    Vertical line on TV with brand new HK AVR354 receiver
    I've got a brand new Harman-Kardon AVR354 receiver. 10-year-old, or so, CRT TV. Seeing a single translucent vertical line, though it moves around to various positions on the TV. Sometimes it goes away, it's rarely there at receiver power-on (from cold), but appears about 2-5 minutes after. It's there regardless of signal source (I tried cable box, Wii, DVD player, etc). Also tried a 2nd, similar TV (older), different cables (using S-Video and/or composite) with the same result.

    Is this receiver busted?

    If you bypass the receiver... does the line go away?
    If so, I would exchange it.

    Yes, the line is gone when the receiver is bypassed (plus, old receiver did not have th\is problem). Thanks for the quick reply. Just wanted some opinions before I launch the exchange-the-receiver mission.
