Best Receiver Ever Made short of the MD-208


Building that 3rd room(basement) system for the fun of it! Whats the best receiver to build a 2-channel with CD and turntable around? I've like the SR-3A Nakamichi,..but what have you liked?

Yamaha R2000- Best beast ever built. 150 watts/ch and came with a world class (at the time) phono stage and tuner. Yamaha took their best separates at the time and combined them into one unit. Was approx 22 inches wide and all internals were isolated with separate power supplies. Had selectors for three sets of speakers and two headphone jacks that could really run headphones. Were being built sometime around 1984. The first Solid state receiver I heard that didn't sound like solid state in the highs and mids. Wish I would have kept it.-Aaron
That's easy. Luxman 1120A. Smoother than Yamaha and with a superior tuner section. Also better looking...and I've owned several Yamahas because I like them too.
