BATMAN5892 Posted July 10, 2016 Share Posted July 10, 2016 I'm having trouble with my RX-Z9. I bought it used off of ebay a month and a half back and for a month it worked flawlessly. One month in it started having an issue. When watching a couple movies, at some point into the 2nd it would cut off the right main channels. Both A and B for the right side would cut out. Everything else plays fine, including all left channels and other surround channels. The Z9 is notorious for getting hot, so I figure it's something to do with that. Well now it seems it takes less and less time before it cuts those 2 channels out. The last time I tried it before tonight, running my old set up with a pair of KG5.5's for mains, it lasted about 1 1/2 hours. Tonight however, running my newly purchased KLF-30's, it lasted a whopping 20 or 30 minutes. Could it be a simple fuse issue, or is it going to be complicated? Could it be where it's working too hard sense I'm running no center and sending that to the mains? I figure I need to get a separate amp for the KLF-30's now anyway, so worst case I'll use preouts on the Z9 and run them that way. I understand the Z9 is old, but I figured it'd be better than a newer, weaker and "cheaper" yet more expensive model receiver, if you get what I mean. Any input is much appreciated, as I still have much to learn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dazzer Posted April 26, 2020 Share Posted April 26, 2020 Hi, did you ever find a remedy for the right channel with the Yamaha amp ? I have the same issue now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
