Mono NES only goes through Center Speakers!

[erik343]

Hi,

When I hook up my RGB Nintendo NES to the Framemeister, it outputs mono on both left and right channels, and I end up with the sound only going through my center speaker? I have a TCL 49S403 TV and a TX-NR676 receiver. I am using 7.1 channel surround sound. The Framemeister XRGB-mini is hooked up directly to the TV. I have the Roku TV set to use Dolby Digital and DTS.

The SNES and N64 works fine on all speakers.

Thanks.

You need to adjust the setting for how to handle mono audio on your receiver. That is completely normal behavior.

I have a sibling, the TX-NR555. You need to change the listening mode (Mode button on the Remote) from whatever it's set to to something like Direct (For just L+R) or AllChStereo to spread the stereo sound across all of your speakers.

Personally, I prefer to keep everything in Direct mode, but you can do what you like.

Thanks that fixed it!

I set it to full mono or full stereo...
