Silly question: How do I turn stereo off? Pressing or pressing &amp; holding sends it to standby+demo mode so lights stay on. I have to unplug to turn o

Then it off with the remote. Then hit the display button on the remote. That turns off the lights while the speaker is off.

Not the version I purchased. However, I believe there is an audio auxiliary plug-in where you could connect any music device. I returned this product because it kept turning off automatically after like 10 minutes unless you actively do something (like change the volume, change the song, etc). It seemed like it was a built-in standby function that couldn't be deactivated. A stereo should not have this feature.

It will turn itself off after not being used (connected to a device) for a short time. I found it to be a pain, because my tape deck was behind the motorized front of the the stereo and I'd have to take it out and turn it back on whenever I would stop for a few minutes.

Donnie: Next to the left of the volume control and the two inputs that are for headphones and "line out" there is a switch that says "Hold on" and "Off". Make sure the switch is in the "hold off" position. That should solve the problem.

I did have that problem. However, there's an alternate method of turning on and off the light by twisting the front end. I twist the front end a little bit so the light is off which does not allow it to be turned on using button on the rear.

You unplug it and never plug it in again. One of the reviews on Amazon describes adding a capacitor in the receiver/controller, but that was more than I was willing to do so I bought a new light set. It is more expensive, but works great.

I found a partial workaround solution for my problem (like yours) of the unit turning off a few seconds after turning it on. I press (and hold) the Stop button, and then the On button, and continue to press them both until the blue SA-CD light and the blue MultiChannel light go off, and then back on again. After that, the unit works ! Except that the LCD panel remains blank. Many (perhaps all) of the front panel buttons work. I still need to experiment to see if the remote works, and to what extent. Sony gave me the choice of a refurbished unit, or to repair mine, under warranty. Anybody got an opinion on which is the way to go ?

just push the blue button and it will go off but so will the sound -- i don;t think you can just turn it off and continue getting sound out of it.. i don;t use mine anymore because, too much bass for me -- i just went back to my TV speakers

Happy Birthday, Joey. I don't know, I haven't had that problem with my player. Of course the turn it off and then back on is the first thing to try. Have you heard the songs played OK on your player yet ? Because something might have happened when they were transferred or in the recording itself. Otherwise maybe try different equalizer (EQ) settings.

Press and hold the power button for approx. 3 seconds. A quick touch of the power button, after the unit is turned on, will switch between 2 modes. One mode is high the other is low. Your preference will depend on your surrounding background sounds. I.E., restaurant setting as opposed to more quiet conversation. It takes a little practice however, you'll find the ability to switch from high to low or vice versa, is very handy in controlling the sound quality. To turn the unit off, press & hold the power button, you'll hear a tone as the unit shuts down.

I am not aware of any external option which shuts off the stand by mode. I usually just reach over and turn the volume off and then back on, if I know that I need instant response. I would say that most of the time it responds in a couple seconds when audio is being generated.

Real quick go in the headphones menu if you see tv + hp turned on turn it off. The surround sound will not work if it's turned on

I just leave mine on. There really is no on/off switch... so you would have to unplug it. Had mine more than a year....still working great. Hope this helps you.

Yes! We've been experiencing the same problem. The standby light flashes red and turns off by itself. We turn it back on and it shuts off again! Then we've also had the picture turn off but the sound is still on. We also bought it through Costco.

The only way to power it off is to unplug it. To turn the enhancement off you can turn the effect level to 0%.

No there is no way to turn off the underbody light without turning off the interior, unless you do not connect them to your cd player and set the outside to sound. This will turn them off hence its not picking up any sound, which is what i use.

I held the play button which is the middle button down for about 4 seconds. You do the same thing to shut it off. When power I'd turned on or off you will see it blink red about 3 or 4 times. Good luck
