I don't have good things to tell about the quality of the newer Yamaha amplifiers and CD players "Made in Malaysia":
1. A-S2000 idle current factory adjusted to 40mV (!) instead of 4-6mv
2. A-S2100 defective after 18 months (no power on, repaired under warranty)
3. CD-N500 no power on after 25 months (proposed repair costs higher then original price!)
4. CD-S3000 after 22 months of very little use has frequent intermittent dropouts from 0,5-2 seconds.
There is room for improvement.
