20 Most Recent Denon DRA-375RD Receiver Questions & Answers

This almost always indicates a blown speaker. If you have an ohm meter you can use that to test the impedance on your speakers. After disconnecting the speaker - touch the red lead to one connector and the black lead to the other. If it reads something other than 8ohms that speaker is blown.
If you don't have an ohm meter you can simply disconnect one speaker at a time and run that way until the fuse blows. If the fuse never blows then you've found the suspect speaker.
Sometimes blown speaker can hide by stealth. When cold everything is normal. When things start to heat up from use the failed circuit shorts and blows the fuse on your amp.

There is a main fuse located either close to where the AC cord enters the unit or under a PC board attached to the transformer. In any case, it is unlikely that the fuse is the real problem. Is there a standby light at all or nothing at all? If there is a standby light, the fuse is fine. If the unit won't stay on or turn on, the problem could be a bad 5V supply or shorted outputs.

Please update this with any additional symptoms and I'll provide additional details.

Thanks,

Most subs are 4 ohm cabinets. That being said, if you added this to one of the channels alone, fine. If added while another speaker was also connected (A+B mode) and the other was a 4 ohm cab as well, then yes, you probably smoked that channel. The two 4-ohm cabs in parallel like that appear to the amp like a 2-ohm load. This amp is designed for a 4-ohm load minimum. It is likely that the output stage overheated and damaged the output transistors. I would have expected the amp to go into protect mode though. Let the receiver cool down and try again. If it works, then the problem is the low load and removing the sub will "fix" it. If not, then further examination of the output stage will be necessary.

It probably does not need one. I have two receivers that have 5.1 inputs (the .1 is the subwoofer) with jst normal 5 speaker output... none for the subwoofer. That is because the speakers these days almost always have built in crossovers to split the freqs up and send the right freq @ power to the right speaker.

Just buy some speakers and don't worry about it. Look for warranty. Radio Shaft used to have 5 year warranteed speakers -- extremely good for the speaker market. I like bose and I hear infinity is another reasonble priced but well designed brand.

Hello,

what's the name of the universal remote? Also, check the manual or pack that came with the remote, you should find the code there. If the code for Denon is not listed amongst the list of codes, then it means the remote cannot work for Denon.

The universal remote should have Denon amongst the list on the remote manual.

But, let me have the name of the universal remote, so that I can tell you if it will work with Denon or not.

Bye for now.

tape 2 should have a "monitor" button that goes along with it.

turn it off and sound should return

your door on the in side has 4two5 rods inside to tell what it is you will have to take off the door panal and try wd-40

The unit is rated at 120 watts total output ( 60 watts per channel x2 channels) As far as being worth fixing it depends on the price of the parts and what you want to do after its fixed. I looked around a little and the unit gets good reveiws from owners. They say its great for a "just music" system.
