I recently got this system, and, despite many hours of frustration, I could not get it to work as a home theater system. I get the center and the main R/L speakers to work just fine, but the rears, at best omit a very faint sound from the tweeters, while the other drivers are dead.
The previous owner had the system working, I am told.

The system:
A 568.2 processor
DSP5500HC center/sub
DSP6000 main R/L
DSP5000 rear R/L
(Meridian radio and CD player)

The setup:
All digital cables are connected. Output 7-8 goes to the master rear, using Input 1, and from there to the other one.
All comm are daisy-chained and the source/volume shows on all 6 displays identically and changes with volume changes.
The system is set to 5 S DDD
The rear speakers are set as type 6, Ls and Rs s, which seems to be left surround master and right surround slave
All channel gains in the system are 0 DB

Sources:
I know that some modern audio sources are ‘too’ advanced, I still get nothing., but it seems that even when the source is a simple Dolby 5.1, I get no rear sound. I tried direct input from m smart Roku TV, from the cable box, using a splitter with ARC support and a DVD/Blu-ray player with Toslink.

Any help will be appreciated.

Regards,
Joe.
