I've had my receiver for about 5 years now and picked up on sale for $199 at Best buy so figured it was pretty decent deal. I'm not the biggest fan of the menu/interface but it's done the job fine up until yesterday.
I recently moved and have been setting up my surround sound setup little by little and have had two tower speakers (
Infinity Primus P363 Three-way dual 6-1/2-Inch Floorstanding Speaker) for the fronts and have got them to transmit sound by turning the sound off to the TV but with no Center it didn't sound right so I went back to sound to tv till I managed to get my Center Speaker wire run. I used to a Energy Star center I had from a surround sound system I bought together a long time ago. I finally did that last night and hooked everything and then turned sound to TV off again and started getting my surround sound but as soon as I made the Center speaker active I started noticing the sound fluctuating between the fronts/the center and then finally the receiver just turned off on it's own.
Now when I try to turn on the receiver it lights up the power light to white for about 1 second (no display) and then goes to a blinking amber light. I've tried researching the issue online but can't find anything and I've tried the reset, by holding the surround mode button for 5 seconds, and it looks like it's reset but the same issue persists.
Is the receiver done for? And if so, might I have done something with my setup to cook the receiver? It would seem odd I did the latter as I've had an assortment of speakers together on this system on and off for years and I've had no issues. Now if I did cook it then I guess I can't do much about it and would greatly appreciate some recommendations for a solid receiver that I can replace the Harman Kardon with.
