Jeff; That was one of the reasons I stopped doing Stereo Receivers. Especially now with Dolby Logic. If you are not set up for doing these, it's very difficult.
I found it a Loss Leader, especially since a New Systems is under $300, and most people now use these as their Home Theatre Audio. I basically needed to set up Front Left and Right...Rear Left and Right, and Center Channel in order to troubleshoot the system. Would take a Bench, and a separate room. Now...if it's more than R Channel Dead or L Channel dead...I tell them to go to an ASC. Just lost too much time and money on these units. -Ed- Ed Gaidies Tel-Tek Electronics Ontario-Canada Servicing the Consumer Electronic Industry since 1963 [EMAIL PROTECTED] -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Intrepid Video Support Sent: Monday, February 23, 2004 7:37 PM To: ELECTRONICS PROFESSIONALS LIST Subject: Re: [Techs] TA Onkyo TS-SV919THX..No left channel(It's back again...) Doug, This is what I thought. I used a can of freeze spray, tap the board all over and could not get the left channel back. I want point I did if I selected Dolby for the output, but the audio on both channels was a lot lower than it should be. When I got out of Dolby and went back in, no left channel again. Like I said, this thing is hard to trouble shoot with everything connected, when there are no markings on the bottom.

Does freeze/heat make any difference? Sounds like a bad/intermittent solder joint somewhere.
