On a number of occassions, when there is a partcularly loud passage in a movie (explosion, gunshot, etc.), my receiver shuts itself off. I believe the protection circuit is the cause as I have to power up the receiver and lower the volume before being able to continue watching the movie. I think the 992 is 80W x 5; should be enough to handle loud peaks. Anyone have a guess as to why the receiver keeps activating it's circuit protection?
Thanks

I had the exact same problem with my 2095. I got pretty stressed at first but then settled down and decided to start witht the basics. I checked and retightened ALL speaker wire connections on the speakers and the receiver.. It solved the problem and has never happened again. That was over one year ago. BTW it was happening on the exact same passage on the Blues Brothers 2000 DVD. I had it cranked!Bob
Freddie,
If your speakers are relatively insensitive (86 or below) or a 6ohm load/impedance, it would make sense that your Yamaha is shutting down to protect itself. The other possibility is that your receiver cannot really put out 5x 80w with all channels being driven at the same time.
If the yamaha has pre-outs, you could buy a cheap five channel amp which would yield better results.Good luck, Michael
