Hi,

my RX-V673 has developed a niggling fault over the past few weeks. At startup there is no sound at all. After a while (20-30 minutes) sound starts coming through sporadically. Then over the next 10 to 30 minutes there are more and longer periods of sound, with some popping and cracking. Then finally the dropouts cease and the amp works correctly and will work correctly all day so long as it's not switched off.
Further information: all inputs are HDMI. When the sound has dropped out, the front panel speaker icons also disappear. All other functions of the amp seem to...

Hi, I've joined because I have a specific issue with an AV receiver but I'm also interested in increasing my understanding and knowledge of consumer and music electronics. I'm very much a newbie though.
