Why audio is suddenly stop working?

Reboot your computer. Verify via the speaker icon in the taskbar that the audio is not muted and is turned up. Ensure that the computer isn’t muted via hardware, such as a dedicated mute button on you laptop or keyboard. If the headphones work, remove them to continue troubleshooting the internal speakers.

Why does my pioneer VSX receiver stop working?

Hey so I bought a Pioneer VSX receiver about 4 months ago and it suddenly stopped working. The receiver turns on but no sound comes out of the speakers. I plugged in headphones and there was some sound but it wasn’t very loud, even on full volume.

What should I do if my AV receiver turns itself off?

Replace it with a new fuse of the same amperage and voltage (available from electronics parts stores such as RadioShack for about 50 cents a pop) and you should be back in business. If, after your fix, the receiver powers on, but then turns itself off after a few minutes, it’s possible something is physically damaged inside.

What to do if your pioneer receiver suddenly stops working?

IF nothing has changed then it doesn’t sound too good. If it’s new, I’d say look into getting it serviced under warranty. If it’s not, call around for estimates and compare the cost to fix it with replacing it. I don’t know if this will help, but try unplugging your amp for a few minutes, see if that does anything.

What to do when there is no sound on your TV?

IMPORTANT: Verify that the source you are playing is encoded with Surround Sound audio. If not, the audio will be very difficult to hear using a Surround Sound setting. Set Surround Sound to OFF when playing a source that is not encoded with a Surround Sound signal. Check each speaker to make sure they are properly connected to the A/V receiver.

Why does my Yamaha receiver stop playing sound?

I have a Yamaha RX-V671 receiver that just stopped putting out sound completely. This happens on all inputs, including HDMI, Sonos connected via optical audio input, and even the tuner. Video from HDMI inputs works just fine.
