My Sherwood RD-6105 shuts off
It's acting as if a short or near-short exists on the amp outputs at medium levels.
Disconnect one of your speakers at a time and try it. Make sure your speaker wires are tight and not shorting to anything and all channels have 6-ohms or more load.
Sherwood Rd-6505 hisses from both speakers
The soft hiss that you are hearing from both speakers of your Sherwood RD-6505 may be caused by a few different factors:
- Ground loop: A ground loop occurs when there are two or more devices connected to a common ground, causing a voltage difference between the grounds. This voltage difference can create interference, resulting in a hissing sound.
- Faulty cable or connection: Check all of the connections and cables between your audio source and the Sherwood RD-6505. Make sure that they are plugged in securely and that the cables are in good condition. A faulty cable or connection can create interference and result in a hissing sound.
- Amplifier issue: The hissing sound may also be caused by an issue with the amplifier circuitry in the Sherwood RD-6505. If this is the case, you may need to take the device to a professional for repair.
- Power issue: If the power supply of the Sherwood RD-6505 is unstable, it can also result in a hissing sound. Check the power supply and ensure that it is providing the appropriate voltage.
If you have checked all of these potential causes and are still experiencing the hissing sound, it may be best to contact a professional for further diagnosis and repair.

Sherwood RD 6506 - centre speaker not working
Hi,
If the speakers work during the test, then the issue might be with how surround sound is programmed on your tv. You should look into your sound settings with your tv's remote. Thank you.
Connecting a subwoofer to sherwood rv-5050r
Hello Kingsley, you can connect an active SubWoofer to the subwoofer output, which is located on the back panel of your Sherwood
This model does not have an output for passive subwoofer (without its own amplification)
I hope you can connect and enjoy a good sound
Greetings Franco Dosil
Hola Kingsley, puedes conectar un SubWoofer activo a la salida de subwoofer, que se encuentra en el panel trasero de tu Sherwood
Este modelo, no trae salida para subwoofer pasivo (sin amplificaci?n propia)
Espero puedas conectar y disfrutar de un buen sonido
Saludos Franco Dosil
