Check the impedance (resistance) on all the speakers and the speaker wires themselves.
Power up the unit with no speakers or inputs attached at minimum volume and see if it still goes into protection mode.
Most speakers should measure between 4 and 8 ohms for most systems when disconnected from the receiver.
If the unit says PROT even with no inputs at minimum volume with the speakers detached, then there's a problem with the amplifier itself, probably in the output section.

SOURCE: HT-Z320 displays PROT code and then shuts down

i had the same problem a prot display then it would shut down. turns out i had the sub disconnected(noise complaint from the shaking at my apartment complex) but the speaker wires for the sub connected to the amp or central unit. when i disconnected the sub i left the wires on the floor behind the sub separating the pos. and neg. somehow the wires got moved around and the pos was touching the neg. as soon as i noticed and fixed this problem the system was working fine. my samsung hometheater model is HT-BD1250

I have a samsung HT-Z120 it show a PROT error

Hi,

This error means that you are trying to play a region-protected disc that is not in the same region as your player.

It is possible to "hack" the region on your DVD player by following these instructions:

When i turn on my Samsung HT-C550 IT showing PROT and DVD turn off. What this is mean PROT?

PROT means that the AMP is protecting itself from damage due to bad or incorrect wiring or damaged and or incorrect speakers. Check your wiring and speakers.
If you find no problem then, DISCONNECT YOUR SYSTEM FROM THE POWER, disconnect your speaker wires...all of them, then reconnect the power ONLY, turn on the system and see if it still says PROT. If it does then your amp is damaged.

My system turns on then the word "prot" appears

its protection mode a failsafe put in place to shut down the unit in the event of a possible critical failure .......maybe a fuse.......maybe a dead system your budget will decide what your next step is ok good luck

ht-q70 shut itself off and posted the phrase 'protection' It is a 5 dvd player with built-in amplifier and the rep said that a fan was not working and it shut itself off to protect from overheating. It will not turn itself back on for any length of time and there are still cds/dvds inside of it. Is it worth getting it repaired, can I order a fan? Samsung says 160 dollars to repair it.

Samsung HT-100W (Cinema System) DVD won't eject Hi, I have been watching standard DVD's on this unit for a while with no issues. Now all of a sudden the DVD won't eject. Is there a ''force eject'' option or a way of getting the DVD out as I'm out of ideas. Many thanks.
