This era of Yamaha gear is some of the most ergonomically satisfying hi-fi ever built, someone should give John the required lolly & pronto, if only for the chance to use those beautiful square sided selector & flip switches!
It's got a pre-out, so it would make a great cheap pre-amp for someone, if nothing else. A pair of phono stages. Two tape loops as well, if you're into recording.

Cheers

Yes can be used as preamp has built in phono and headphones socket The tone controls can be defeated

How much do you want John?

[DSJR]

Beautiful controls, slicker than the *10 series which folowed IMO. Use with efficient speakers for best sound.

[John]

How much do you want John?

£30 including postage or if you going to Scalford Hall then £20 and you can pick up from me. I am not sure how much postage will cost but think that is fair
I think due to its tidy layout you could really turn this into something special

[Ali Tait]

Ok, I'll have it please John. Not sure I'll make Scalford, so could you post please? I'll PM details.

[John]

Cool Item sold

[Rare Bird]

Nice one Ali, great little amps, when you've done with it you know where i am :lolsign:

This was easily the best period for Yammi's the 'CT7000' for instance was a beautiful looking & sounding tuner if you ever see one.You might have notice the present Yammi amp aesthetics are not a million miles away from the original designs.

[Ali Tait]

I will keep you in mind mate. Yes, I'm familiar with the CT7000 though I've never heard one.Great looking things.
