I had the same thing a while ago, except the remote still worked. I took it back to the dealer and they replaced it.

have you pressed the button might be direct can't rem that turns everything off picture display and only leaves sound? pressed one of the other input button on remote so no longer set to the amp? otherwise has it over heated - try factory reset if nothing prob needs to go back!

ive got an 875 and after keeping a close eye on many forums they appear to be a bit dodgy on QC front, many people have had issues with many differnt faults! i know that people shout louder and complain more when they have problems but these onkyos do seem worse than normal!

Really? Please could you give a summary of the types of faults you've seen reported?

Or possibly just that Onkyo has sold stacks of receivers recently, so you see more problems reported.

Well we've had several samples of each of the --5 models, and I've had a very early 875 in daily use for a year or so now, and had no problems at all

Ive had no issues with mine! Im not saying they all break or anything of the sort! just an observation of mine that over on another forum where there is a 2000 post thread on the 875 there seems a disproportionatly large number of people that have had issues. recivers going up in smoke or the display conking out. But you could well be right and it could be due to large amount sold!
