I have an NAD T755. Sometimes while watching HD channels from my cable box or playing my Xbox 360, both of which output 1080i and are connected to the receiver's component inputs, the screen will go blank for 2-5 seconds and then the video will return. It happens a lot with the cable box, and pretty infrequently with the 360. As far as the cable box goes, it seems to be triggered usually by a transition to an SD signal, like when you go from an HD show to a SD commercial or vice-versa. Sometimes it seems to happen for no reason at all. On the rare instances when it occurs with the 360, there doesn't seem to be any discernable reason for it. It doesn't seem to be a problem when watching SD channels, and the 480p output from my DVD player seems to be fine. After a little research, I found out that my TV will accept an HDMI video input through its DVI connection (it's an older CRT rear projection HDTV), so I just ran HDMI straight from the cable box to the TV...problem solved there.
So...
-Anybody have the same problem and know of a way to correct it (firmware update, warranty repair, etc.)?
It's really not a huge deal, but frankly I'm a little disappointed that such an impressive receiver is brought down by this kind of problem. I had looked at the Onkyo 805/875 and the Yamaha 1800 and 3800, but ultimately settled on the NAD for its great sound and simplicity. It sounds terrific and is super friendly to setup and use. I like this thing a lot and would hate to return it. I had an Onkyo for the last six years and I'm not too eager to go back down that road. Any comments from T7x5 receivers would be greatly appreciated. I did breeze through the 785/775 thread and didn't see anything related to this problem, although i admit I didn't read all 50+ pages! Thanks.
