Hello All. My name is robert and live in NC. I purchased the 670 system with the DV-CP702 6 disc DVD changer. I am hooked up digital with coax and have all speaker connections correct. Here is my problem. When playing a DVD in surround the receiver cuts off within 5-10 seconds. I can listen to CD's and DVD's in stereo fine....I can't even listen to a CD in surround without it cutting off immediately. Could it be a thermal protection issue of some sort?...I also haven't quite figured out how to play the TV through it....any help is much appreciated.

If it's shutting down that fast, it doesnt have enough time to overheat.

'most likely' one of the following is your problem......
1. something connected wrong
2. a defective or damaged cable or wire somewhere
3. a defective receiver

You'll need to determine which is the culprit.
