This past weekend I turned on my trusty H/K AVR-235 to listen to a DVD (Gov't Mule - The Deepest End) and to my shock and horror my reciever went into "Protect" mode. After doing some initial analysis I discovered that it only went into protect mode when my surround speakers were engaged. I could listen to 2-channel + sub just fine.

For my surrounds I use the Bose mini-cubes through the bass(less) module. this is a temporary setup until I get some QS8's!! The rest of my system are M60Ti mains and a SVS PB10 sub.
Does anyone have any knowledge as to what would cause the reciever to go into "Protect" mode? I haven't finished my analysis yet but i'm hoping to prove that there is an issue with my Bose and not my HK. Any comments (other then Bose bashing are appreciated). Thanks!!
