I saw the back of an integrated and it depressed me.


Recently took a look at an ad for a Technics SU-G700M2 integrated amplifier, and honestly it made me a little sad for me, my hobby and the gear I ended up with.

When I "wore a younger man's shoes" I needed inputs! I was going to have a turntable, a Tandberg reel to reel and cassette player, and that new fangled CD player would be there as well. 

This new integrated has 5 digital inputs and 2 analog inputs... and anyway I just want to drink while playing Billy Joel radio on my Roon streamer.

I replaced a old Nikko 7075 with a Outlaw Audio RR2160MKll,  best decision I ever made.  Plenty of Analog inputs also has digital inputs, 2 sub inputs, Analog Bass Control.  It's a Class A/B, Also has AM/FM HD, Internet Radio and a streaming app.  Sounds Amazing too (with my speakers. I use it 2.1 setup sometimes 4.1 when it's cocktail time and want to get the Led out. I understand when people say technology ruined things and I agree to a point.  For Example, my wife and I went over friends house for food and drinks well lots of drinks, (we did stayed over)  It was a big get together, 3/4 of everyone was on there fracking cell phones.  I yelled out "hey we haven't scene each other in a year!  Lets try to stay off the phones for a hour!"   When we left the next morning I said lets put our phones in a bag when everyone comes over?
