Vr-309 starts to clip after 10-15 min

My VR-309 has recently started to distort and clip the audio being output after it warms up, Usually about 10-15 min. Occasionally when adjusting the volume the sound would be overcome with static while the volume was changing. I found a cold solder joint related to this problem and have not had this issue since fixing. The distortion from the volume knob and the eventual warm up distortion sound identical. I am not sure if they are related

This is a case of one or more transistors breaking down when heated. This can be found usually by using freeze spray to cool down one transistor at a time until the problem clears up. You can narrow this down a bit by determining whether this "noise" is effecgted by the volume control or not. Also, does the problem show up faster when the unit plays louder?

Connecting Kenwood vr-405 to ps4

o connect a Kenwood VR-405 to a PS4, you will need to use the audio and video outputs on the PS4 and the audio and video inputs on the Kenwood VR-405. Here are the general steps to follow:
  1. Connect the HDMI cable from the PS4 HDMI Out port to the HDMI In port on the Kenwood VR-405.
  2. Connect the audio cable from the PS4 Digital Out (optical) port to the Optical In port on the Kenwood VR-405.
  3. Turn on the Kenwood VR-405 and set the input to HDMI or Optical, depending on which cable you used.
  4. Turn on the PS4 and adjust the audio settings on the PS4 to output audio through the HDMI or Optical connection.
  5. Adjust the audio settings on the Kenwood VR-405 to match the audio settings on the PS4.
It is important to consult the user manual of both the Kenwood VR-405 and the PS4 for specific instructions on how to connect them and adjust the settings. If the VR-405 doesn't have a HDMI input, you can use an HDMI to composite adapter to connect the PS4 and the VR-405.

Manuals help. Read them. Nothing in your receiver is actually a multichannel source so you'll be needing to understand the external sources that originate that kind of programming. Manuals.

'Large' is not literal in the context of Bass Management. It refers to the ability of a given speaker to handle REAL bass. Yes = Large, No = Small. 'Small' redirects bass from that speaker channel to the sub.

Web search concepts like bass management, speaker placement, multichannel sound, digital audio, etc.

I have a vr 309 kenwood reciever with a bad subwoofer port because sub doesnt produce sound through it but does through another reciever, is there a fuse or capacitor just for this output i can check or...

Are you sure the VR309 is sending a signal out through the sub port? Attach one of your other speakers to it as a test (low volume). Then get back to us.

There are such things as user settings that affect this.

Surround sound not working properly

Hi guys,

Make sure that your sound aka dvd or whatever is set for a DTS (5.1) set your dvd at bitstreem and your receiver to automatic detection. When your movie will start you will heard your Receiver Relay//Mosfet clicking and a Red led will say DTS once you get there you will be able to select your Doldy digital surround the real one.

Ps: if you want to reset your VR-309 to default HOLD the POWER button for 5 sec unplug it from the wall hold it for 5sec while unplugged and replug it will be rested to default.
