    Weird Issue with Yamaha R-50

    Hello all, my next project is a Yamaha R-50. I am fixing it up for a family member, and when I first inspected the unit, the only issue seemed to be scratchy controls. As long as the buttons weren't moved, it sounded great. All I did was open up the receiver and find the very small holes on the...

    CA610 II Protection Relay Slooooooooow

    Hey All, Looking at a CA610 II Amp for a friend as they said it's taking longer and longer to "turn on" as they use it. I've looked into it a bit and have noticed the protection relay does take about 2-3 minutes to activate with the power on, then the amp operates normally. Once warm, if I...

    Yamaha Amplifier

    I want a great Yamaha power amp to run my main system. My speakers are biggish Celestion Ditton 66 floorstanders which apparently like high current, probably in order to grip the 12” bass drivers. My question is: In which descending order of sound quality would people recommend the various...

    Yammie A1 amp vs. Sansui AU 717?

    Has anyone ever heard these two side by side? Impressions? I have been listening to my (restored) 717 for nearly ten years and enjoy it just fine. I am intrigued by the A1. When you look at the specs, it appears the A1 has an edge, particularly in damping, SNR, and separation. I run a restored...
