How is it these days that when you turn the volume up on your stereo receiver it automatically shuts down after a certain volume is reached? I'Ve blown up 3 recovers already. Back in the day you used to be able to turn up the volume as loud as you wanted to but not any more. why?

Easy! You either have a surround speaker wired backwards or there is a break in the wire leading to a surround speaker that is allowing the +&- to arc together. your amp shutsvoff as a protection to keep the arc from reaching the mother board. replace your wires man!!

the receiver has a built in cut off. if you over work the amp inside it will shut off. try keeping the volume down a little bit

maybe your system has an overload protection circuits that automatically shuts it off when too much volume is detected.

most stereos run hot when turned up high.  Is the sound distorted?

I had the same problem and found that when I moved the speakers apart further...It works as well as it always did before my 8 speakers were introduced..I think the sound was interfering with itself.. Try it !!

it just seems a setting problem.
go to AUDIO SETTINGS or MENU.it will have "ON VOLUME".
press volume control -ve to get desired volume.
press AUDIO or MENU to store volume level.Next time u turn it ON ,the volume will be what u SET. OK i hope this solves your problem.

Pioneer posted this on it's Canadian Web Site:

Poor wiring connections, bad wires or a bad speaker may cause this. As you increase the volume, you will increase the amount of current you are drawing from the receiver. To troubleshoot this issue, try the following:

1. Disconnect each speaker wire connection. Inspect for any frayed or damaged wiring and replace it.
2. Check the impedance of the speakers; make sure they are properly rated for your stereo. In most cases, they need to be 8 ohms. Only a few Pioneer receivers will support lower impedance.
3. If the problem still continues, try these steps:
   1. Turn the receiver off.
   2. Remove one speaker.
   3. Turn the receiver on.
   4. Increase the volume.

If the receiver overloads, repeat steps 1-4 (selecting a different speaker each time). If you disconnect a certain speaker and the receiver no longer overloads, have this speaker checked at a service center. It could have a bad speaker component, like a tweeter, sub-woofer, or even a bad crossover.

Speaker Impedance:
When speaker systems A and B are used separately, speakers with an impedance of 6 to 16 ohms can be connected for use as front speakers
Be careful when using two pairs of front speakers (A + B) at the same time if their impedance is less than 12 ohms.
The protector circuit may be activated of the set is played for long periods of time at high volumes with an impedance lower than specified are connected.
