Default Problem with Onkyo A-8500 (Integra) Amplifier

It sounds like you are using 4 ohm speakers. Most amplifiers are only
rated for 8 ohm minimum impedence.


Using 4 ohm speakers on an amp rated for 8 ohms would not cause low,
distorted sound unless something was damaged by drawing too much current
from the amp. Since the system worked fine for a long time, the symtom
described may be just what he suggested, a relay problem.
