Sony HT-CT80 sound drop out intermittently

debsuz600 — Sat, 02 Apr 2016 10:00:11 GMT

I have used this soundbar since Dec 2015 and when playing Blu-ray or DVD discs, the sound drops out intermittently, for a few seconds. I have noticed that this problem appears on other Sony Soundbars.

Connections, Optical Audio out cable

Blu-ray Sony BDPS1500 HDMI Gold cable

TV Bravia 32CX523 HDMI

At the moment I have changed the optical cable from the one supplied by Sony, to a thicker one purchased online. I will update this post if that has solved the problem.

Hi there

Just curious if swapping the cable solved your problem? Or are you still experiencing audio drop-outs?

Cheers

CHanging the optical cable and swapping the blu ray player for a newer model did not fix this sound issue. In fact it was getting more and more noticeable. Returned to store for a full refund after three months use.
