JVC RX-558V Questions & Answers
The mute light Is on
If the MUTE is right next to the TUNED, it means the FM is muting inter-station noise until you tune a station strong enough to produce good audio. This has nothing to do with speaker MUTING.
Find FM Mode (page 14) and change it to Mono. Then you will hear the noise between stations until you find one strong enough. Install an anenna (page 3) and you might get strong enough signals to return the mode to Auto.

Can I connect my Magnavox
Think about this. Your TV is NOT the source of HiFi multichannel sound, but the source IT is watching might be. THAT is the best place to get the digital audio you want for the receiver. Run digital audio cables from he Cable Box, Sa, DV. BluRa, whatever to the JVC.
I also advise against running video THROUGH the receiver, opting for direct best conenctions from the source to the TV.
You SHOULD run at least a composite video cable from the receiver to the TV so you can use it to set up receiver things.

Speaker output doesnt work
Hi when using surround sound its important to understand that not all soundtracks have a "rear channel' meaning that the rear speakers will not always produce sound. In fact the rear channels may only produce sound about 10% of the time.
Your receiver has a "test tone" which sends a tone sound through the 5 speakers you should turn the speakers up or down so that all 5 speakers produce about the same volume.
The speakers of course will have a different sound to them depending on the brand and model but just try to balance it as much as possible.
Should also point out that you need to start out with at minimum a STEREO signal and that it needs to be connected with good quality cables. If possible use the optical inputs or HDMI which is a digital signal but not all receivers have that capability.
Lastly play around with the settings Dolby is of course the standard but many receivers have Neo or other proprietary surround formats which may produce the desired effect.
Hope that helps

Overload keeps flashing
Remove anything that may be sitting on top of it, and give it at least 6" of clearance all the way around it to help dissipate heat and leave it that way
permanently.
Next check that the speakers you are using have a compatible Ohm rating for the receiver.

JVC RX558 VBK, Crackling noise from speakers
A quick quess of mine is the following:
The OVERLOAD indicator lights up when the receiver is maxing out on the current it is sending to the speakers. My guess is there is possibly something wrong with the receiver itself, especially since the B speakers won't play. Either that, or something is broken in your speakers or you are using a set of speakers that have too low an impedance rating for your receiver.
