Question

What does "error dsp" mean?

I have an onkyo surround sound system, and have used it for many years (no problems). Now the main box says "error dsp" and I cannot hear anything. Does anyone know how to fix it?

Answer 1

DSP stands for Digital Sound Processor.  It sounds like your unit may have a problem.  Try unplugging the unit from the wall electrical outlet and leave it unplugged for several minutes.  Then plug it back in and see what happens.  Microprocessors sometimes hick-up and a power reset will fix it.
