That looks great! I've had some Yamaha gear over the years and was always impressed by the sound. It seems all they sell now are AVRs. Sign of the times I guess.

That is not the case. They recently came back in the Hi Fi domain and make an excellent line of amplifiers. Since late 2018, they introduced their separate amplifier/preamp combo. You can see in the pictures attached I snapped at the Montreal Audio Show last week. The speakers are the NS-5000 and it comes from the lineage of the legendary NS-1000M.

Think the problem may be finding them below the border. Canada's importer often brings in Yamaha audio products that are next to impossible to find down here. Once upon a time the USA importer provided all manuals for Yamaha audio as downloads. Even carried the Be-domed tweeters & mid-range drivers for the NS-1000/1000M. All that went away around 2000, or so. Essentially no support for vintage gear and none of Yamaha's highest end products. Talk to the importer.

My first serious audio component was the Yamaha. CR-800 Receiver. I bought it in 1974 along with a pair of very good Yamaha 3 way speakers. Throw in a Dual Turntable and I loved it. Wish I still had it.

I've owned a CA-420, 620, 800, 810, 1010, 2020 & A-2000 and most of the matching tuners, plus too many Yamaha preamps, amps & CDPs to list. Still own a T-85 and am negotiating for a T-2. All wonderful pieces of gear.
