Sorry if this is getting boring.
Further to my last threads about the centre channel being so quiet it's practically inaudible, I got a replacement from Amazon today, plugged it in and exactly the same! (if anything a little worse).
I just can't understand it and am now getting seriously peed off. It must be one of three things.
1. The STR DA 2400ES is, actually, an utter load of rubbish that doesn't work (I doubt it due to WHF raves...)
2. I've been sent two duds (possible, but let's face it, doubtful...)
3. There's something wrong with the rest of my set up
Option 3 does seem the most likely but all I do is plug in 5 speakers and a sub that have worked perfectly well with the last AV amp for many years, and that's it. It's worse with Blu Ray - on playing a disc after auto cal you just can't hear the dialogue at all unless you put your ear to the speaker - but it's really noticeable how quiet the centre is when you do the test tone which is input independent.
I really really don't know what to do now. I can't ask Amazon to send another, and I now have two expensive black boxes which are no use...
Please help!
