What size banana plugs do you put on the Yamaha RX V673? My speaker wire is 16g. Do you use them on both ends ( to the receiver and the speaker) I ask only because this dum dum sold me 10 banana plugs for 5 speaker, if you needed them for both ends you would want 20. Right? 10 straight 10 angled.

Hey, yeah that can be frustrating.

When you turn it up do you hear the relay or a clicking sound, then you turn it on and it comes back below the +2db?

Try unplugging All the speaker wires from the unit. Turn on the unit and listen for the click.
after the click, turn it up past the 2+ db mark and see if you hear it click or shut down. If it did not click off, then suspect a shorted crossover on one of your speakers.
2nd test is to plug in One speaker, and test it at high volume, it will not harm it. If it shuts off disconnect that speaker and try another. Only one at a time.
If it works at high volume, you need to isolate one of your speakers and i bet it has a shorted crossover that has been cooked. P.S. If one is bad, suspect they will fail at a later date.
If they all fail, use a friends speaker and try it before sending it to a repair shop.

P.S. i found one on ebay i think you can get for under $100 bucks in the box.

must be the right speaker wire, sounds to easy I know but maybe your wiring is grounding out the audio to that channel.

SOURCE: Replacing AV Receiver what to buy

Looking to buy new receiver so far only have two that appear to be good value for money and within my budget. They are Marantz NR1501 and Denon 1909. also looking at the Quintet 5-channel Klipsch speakers. This is about as far as I have got but will continue to check out the reviews a little longer before making my final decision.

I have the same issue. I took the speaker apart and tested with a meter and both the mid and tweater were wide open, in short blow out. Not sure what caused this but the speaker needs to be replaced.
