STANWAL, to state that " I don't think Yamaha made them so it is an OEM one or a renamed model from another company." you have to be pretty sure . this is simple not true. I really think you are very knowledgeable in audio field, and you can list all people you know, but if you are not sure, do not post misleading advises. Yamaha, which i currently own, along with sony 8000 i also own, is a very decent table and by no means OEM. Denon 59L, i used to own, could not produce decent sound, being hooked up to VAC PHI-2 trough VAC PHI-70, trough stealth audio indra cables, and meadowlark IBIS speakers. I write from my own experience, not from words of others.
