I have the unit for around 6 months, mainly for movies and concerts. So far so good.
First issue: Connected the Marantz SACD DVD player via analog 5.1, but both subwoofers won't turn on when playing. The subwoofers are on once and they go back to standby mode quickly...I played the same SACD on my Sony blu ray player and both subwoofers turn on when playing. What is the issue?
Second issue: This receiver will pass through video & audio without turning the unit on. it works for my two 4K blu ray players and one Roku media player.
However it won't work for the same Marantz SACD player mentioned above. For video purpose I use hdmi cable to connect the SACD player to the DVD input of the receiver, but no video when the receiver is not turned on. I swap different inputs for testing purposes, at one time it shows video for a moment but then it dropped? I want this setup because the 2 channels output of the SACD player(the SACD player has 5.1 and 2.0 outputs separately) is connected to a "separate" receiver for other purpose and I need to see the video while playing 2 channels songs/music.
I am using LG ultra short throw projector as my display.

Hi all,
A few years gone by.
I finally connected the XPA-5 to the receiver via pre-out to power my front LCR and side surround speakers.
The receiver still feel very hot after an hour of play time. I thought the XPA-5 will relieve part of it's duty and therefore it should run cooler?
