denon AVR 3310CI everything appears to work HDMI inputs recognizes speakers but zero sound ???

If you have verified that the Denon AVR 3310CI is properly configured and connected to the speakers but are still unable to hear anything, you can try the following troubleshooting procedures:
Examine the HDMI cables: Check to see that the HDMI cables are securely connected to the HDMI output port on your source device and the HDMI input ports on the receiver's back. To see if that resolves the issue, try substituting new HDMI cables.
The microprocessor must be reset: The functions of the Denon AVR 3310CI are controlled by a microprocessor. Try powering the receiver back on while simultaneously holding down the "Power" and "Speaker A" buttons to reset the microprocessor.
Check the settings for the sound: Check that the sound settings on the receiver are set up correctly. To ensure that the settings are optimized for your particular setup, check the model's manual.
Aktualize the firmware: Check to see if the Denon AVR 3310CI's firmware can be updated. For additional information on how to update the firmware, you can visit the Denon website or get in touch with their customer support.
Use a different source to test: To determine whether the issue is with the receiver or the original source device, test it with a different source device.

UNIT TURN ON THE THE SPEAKERS MAKE A LOUD SQUEEKING NOISE AND A POP THEN THEY GO OUT

You might want to disconnect the speakers at this point just in case they haven't been irreparably damaged by the amp problem.

Try the amp 'naked" (no speakers). Does it still cycle off? Take it to a technician. If it stays up try one speaker; then the next. At some point you will either have identified the failing component/channel or the failure will have gone away (doubtful).

My Denon AVR-1709 was professionally installed. It lasted less than 2 years, then the speakers started popping, then a few days later there is no signal to any of the 5 speakers or subwoofer. same for all...

This is a case where the audio output ic's have failed, you describe a popping sound which is a classic sign of total audio collapse. Since this was a professional installation, I recommend a top of the line audio technician with an estimate in mind.

The Denon does not play any source on the speakers, just on the headphone jack in the front. What could be the reason?

You might want to review the manual below:

http://www.usa.denon.com/AVR-1908-OM-E_109.pdf

1) Make sure MASTER VOLUME is not set too low 2) MUTE should be OFF 3) Make sure nothing is plugged into the PHONES jack 4)Make sure the source program has a signal present - the inputs may not be connected to the selected source on the front panel (or try FM or AM for a source instead) 5) Check for proper connection at each of the speakers AND at the rear of the stereo. 6) Perform a microprocessor reset: a.Power the unit off, b. Press and release the "POWER" _while_ keeping both "Speaker A" and "Speaker B" buttons pressed. Once the display begins flashing in 1 second intervals, release both speaker buttons.

Hopefully, one of those steps will solve the issue. Please rate this reply if it was helpful - good luck!
