I just tried to play some music using aux mode and optical 2 and got no sound.
I use this mode for my Itunes air express....thought it might be the source, so I tested Itunes and it was working fine on my macbook. Then I tried a standard TV transmission using optical 1 and got no sound, even after turning the unit off and on. Also, I was getting no response from the volume button on the remote or the unit itself. Then I tried the digital coax CD mode and it worked. So, I turned everything off and on again, and all is working. But, this is bothering me.....never had anything like this happen on my older multi mode Yamaha and it was only $400, and I've only had the 970 for a month or so.....is this an indication of more problems to come and the no sound problem everyone is talking about? A couple of times I also experienced a stutter in the audio when I initiated recorded programing off of my DVR....something else the Yamaha never did. For a new product, this is troubling.

Hello john226,

I am very sorry to hear of your difficulties. Please give us a call today at 866-688-5297 so that we can troubleshoot this with you.

In the meantime, be sure to turn the "Auto-polling" feature off on your Aux input if it is connected via optical exclusively. The factory default settings leave that feature set to "on" which may be exacerbating your issue.

Thanks,

Scott
