Clicking noise from Onkyo TX-SR606 during television broadcast

Go to Onkyousa.com, move mouse cursor to support, click on owner's manuals, click on receivers, click view archived receiver models, click TX-SR606 (both"quick setup" and "HTS 7100 for the full manual").

contact onkyo and ask for a disc that you use threw the cd player via a toslink . The disc will upgrade your avr ,thus overwriting any problems you had. My tx-sr705 had an issue with popping during blu ray playback while the dts-master audio was being used. I got a disc that upgraded the chip that utilizes the codec's.

It sounds like you have a defective unit. I would contact the manufacturer and ask to RMA it.

I would be checking the set up mode , you might have it set to left or right channel only , but in mono mode both speakers will come on through one channel

I have similar problem with my Onkyo Tx-SR600. It only happens when it's in surround mode. When switch to Stereo or Direct, the scratchiness go away. Still trying to find a solution to this problem.

befor go to any direction please repeat your system setup as manual told you(for digital output setting)

The PS3 should default to the DOLBY DIGITAL sound output so your ONKYO should be setup to the Digital input, TV logic is a matrix similated multi-channel and I doubt if any PS software is in the DTS audio format, look at your game software disc`s and they will inform you of the audio capabilities.

If you're running an optical cable from the PS3 to the receiver, best quality would be through the Dolby Digital, because that broadcasts in 7.1 HD Audio Format. There should be a way to get a default setting when the optical input is detected in your receiver.

there is a protection circuit kicking in.

First thing to check.....Verifiy that all speaker lines are in correct polarity.

+ and gold or writing/stripe on cable.

Check this all the way around and if the sub is a line in sub,, check that also.

You really should just unplug them all and start one by one.

If you cannot get to the wires or its too hard to access,

hold your hand 1/8 of an inch from the woofers. they should be kicking out, not pulling in.

Could also be a blown woofer somewhere in the system.


Hope that helps!

sounds like a reception problem. Is there a visual meter for the reception? Check your antenna.
