 I have this receiver for probably 2 or 3 years now, never a problem, until one day I powered it on and all I have is video signal, no audio at all.  I have done factory reset, upgraded to the latest firmware. I have disconnected it and left it disconnected for a day. Reconnected all the...

So after finally getting my new TV on a stand and watching TV that night fine, the next day when I tried to use my Pioneer receiver it wouldn't accept an hdmi signal. I'm really trying to save my money at the moment and didn't anticipate this breaking. I thought maybe I'd try and get by using...

So I've had this receiver for a few years. I got a new TV a couple of weeks ago and finally had someone help me put it on a stand yesterday. Everything was working fine. I watched several shows on it and then turned everything off and went to bed. I wake up and turn on my TV and receiver, and...

  I have a VSX 21 which I've had for years & it has worked great... 'til now. I discovered as I changed my tv stand that nothing was coming out of my center channel & I figured someone just messed w/the remote and turned it down inadvertently, but when I try the test tone or channel select, it...

So I have this Pioneer Elite Receiver I bought around 4 years ago. It doesn't have 3D support and I'm running out of HDMI ports. The Yamaha is on sale today for $300. I'm not sure how good it is compared to the pioneer. I was thinking about waiting for the Denon x3000 to go on sale and get...

Hey guys, I could really use some help. The last couple weeks when playing my system I get sudden increases in volume coming from my subwoofer. I notice it much more during music but I assume that because most music (that I listen to) has more consistent bass output. It is pretty dramatic and...

I have a slim PS3 running the latest firmware, a Panasonic st50 TV and a Pioneer VSX-21 AVR. All my components route via hdmi through the AVR. I am able to use comcast on demand to view 3d content, however when I tried playing Star Trek Into Darkness (3d disc) I get a few seconds of a 2d...

Hello- I am new to this forum! I used to sell HT at Best Buy, and during my time there I purchased 2 Def Tech Pro Cinema 1000's for my L and R channels, A Pro Center 1000 for the center channel, I had 2 Bose cubes for the rears, and got a good deal on a Sony 12'' standalone subwoofer. All of...

Given that there appears to be a couple of us who actually have this 84" 4K panel in our homes and it has been suggested that we start an official owners' thread, here it is. For the time being I've mounted this panel on the family room wall. The redecorating is pending (probably won't be...

Hi all. I am just finishing up my brand-new theater, and am overwhelmed, after reading the manual of my new Pioneer VSX-21TXH. Background -- in 1994 I purchased a Pioneer Pro-Logic receiver, which I have used ever since in a "5.0" setup in my living room. I know very little about audio, but...

Hi guys, I just joined AVS forums hoping you guys can help me out. I got a Elite VSX-21 receiver and trying to set up zone 2 to work with my computer. This is what i did and I am not getting any sound on Zone 2 speakers. 1. I hooked up 2 speakers to surround back ports on the receiver. 2...
