"
I'm not convinced the move to toroidal transformers is a good one. The best attribute of the current crop of Yamaha integrateds is the bass extension. It's my suspicion that some of that is attributable to the EI transformers."
You may have something here. Maybe that is why Luxman still uses EI transformers in their integrated amps. With that said, the 3000 series has always had a toroidal and from much of what I have read, bass drive capabilities is not lacking.
