anyone experienced an audible buzzing sound generated by the TX-SR605 unit itself. This is not a HD issue, but a rather loud buzz generated by the unit. any help or ideas would be appreciated as this is already my second refurb. The first was returned for overheating. This one is just out of the box and has this issue.

I'm considering a refurb from an online vendor. Where did you get yours.


thanks,

accessories4less.com - service has been great thus far, just seem to have received 2 bad units.

You have a ground loop problem.

Check in the subwoofer area in this forum. You'll find many useful posts for hum and methods to prevent it.

I had this problem and bought a ground loop isolator which is connected between the subwoofer and your receiver. The buzz was removed.

Good luck

I have now tried a new power source and taken the step of removing all of the speakers from the receiver. The problem remains. The only connections currently made are receiver to the outlet / surge protector and the HDMI input from the DTV HD DVR and the HDMI output to my VIZIO TV. All of this worked with previous Sony Receiver. Again, any feedback or ideas would be appreciated prior to have to send back my second Onkyo 605.
