Hello everybody! I’ve recently picked up an old jvc surround sound setup, with the jvc-1070r as receiver. I’ve hooked it up to my via optical, but it doesn’t seem to be working. I have an LG tv and audio out is set to optical, and on the receiver its plugged into “Optical in: Digital 3 (TV)”. I also tried just tuning into radio, but that didn’t make any sound either. It did say “auto muting” on the receiver though, and it didn’t work with 2 other speakers i tested. If anybody can help me out that would be great!
Thanks in advance
Have you ever heard audio from any source when using the receiver?
No I have not. Could i have a faulty receiver? How do I check it works properly?
I’d try an analog source…like the aux port or something.
There’s a chance it’s a bad incoming signal but in my (fairly extensive) experience with older AVRs, the most common failures are the HDMI ports or the amplifier itself…
