The sound has started dropping out when playing the tv through my sony surround sound. It's on normal tv,Netflix etc but is fine when just played through tv speakers. Any ideas please because it's only just started doing it?
Hi I'm using a Sony surround sound amp. Been working fine through HDMI,stereo turns on when tv is turned on,off when tv is turned off,volume up when tv is turned up etc etc. Currys advised using a optical cable instead,£50 later I'm trying it now but the stereo is now completely seperate to tv!
I have a similer problem. My amps connected to my TV via the ARC HDMI. When watching TV, the sound occatioanlly drops for a less than a second. I have a good HDMI cable, but its 7.5m long, I assumed that was the problem. If your having a problem, maybe its something else.
How long is your HDMI cable?
Are you using HDMI?
Don't buy the optical currys recommended if you have 7.1 as it wont work.
Hi I am running through a good quality HDMI cable which is also 2 mtr abd plugged via the 'arc' HDMI. This time currys suggested using an optical cable,£50 later it separated the amp from the TV so they didn't run in conjunction with eachother. That's gone back and I'm back to original problem.
Hi In a work no. Currys advised an optical cable at £60 but its connected differently,so lost any function linked to the amp. Swapped back to hdmi arc and made sure the cables were definitely in properly. Still does it occasionally but not as much. Sorry I couldn't give you a good outcome!
Despite reading everywhere that these cables either work or they don't, in my case my existing cable (which wasn't a cheap imported knock off) was causing the sound dropouts. Since moving to a new cable the sound has been flawless.
