I bought an M4 in 1978. Used in my system for 14 years. Then used in a bedroom system for my son thru high school and then taken with to college. Now married 3 years, he still uses it in their apartment system. Currently house hunting, I assume it will be replaced once they're moved in and settled. 36 years and all the lights work and never missed a beat. Better knock on wood.
Yamaha Amp Nostalgia
I remember the Yamaha C4 and M4 with some nostalgia, as they were beyond my high school student budget, and quite beautiful with their back lit power and speaker selector switches.
20 years later, they seem to be reasonably well bid on the used market, although the lamp lights are often burned out and not easy to replace, apparently.
So last week, I impulsively bought an M2, because it looked even more powerful and more interesting than the M4, and the one I found seemed to be in good shape with working lights.
There is not much info on the web - does anyone know anything about this amp?
Thank you.
