Hey guys, I have a Sony STR-DE335 stereo reciever and I let one of my friends borrow it for a few weeks. When I came to pick it back up he said there was something wrong with it. At certain volumes it would go into protection mode, when I looked at it the stereo go into protection mode about 3 seconds after you cut it on.
I took it home and with nothing connected to the unit it goes straight into protection mode when turning it on. Now the unit will not even turn out. When its plugged in the unit flashes and the relays click but nothing come up now. I noticed my friends had a couple speakers connected to each channel so maybe he overloaded the amp.
Whats the most common things that would cause these problems. The unit is a few years old so its not worth paying someone to fix it but I would like to get it working again if it is something simple.
Appreciate the help.
