That70sguy they are a beautiful pair of Yamaha seperates you got there. Glad to hear everything fell into place and they arrived safely. At some point I have to thin out the herd and probably will part with my second MX-2000 and a CDX-2000. Hate to break up the rest of the Yamaha 2000 system, MX-2000, CX-2000, CDX-2020, TX-2000 and PX-2 turntable. I'm going to try a Threshold amp to see if it unseats the MX-2000, my gut feeling is it's going to be a close call. That's how good these Yamaha 2000 seperates are when it's a toss up with some TOTL Threshold gear from the same time both were mfg.
