Why does my KOSS Dvd Player/Surround Sound System not have any sound when I hook up Coaxial Audio?

By admin · Friday, January 1st, 2010

Hello, I have a KOSS KS2117 5.1 DVD Player/Surround sound system. I have recently gotten an HD PVR and a HD TV, so I wanted to upgrade my sound quality from typical analog audio cables (the red and white). So I went out and bought Coaxial audio cables thinking I was set.

My HDPVR has a Digital Audio Out (it’s Coaxial, because there is also an Optical Audio Out). My new 1080p upconverting DVD player also has a Coaxial Digital Out. I’ve tried connecting both to the ‘Coaxial In’ on my KOSS system, and I can’t get the DVD player to spit out any sound. I’ve tried to put the KOSS on Aux 1, Aux 2, and even DVD mode. Nothing. I can’t find anything in the KOSS settings either. The Audio menu on the KOSS lists DRC (Off/On), and Digital Output (Dolby Digital and DTS, both are currently checked).

Why would there be no sound? What am I missing??

Check your reciever. You have to set one of the inputs as digital and then you’ll get the sound.

How do you do that?? I have not seen a menu option to do that.
