The Denon does not play any source on the speakers, just on the headphone jack in the front. What could be the reason?

You might want to review the manual below:

http://www.usa.denon.com/AVR-1908-OM-E_109.pdf

1) Make sure MASTER VOLUME is not set too low 2) MUTE should be OFF 3) Make sure nothing is plugged into the PHONES jack 4)Make sure the source program has a signal present - the inputs may not be connected to the selected source on the front panel (or try FM or AM for a source instead) 5) Check for proper connection at each of the speakers AND at the rear of the stereo. 6) Perform a microprocessor reset: a.Power the unit off, b. Press and release the "POWER" _while_ keeping both "Speaker A" and "Speaker B" buttons pressed. Once the display begins flashing in 1 second intervals, release both speaker buttons.

Hopefully, one of those steps will solve the issue. Please rate this reply if it was helpful - good luck!

I want to connect a headphone for my husband but also listen through the speakers.

Wireless headphones hooked up to the tape out rca jack on the back of the unit. This takes care of the problem of the speakers shutting off when you plug headphones into the front headphone jack.

Connect to computer

On the back of your computer should be an audio out jack, generally marked Green. You can get a 3.5mm jack plug to two RCA plugs. The jack plugs into the green socket and the two RCA into an Aux/CD socket of the Denon. If you have other speakers connected to that Green Socket you can get a headphone splitter socket and plug that into the green socket.

Front side speakers quit working ,cant figure it out

Check your front display to make sure that it shows you are using either spkrs A or B. If it does not show this, then you need to replace your headphone jack with a new one. Your unit is thinking that you are using headphones, when in fact you are not.

H/p only displays when I turn the Denon 1707 receiver on. Speaker A nor B turns on. How do I fix this? Thanks, Bruce Krohn

HeadPhone Only, the jack is probably dirty , the dust shorts the relay and cuts the speakers out, compressed air (or a good set of lungs) directed down the headphone jack should fix it.

H/p input on

I had a similar problem and solved it by simply blowing in the headphone jack (h/p input).

Stopped consistently producing sound

Try plugging and unplugging a pair of headphones. The headphone jack in these receivers are flaky and sometimes think there are headphones hooked up even when there isn't. Full repair would require the headphone jack to be replaced. If you don't use headphones at all, you can take the top cover off and unplug the cable going to the headphone jack board and eliminate the problem that was as well.
