Bringing an oldie but goodie back

[jbeckva]

Well, just made arrangements to buy what I sometimes kick myself for selling - A Yamaha R-9 Receiver. 125 per channel, with the same auto-class A capability as my M-80 but at a lesser scale (I think 10W max?). I did love the sound coming out, and the one I'm getting is "pristine" with all the goodies (and hinges, if you're familiar with those problem children) intact.

That'll probably take the place of the AV-1 for the duration of the rework on the M-80. Has a killer tuner and phono section, from what I recall. Lots of power too - the 125 is a real conservative rating.

Pics this weekend, when I close the deal!
