Hello to you all!
Since last few months, I had a slight problem with channels on my old Pioneer VSX-1015 receiver.
When I turn on the receiver some of the channels are not playing. First it started occuring, and still is mostly happening, with front right channel. After that I found out that from time to time right surround and right back channel are not working too (it never occured on all three at the same time).
When I increase the volume (by much), the channels start working (no matter the volume) and stay working until the receiver is shut down and cooled.
Also my active subwoofer connected to the same receiver shows a similar behaviour. If I start watching a movie that has a lot of audio effects with deep rumbling, the very unpleasant clicking noise occurs. It normalizes after a few of such scenes. So the behaviour in principle is the same as with other channels - if you put some extensive volume over it for a few seconds, it automatically starts working. However, the difference is in that the subwoofer is otherwise normally working (it's not mute).
Any ideas on what could be causing this problem?
I am not an expert but I thought it could be a problem with one of the capacitators dying out.
