try to
• Switch the receiver off, then on again.
• Reconnect the USB device with the receiver switched off.
• Select another input source (like BD), then switch back to iPod USB.

tested RS33 (todoroki) & 820SW (ES3) just now at HN...
audited without subwoofer and set volume 42 by same CD music...

RS33 front speaker really a boom boom box without doubt...
820SW front speaker treble slightly better and very little bass...
at least the bass can under control by subwoofer by the volume knob...
most probably will end up with 820SW instead without confusing myself...

the 820 receiver can the video and audio went tru over HDMI when receiver on standby?

i dont think can passby...
but still what the heck u want to enjoy high quality audio from TV if u got AV receiver?

1. Make sure the Subwoofer cable connected to Subwoofer OUTPUT

2. Put all the speaker setting to SMALL

3. Subwoofer level put to 0 dB

i think should be no some troublesome for you to carry your amp and woofer by your own vehicles to the shop for rectification... at least fasten the process and u can enjoy your AV asap...

unless u means ur woofer as heavy as 30kg+ or defected floor stand speaker then different story and have to use their van to carry lo...

anyway, RM2400 for infinity setup with 2 stands seem is a good deal... where u get it?

Thanks for the help.I will try it after going back from work.Hope they will settle the problem before I arrived at my house.To much to study in the manual.

Added on February 16, 2011, 10:45 amI bought it from my favorite shop at Kulim.Always give me best price.All my home appliances I bought from them.Last Saturday I bought Panasonic Plasma 3D together with this VSX-520.They can offer you lowest price if you manage to give the price from other store.The valid one.Not the invalid.

By the way.Thanks for the advice.the idea to bring the amp back to the shop not crossing in my mind until you state it here.TQ my friend.

kulim, no laku for me as i based at klang valley...
if the shop no far away from ur house better carry the system yourself... bcos u wont know what will happen when the carrying it (scratched) or change another old board into your amp... just a tips...

anyway, just wondering how much the heat released from 820? i planned to place it at close cabinet but the gap between the top just about 2-3cm gap only, should quite poor ventilation as believe... but if place it at open area, but worrying the dust... any advice?

I place my amp inside cabinet with 20 cm clearance on top, 6~8cm on both sides. Dust? I cover my amp with cloth when not in use.

2~3cm is very little, not recommended if you are running it at high volume for long period.

At first,the top gap between my amp and the cabinet just 3cm.Reading manual,it's suggest 30cm gap.I just pull out the second layer of my cabinet and place my amp at the bottom cabinet.Now i got the 30cm clearance.But still the sub woofer problem is my main problem.

Does the LED on the sub lit on? Cable connecting the sub to the amp in working condition? (can also try using RCA cable for video....the yellow cable)

yes..there is power in.Besides i already test the subwofer together with the salesman at the shop.maybe the setting is the problem.Do you no how to change FLE ATT setting from no to yes

how about i install 2unit 8cm case fan at the side of amp to suck all the heat out?

here my intention to place my setup... still prefer to put my receiver at Location 2 instead if possible...
any posibility that the vibration from subwooder will damage my LCD and receiver? any advise?

i think location 1 will give better space for ventilation.Location two you can put dvd or astro decoder.

Normally the subwoofer is placed on top of a solid area, eg, the floor. It's abnormal to have it in/on the cabinet.

agree with weim..

actually on top of Location 2 still can put something there, as the portion full with decoration items...


bcos i facing some limitation of the space, beside my left front speaker is my air purifier and that is the best location for it and wish no to relocate it to other place... anyway, my subwoofer speaker is facing front, no those down-firing type, and the TV cabinet top surface is glass... still recommended to place subwoofer at solid surface?

subwoofer on cabinet is really kind of weird

just a thought
