My onkyo tx-rz810 keeps going toDet.pretction mode how do I get it out of that mode
Does the display show you are in protect mode , or is a light indicating that? The unit automatically switches to standby when the
"Hardware" - "Power Management" - "Auto Standby"
setting in the Setup menu functions are set. The protective circuit function may have been activated.
If this has occurred, "AMP Diag Mode" appears on the
display when the unit is turned on again, and the unit
enters diagnostic mode. If the results of the diagnosis is
that there is no problem, the "AMP Diag Mode" display
disappears and you can use the unit normally again. If
"CHECK SP WIRE" appears on the display, the speaker
cables may be short-circuited. Make sure bare speaker
wires are not touching each other or the back panel of
the unit, then turn the unit on again. If "NG" is displayed,
immediately unplug the power cord from the wall outlet
and contact your dealer.
• The protective circuit function may have been activated
because the temperature of the unit rose abnormally.
If this happens, then the power will continue to turn off
after you have turned the unit on again. Make sure the
unit has plenty of space for ventilation around it, wait for
the unit to cool down sufficiently, and then try turning it
on again. This is out of your users manual.
General suggestions are to remove all speakers and speaker wiring with unit off. Turn on and see if problem has stopped. If not, let unit cool down if warm and try again later. If problem is still there it needs repair shop work. I fht problem went away, shut off power and connect one speaker at a time and testing. Keep adding speakers one at a time with power off and see if a bad speaker or wire set can be located
I'm interested in buying a Onkyo 3 piece stereo consisting of M5100-amp, the p 3300 preamp and a tuner. My question is can you hook up a subwoofer to this set up
I don't know the answer but I suggest obtaining and reading the user manuals before your purchase will give you that information.
It will then be important to ask the supplier the answer and then the responsibility will be theirs.
If the amplifier provides either a 3:1 or 5:1 output there will be provision for a subwoofer - but what type of subwoofer (active or passive) will be hidden in the specs and if you already have a subwoofer, in the specs of that.
When buying a new amp and preamp the last thing you want is mismatch or overload conditions that will either produce a less than good sound or perhaps stressing the amp.
As a matter of diverse interest, in the old days before subwoofers had been invented the hifi enthusiasts seeking the perfect sound developed the three rack amplifier for domestic use. This type of amp had been used in cinemas for a long time and basically consisted of three amplifiers each built to handle a different frequency spectrum - one amp would drive the tweeters, another the midrange and the third would drive the bass units or woofers.
Another thing hifi buffs did was to introduce a ghost speaker driven by a mono amp that derived an input across the left and right channels.
My opinion is the best sound still comes from a quality 10 or 20 watt tube amp into quality low power handling speakers with cabinets as big as a sideboard. 300Mw is the average power needed for a good listening experience in the average lounge or bedroom.
I cannot seem to get
You need to check 3 things:
1) DTS will only work through a digital connection (coaxial, optical, or HDMI) between your receiver and dvd player. DTS and Dolby 5.1 cannot carry a signal over red and white rca connections.
2) After number 1 is solved ensure the reciever is set to the digital channel, your DTS-HD in this case, or in an auto mode.
3) Finally the most important is that the signal is a DTS signal. Start a DTS capable dvd, go to the sound menu and set it for DTS.
Press play and all should be well...

Just bought a brand new Onkyo DX-C390 and it will not recognize cd . No disc when I put cd in disc tray
If it can recognize some discs then that cd may be faulty, or if it is unable to see any discs then that unit has a problem.
You say its brand new, some machines have "transit screws" to remove but I did not see any mention in its instruction book.
So its possible the mechanism or laser unit is faulty or damaged in some way for that I would refer back to where you bought it or the service company for Onkyo, as you will be at risk if you tried to fix it yourself as you will lose out on warranty.
