I recently purchased the above named receiver, but I have teething problems, and I was wondering if anybody could assist me in rectifying them, problems are as follows :- (1) Because I have connected the HDMI cable from my HD/SONY BRAVIA to the receiver, every time I require to switch the television for normal viewing ON, the receiver has to be switched ON prior to me viewing the TV. Is there any other way I can overcome this problem ?. (2) I have a 7.1 speaker system (8ohm) I have difficulty in setting up the speaker system, Front, Centre & Surround speakers seem to work but the back speakers I don't have any sound coming out. All cable connections have been checked, could this be a fault in the receiver or is it me not setting up properly. I would be very grateful for any respond, thanking you kindly. Regards:- FROGIT
