Dont waste your $ on changing the power cord. If it has been functioning for the past one year, likely your power supplies isnt the issue.

I suspected the protection circuitry is the cause. One of the sensors must have sent the wrong signal back to the CPU triggering the shut down to protect the system itself. Another possible cause is the voltage fluctuation, however, if your 5 mins shut down can be repeatedly achieved without given soundtrack, volume gain or time, then the voltage fluctuation shouldnt be the main problem.

As well, did you changed your speakers, speakers cables lately before the Yammie went into shut down mode? Some speakers are very hard to drive which can cause the amplifier to oscillate and shut down. Loose speaker cables or shorting of them will trigger immediate shut down of the amplifier so i doubt it'll be the case.

Do check them all but i think your amp needs a serviceĀ  sweat.gif

Likely to be the power supply board that is common on a number of Yamaha V series.

Anybody knows the price of V673 and where selling? Saw one at Desa LY but the salesman didn't know the price. I presumed they just got the stock, but that was about 3 weeks ago.

Try Harvey Norman. List price is RM2599 if I recall correctly.

Hi Yamaha fans, can guide me where to get a good deal for RX v473 + 5.1 speakers around PJ or Kl. my budget is only $2500.00.

Planning to get Yamaha 5.1 NS-P40 speakers along with the receiver do I have any other choice without exceeding the budget?

If budget is limited, spend on the cheapest AVR that meets your needs and the rest on good speakers. Even 2 x Front + Centre as a start is better. Maybe some cheap speakers for back surround if you need them now. Speakers last a long time but AVR gets technologically displaced after a couple of years. The Yamaha entry level AVR is V373 and is plenty to handle your initial setup I think.

Finally got my new toy today. Any tips on how to maximize the performance?

Run YPAO and then use manual setup to fine tune the speakers and subwoofer. Pay close attention to subwoofer crossover frequency and dB as you may need to fine tune a fair bit.

Enjoy !

Run YPAO and play around with sub level manually until it sounds right. Crossover frequency probably needs some work. Try something between 60Hz to 100Hz as a start.

Do you need 4k video upscaling and pass through as "future proof"? Thats one main difference you need to ask yourself.
