I pulled the trigger on an M-80 so I,m offering my 2 Yamaha M-50s for sale,,both of these are used as my daily drivers,,and both are in great working and looking condition,, the original use for them was thru my M-80 Pre which is designed for amp inputs but it developed a bad rca input so I jacked them into my Macintosh Pre which is not designed for that ,,hence the purchase of the M-80 ,,amps are advertised a 110 WPS and have been tested and inspected a couple years ago by Jeff Jensen here in the cities,,Jeff is my Tech who specializes in Carver,Phase Linear as well as TT Rebuilds I,m asking 225.00 each but will listen to serious offers,,shipping is around 60.00 I accept money orders ,certified checks or pay-pal (add 3% for Pay-pal) pics and other info available just contact me via this forum,,,,,these amps though listed as a pair are available as seperates thanks FF

Must learn to read. I was thinking TH. Actually, this IS Phoenix so I guess I'm half right.

Or Half- but oh well I've heard that at least once.

The M-80 Has taken a hit during shipping,,It,s insured and should be repairable back to 100% but needs to go to my Tech,,,anybody out there got any parts for a Yammie Amp with 3 Speaker Inputs looking for the inside bracket that the binding posts attach to

Is that the amp that has the big ass speaker connectors that are like an inch in diameter and stick out almost as far?

Yes it is. You screw the wire in via a side hole or use banana plugs.

I was given one w/bad channel and a bad C-60 pre, sold then to two different AK members.

[/quote:1pnmieja]Yes Webb I took a look inside and it appears the Inputs may be ok at least from what I see,,i think the the major damage is to the plastic Bracket inside the amp that the inputs attach to,,I,ll know more once i get inside it on saturday,,I also told UPS that if they want to inspect the amp for shipping damages they need to make an appointment to see it as ,I won,t give them a second chance to F--- it up more,,,I,m lucky the UPS driver is also a customer of mine so he set the deal up and the inspector will come by Monday,,

Doesn't your M-50 have the same type of speaker connectors? If so have your tech cannibalize one of them.

 

[orange]

Web, since the center is a banana jack it couldn't hurt to get some.

i think the the major damage is to the plastic Bracket inside the amp that the inputs attach to,,

You could use something like JB Weld on the inside of the amp to hold the bracket together.

 

[speakerman1]

Even Super glue. Or you could pop rivet it. But the binding posts are messed up? Do you want original or an upgrade?

the M-50 in puts are different and are not as heavy duty ,,and work to well to become donors,,,talked to Avionic this am ,,again he says it,s not uncommon for the plastic brackets to break ,his advice is a donor deck or to get all the pieces together and build a dam around it and pour epoxy cement over it and bind all the pieces together he also said that the Fact that the unit fires up and doesn,t go into protect mode is an excellent sign

I,d say at this point I Need to see how many if any need replaced ,if they need replaced i,d want the best available

That would be WBT in my opinion. These are the speaker outputs right?

Is this what they look like?

If it were me I would change them out for 5 way binding posts even if not broken. But that is me.

Here is what I can get and my price. I'm hoping you don't have to log in to see it.

Also I have some sheet metal here if you want. Just give me the dimensions and I'll cut it and paint it.

Had my tech look at and take some pics,, there are no cracked circuit boards ,, he,s against piecing it back together and wants to bulid a new Heavy gauge plastic bracket and mount 1st class binding posts to it ,,also found two leaking caps that will have to be replaced all this comes at a price but he says when he,s done with it it will melt my walls,,

IE 8 doesn't like to open the Enlarge window by itself, but you can right click, drop down to Proerties and click, copy the URL (make sure you scroll down over all of it) and use Img to insert it here. You cannot bring the entire app with you, only the images.

Is that what you were talking about?

The M-80 has different connectors. These are like the ones found on Technics SA-x00, some 80s Sansuis and a few others.

THESE are M-80 terminals...

Replacing the originals with "real" binding posts is a great idea. Even tho the posts on my M-80 are fine, that's one thing I plan on doing when I get to recapping and refurbing it (which should be shortly... whenever the ole tax return comes). That and banana plugs on my speaker cables - so I can quickly and easily switch 'em around with various amps and receivers.
