YHT S-400 Hooked Up To Vierra - No Sound? Know The Cause? Help! Anyone have more details?
339044
Unfortunately I don't have an answer for you as I am having similar problems. Hooked my YHT S-400 up to an LG TV and I can't get the sound bar to work. Sound is coming through the sub-woofer but nothing through the sound bar. All connections appear good and the HDMI Audio is set to AMP as per instructions. Wondering if the sound bar itself is defective.

Check that the speakers do work by connecting directly to device running the expected sound(shows etc). Then check that channel works if only that speaker is working through the pss6 on the same channel tested directly. Once you verify that one channel works you can test the rest of channels on the pss6. If all work and testing the rest of the speakers work and channels on the source work then the wiring in between is the issue. Good luck.

I bought one of those audio cables with the red and white tips, cost me about 8 bucks. Its been a while since I used it but if I remember correctly the sound only came out of the front 3 speakers via this method if thT IS problem for you. Hope this helped.

It may be the receiver. Try switching to the red yellow and white cables. Or get WiFi speakers connected to TV

Did you run it through a phantom power source, such as http://www.amazon.com/Behringer-PS400-Ultra-Compact-Phantom-Supply/dp/B000FG795I ? Otherwise, yeah, it won't work.

Can't say that I have, I have mine hooked to a yamaha sound bar as well. I would suggest checking your cabling, something may not be making a good connection.

Had the same problem... so things to do:- Check to make sure you have power- make sure it is well connected to the Onkyo amp- check on the speaker configuration and sound mode.In my case I had to update the configuration so that it recognizes the sub is enabled. Took a few minutes to go though the menus...

Hi Dennis, Try pressing the test tone button on the remote, and see if your getting sound from all speakers. Also, did you use the RCA cables from the BD player to the Onkyo? ( one for each speaker ) Don't forget to choose the right format from the Blu-ray disk ( Dolby truehd / DTS HD master audio ) If your still having a problem, let me know..I can probably walk you through a little more detail.

Go to the Sound properties in Control Panel and make sure it is pointed to use this devices audio driver. This was an automatic process when I installed mine, but obviously there is some other variable in your system. Also go to Device Manager and remove the device and re-install, could be an issue with the audio segment of the driver. Shouldn't be this hard to get audio, so if none of this works it may be defective as others have stated. Hope this helps.

Thanks for the reply. Ill try that. Just to pass some info along, my friend told me the best way to hook up the audio is through an optical cable. Ive never used one. There is a port on my PS3 as well as my surrond sound. He said this cable was the best way to get the highest quality out of your surround sound. Kind of like comparing SD to HD. My optima will be coming in tomorrow, I cant wait. Kinda like christmas for me haha. Thanks for the advice on the ceiling mount. I was gonna buy the 20$ one but after your comment I went for the Atdec TH-WH-PJ-FM Telehook Universal Projector Flush Mountit was 54$ but had some good reviews. Cant wait till tomorrow....calling into work sick! Thanks for the reply. Ill try that. Just to pass some info along, my friend told me the best way to hook up the audio is through an optical cable.

I would read the directions that were set up with it. If you have experienced a recent power outage, sometimes the sync function between the Receiver and the unit has to be reestablished. Meaning that you may have lost setup settings. Also make sure no one has flipped settings on the front or back as that will cause a problem with the unit turning on. (word to the wise, when you fix it write down the configuration in the manual) additionally the cable that is plugged in the back of the sub....make sure it wasnt pulled out of the back of your receiver by mistake. If you have this hooked up as a "speaker" and not a sub, also make sure the connections are established. Is this hooked up to a Yamaha receiver? If so you may want to cycle through the on screen setup directions and use the auto setup mic that came with the unit. Every time I have issues, I use that tool and it always seems to fix the connection issues. I know with mine, if the PCM source is not working (digital) the unit wont sence the signal and turn on. If you have multiple source inputs (DVD CD and GAme Player) you may want to make sure that they are putting out the required digital signal or it wont jump start the sub. ....I know, when did setting up Stereo equipment become a full day tech project? I am missing the analog days myself

Check all your wired connections. I have mine connected to a switch box and I have to adjust the switches sometimes to get sound. If that doesn't work, try a new set of RCA jack cords from the base to your output device.

Thanks very much to those who offered suggestions. Everything was fine with the wiring. A phone call to a Sony tech resolved the problem, which was found to be my selection of HDMI Passthrough to "ON". As such, the receiver remained partially powered in Standby and resulted in the hum. Re-selecting HDMI Passthrough to "OFF" cured the problem.

You may consider yourself lucky -- since day one, our Panasonic Viera makes this horrible clanking noise every 4th or 5th time we turn it on, as if some wheel were loose and banging around inside. So loud you have to shout to be heard above it. Got no satisfaction from the manufacturer at all. We're not going to touch Panasonic going forward. An expensive lesson. Hope you were able to solve the buzzing -- have you tried listening with headphones? Obviously not a total solution, but perhaps something to make it tolerable when watching alone.

Try changing the ground cable to a thicker one nd ground it to the chasis. Nd chek ur speaker wires. In and out the box.

Check that all wires are fully connected. Other wise it would probably be something internal in which case yeah I would return it. Other thing would be speakers but if you only noticed it with the new amp then there's your issue.
