I bought a Yamaha A2070 for stereo for its remote, its stereo quality and its good phono stage.These were seriously expensive when new and are ridiculously cheap now. See the link below to a closed ebay sale.
My rating of its's sound in stereo mode:
- It does not sound as good as my Plinius 9100.
- It does not sound as good as my ARC SP9 with my Yamaha B-2
- It sounds better than any vintage receiver that I've listened to.
- It sounds better than the NAD Surround receivers I've heardI suspect that TOTL prologic units from other manufacturers (eg Denon) would also be very good.
I think that they are so cheap becauss people looking for surround want more than prologic and people looking for a stereo don't think of them.
