[junkaudio]

thanks for the manual iám just reading the original prospect from 1984
see c2a m50 m70 c50 c70 b6 ns1000 ns 2000
i sold these things in 1984-2002 so there is great memory

Can you make a scan of the prospect?

 

[junkaudio]

yes i can pm me i get a scanner in about 4 days text is german but this thing is nice

Junk, you've got a really very fine preamp--$68 is a steal for the quality of the Yamaha C-70! TOTL goodness in every tune.
Happy listening.

 

[the-real-mandak]

junk no problem, I read german.

Nice preamp. But, just in case you don't know, solid-state is not like tubes. You don't have to leave the top off for it to run well and stay cool.

this thing runs quite hot it is class a preamp so it makes more heat than my mcintosh mx 110 pre.i had a yamaha c4 before and must say the c 70 sounds way better :yes:

Check the AK Yamaha manual database for the manual. I believe they have it there. Otherwise, I have a C-70 users manual that I can take to work on Monday. We have a scanner/copier at the office that will scan multiple pages to a single pdf document.

That would be wonderful.
I did check the AK Yamaha database we dont have the C-70 and I am sure Njord Noatun would want that one to add we really need it the Database.

I'll PM you my personal email

Your a real life saver :lazer: and thank you very much. :yes:
