Yamaha? Welcome back!

After years of mass market average components Yamaha is making huge strides in the audiophile market with their new "natural sound" integrated amps.  I lost my tube amp to a bad move and replaced it with a Yamaha 2100 integrated amp. I was blown away by the headroom and warm sound. It seems like they have taken notice of the high end market again. Welcome back!

I've always respected Yamaha, back in the 80's, I had a receiver called,  the R-100, that was a really good sounding receiver, still to this day,  best sound for a receiver.

I just purchased the AS 2100 and the CD S2100 its only been a week, but so far so good. Very smooth and clear, plenty of power and build is very high quality. It does remind me of the 70s I know I was there.

Nice score!  These made in Japan products are very fine indeed.
Happy Listening!

A few weeks ago I snagged a used A-S1000 for my daughter's finance, and since they swapped out their previous amp, have put a smile on their faces every time they listen to it driving his Tekton MiniLore speakers!

Nice to see Yamaha importing high end components into the U.S. again!

The Yamaha A-S2100 is a powerhouse of an amp, only it is made in Malaysia.
