Sony STR-DB930 "Protect" issue

This is a common problem with stereo receivers. Something goes wrong with a speaker or the amp overheats and the audio shuts off.

Thanks for this video, good info! I'm a bit late with this but Sony has provided a bottom opening for accessing the main amplifier board's solder side without the need to yank it out. Just undo six screws and off comes the lid 😁

Aloha, are you able to tell me how to test if one of those IC chips has gone bad and needs replacement? The problem with my amp is that the front right channel is more than 10 db lower than it should be, even in the headphones. I cant find any loose joints or see any thing wrong.

Sorry. I do not. I'm more of a tube guy. You might try pricing those out. They might be cheap enough to just get one and try it.

I have a str-de675 with this issue maybe has the same problem
