Hi,
I recently bought an Onkyo tx-sr604 from the states and stupidly assumed it would work fine in the UK.
I bought a step down transformer for it rated at 1000w, so should be more than enough. But although it switches on a makes a test tone, I've been unable to get any sound from it using optical from PC,sky box,and dvd player. Also when I connect my Sky HD box to the hdmi input and then to my PJ the picture comes out pink!
The only reason for this that I can think of is due the the fact that it doesn't change the 50hz voltage to 60hz, what do you guys think?
At the moment I'm planning to send it back and exchange for a Yamaha rx-v1700 and hope that works - does anyone have any experience with an imported one?
Thanks,
Steve
