Onkyo 605 Reciever no sound from zone 2 RCAs

If you haven't done already, then verify that zone 2 works without the selector. If the speakers definitely work and the zone output definitely works then the speaker selector must be the culprit! It's pretty difficult to mess up the wiring with speakers, as even if polarity is reversed, you will still hear something.

Hi Mdensonjr, I see that this was posted in 2011 but well the speaker selector would be connected to the Front speaker terminals, Thanks, JT

Check speaker wireing make sure all positive and negative connections are correct. What cable are you running from tv or DVD player.check to see that wireing is correct on receiver for sorround speakers. Run audysee sound calibrator set up. Make sure correct settings for sorround sound in bluray player/DVD player

The onkyo should still have a speaker A/B selector in the menu.
Check on the back panel for speaker A/B.
If it has or you decide to use Zone 2 you will need to set the sound programme to "stereo" so the rears and centre do not work.
You can still use a digital source.
You should be able to display the amp's menu on the screen.
Hook up "monitor out" (Yellow) via RCA connector to one of the "A/V inputs" (yellow) on the tv, this will show you a display of the menu and will make it eaiser to navigate.

HI pull down the flap on your amp and you will see buttons for zone 2 settings,press zone2 then level up this should work.

hope this helps .

Hi

I FIXED IT!!! …LOL

All you have to do is to do a factory reset on everything, but I thing mostly on your 605. I think what had happened is after I set everything up for the first time, it worked great. As the days when on I started to play with all of the futures the 605 and the TV had to offer. I was turning them on and off to see what everything did. What I think I did was, I turned on something in the 605 that the TV did not know how to cope with. If I had to guess, I think it is the Lip-sink feature (Spelling?) in the 605.

Anyway disconnect everything, look in your manuals of the TV and the 605 to see how to do the factory reset on both. Then turn your TV on. After it does it’s start up for the first time (again), start connecting the 605.

It has been working great for me after I did this. Do not count on help from the people you bought it from or the people who made it. This stuff is so new they do not really know how to fix it.

Please feel free to call me if you need more help. 410-456-1290.

Change the setup in the Hardware control/HDMI/ HDMI Audio...

WHEN YOU SET ZONE 2 ON DID IT ASK YOU TO OUT PUT ZONE 2 ONLY OR MAIN + ZONE 2? IFF SO TRY SWITCHING MAIN ON AND IFF THIS DID NOT WORK MAKE SHURE SPEAKERS ARE SWITCHED ON IN MAIN MENU.
I KNOW THIS IS 2 LATE 4 YOUR NEW YEARS PARTY BUT I JUST FOUND THIS SITE 2DAY.
HOPE THIS HELPED.

Sounds like you have the unit on ZONE 2 take it out of ZONE 2 to make other audio options available.
