This is very interesting.  How old is the unit?  A friend of mine just
purchased a Sony surround sound receiver which I beleive is the same model
and he's currently on his third.  The first one had a defective remote and
some LED on the main unit refused to turn off fully (something else too I
believe).  The second one seemed to be fully functional but it produced a
continuous hum until it warmed up (several minutes later).  He was told
that it was because his satellite speakers where 4 ohms and not 8 but the
owners manual seems to indicate that 4 ohm speakers are fine.  I'm not
sure if he's received the third yet but I'm curious to see if it's DOA as
well.  This sounds very uncharacteristic of Sony.
