I hear a delay when using the AUX input with my TV
0
If you are connecting the AUX input with your cable or satellite box for enjoying TV audio through multiple speakers, you may hear a delay between
when you see someone speak and when you hear the audio. This is because the HEOS system must buffer the audio before it sends it out to the
speakers so that it arrives at all speakers at the same time. (v p. 22)

You can avoid this delay by listening only to the speaker which is directly connected to the set top box.

I hear distortion when using the AUX input
0
The analog output signals from some sources can be fairly strong. If the input level of the source device is turned up high, it could overload the inputs of
the speaker. This is unlikely to cause damage, but can cause distorted sound. Initially, set the volume of the source to a medium – low level, then turn it
up as needed. If you hear distortion, turn down the device’s volume control.
