It is most likely the audio circuit board. If you have experienced a power outage without a surge suppressor, this could damage the i.c.'s located on the audio sound card. I would check to see that the mute button is not activitated, as well as making sure that you did not hit another input accidentally, i.e- hdmi input, 1.,2., or how ever many inputs are on your remote control. Depending on whether you have a hdmi cable, component cable, make sure connection is secure.
