At https://www.manualslib.com/manual/247837/Sony-Str-De685.html?page=43#manual, the last two TROUBLESHOOTING sections [and the continuation on the following page] deal with sound issues. Review all of them. If your issue persists, or if the suggestions appear not to apply to your model, you'll have to consult Sony: see https://www.contacthelp.com/Sony/customer-service.
Hope this is useful. Please don't forget to click the Accept This Answer button if you do accept it. My aim is to provide reliable helpful answers, not just a lot of them. See https://www.helpowl.com/profile/Odin.
