Audio Receiver Problem with HDMI Output

[The Monkees]

I recently moved my audio receiver from one shelf to another. When I hooked everything back up I noticed that the sound was a bit off. I checked the speaker wires and everything was working fine. When the audio became very echoing (like I was listening to it in a museum) I started fumbling around with the HDMI cords (the one from the cable box to the receiver and the one from the receiver to the TV) and I noticed it seemed to be the HDMI output. I thought it was the HDMI cable itself, but when I tried a different cable it still kept doing it. If I stand there and move it around while it's plugged in, I can get to the point where it is supposed to be at, but I have to stand there and hold it in place and apply pressure to it in order for it to work. When I tried my BD player also through the receiver all I get is the music but none of the dialogue.

My question is, what exactly is wrong and how can I fix this?

Might need to get it repaired,sounds like(sorry for the pun)you bent the hdmi plug and loosened the connections inside.

Sounds like an intermittent connection in an HDMI cable. I had a similar problem when I bent an HDMI cable into too small a radius behind a TV. I had to replace the cable.

He already said he tried a different cable.

Actually I redid all the speaker wires and now everything seems to work fine.

Thanks though
