Onkyo 7.1 setup issues on 708

Coderabit · Jun 19, 2011

I finally finished my HT room and setup my Onkyo 708. However, when I setup all the speakers the surround right sounds like a blown speaker. I tried switching the left and right and it swapped which speaker sounded blown. Is there something I'm doing wrong with the setup or is it a bad receiver? The other six outputs sound fine.

Thanks,

Cody

What speakers are they? Did you already move them and the same speaker sounds blown no matter where it is put?

If I understand you correctly you "swapped" the speakers at the receiver as to the "left" surround sounds blown as to then the right sounds fine? If so, I would double check the connections at the receiver to make sure they are hooked correctly. Did you by chance do something differnt as to installing banna plugs? If all seems fine then chances are you might have a bad receiver.

They are polk in wall RC85i. I've ordered banana plugs, but right now they are just connected via the bare wire. Hopefully it is just a bad connection and the banana plugs fix it.
