OK I think I understand what you talking about you are using the multi channel hook ups on the back instead of just a digitl cable(coax or Optical) right?

yeah, for cases where the player would not feed a digital signal... (SACD or consumer DVD-a), the analog inputs is what I was using...and the problem...the digital fed signal worked flawlessly

so does this mean that mine is faulty if it is sending out static to the rear channels while I am just trying to run 2.1?

I would say that there is something wrong with your unit. Though I don't normally run the sub for 2-channel music, I have several times with no static from the rears or surrounds. I own a 5000ES.

You may need some burn in.  I find with the several digital receivers I have used, they really don't open up all the way for about a month.

i dont know what happened, and i really dont care...but this is just plain immature and really has no place...

it added NOTHING to the thread, nothing at all, if you have a problem with him, deal with it, but most people don't care to read about it, esp. in this format.

Normally I'd agree but Daryan deserves everything he gets.

i respectfully disagree. i think you are arguing that point. normally i'd agree with you, but daryan is such a malignant schmuck that he deserves it in all contexts on taperssection.com. in real life, i don't know him, and i don't know personally if he deserves retaliatory shitbaggery...
but on the internet? he's got it coming. the cheating, lying son of a bitch is weaseling his sorry ass back in yet again. i vow to keep him in check as much as i possibly can. hence the sidetrack, razor.
back to your regularly scheduled reviewing! :)

what Nick said....

if you really don't know who Daryan is google his name and see what comes up in the various newsgroups, then search his name in DAT-Heads, and finally search his name here...

btw more and more we are finding that burn in has less of an effect than thought.  yes it has some effect, however essentially your ears have more effect as you grow more accustomed to the sound of the unit in your space.

All right now I am having difficulty getting surround sound to come from the back speakers.  I test toned it and they get signal, but during movies I know have sound coming from the speakers there is nothing also while I was test toning one of the speakers was extremely staticky so i am going to re wire that one, Any other help.  This is in 5.1 surround for movies.
Thanks

Been reading about the ES series and was wondering if this is a "bright" receiver ?

I've heard it described that way.
I think it depends greatly on your speakers....as well as your outlook on what you hear.
one mans bright may be another mans detail.

With my speakers...which are not bright...but big , bassy and just meaty sounding...the Sony comes through as detailed to a point ofrazor sharp.  a "honed" soune, if you will.

then again, knowing what my speakers sound like with other amps, I think my 3000es sounds lean.  A tad shy in the bottom end.  It can still dig down there when it needs to, but there is no upper to mid bass richness to it at all.
A tube amp would have all of that.
