Sony receiver, almost no volume

Aug 07, 2007 5 Replies

I have an older Sony receiver. When I turn up the volume all the way, I can barely hear anything. This happens on the tuner as well as cd player. I have tried different speakers, still doesn't work. Any ideas? I was thinking I may have fried the amp or preamp?! The model # is STR-D711.



  1. Turn volume DOWN.
  2. Turn tape monitor switch OFF.
  3. Return volume to normal level.

Wow, I feel like a dumbass! thanks

Nope - a dumbass would have thrown it in the garbage, started taking it apart, or found another way to cause damage.
