Is the pre out voltage of AVR receivers very low?

Is the pre out voltage of AVR receivers very low?

It is supposed to be very low. I have been asking about it in different threads of the particular avr but don’t get much replies so made a seperate thread. I have an amp to power an adcom gfa 7805 five channel 300watts into 8 ohms and input sensitivity of 1.61vrms.

Is there a problem with the pioneer receiver?

It does sound like the Pioneer receiver has an HDMI switching problem. That’s not unusual. Assuming that it’s out of warranty the cost of repairing the HDMI board is prohibitive. You could get an HDMI input selector with audio extraction. Connect your sources to it with HDMI.

How to find the pre out voltage of a receiver?

Or find a pre-amp section with sufficient voltage on its outputs….or use an amp with lower sensitivity (but more gain there for the sake of sensitivity may make more noise, too ).

What to do if your Yamaha rx-a1040 protection circuitry activated?

When the unit is in this condition, the standby indicator on the unit blinks if you try to turn on the power….REMEDY: As a safety precaution, capability to turn on the power is disabled. Contact your nearest Yamaha dealer or service center to request repair.” Has anyone experienced this before?

Can a Yamaha rx-v483 receiver be turned off?

Assuming the reason for the protection has passed or been fixed, the unit can now be turned off and then back on with the “main zone” power button to restore normal operation mode. If the protector activates again, the fault is still present and the unit needs to be repaired, ideally by a Yamaha authorised repairer.

Do you need a bump box for an AVR?

If anything from my perusing the forums it seems the Yamahas have had more reports of insufficient voltage when people are working with pro amps with (mostly) sub pre-outs; but its a persistent rumor that you need something like a bump box when using an avr and proamp.

Which is the highest voltage Denon or pioneer AVR?

I’ve used a Pioneer, Denon and Onkyo avrs directly with my 1.4V sensitivity pro amps no problem (the Onkyo probably the highest voltage output of that group).
