pete_mac Posted March 28, 2016 Share Posted March 28, 2016 (edited) I'm dead keen on a clean Alpha 607 or 707 NRA or MRX. The 907 NRAs are too rich for my blood at the moment! Bump for this old post... an Alpha 607 MRX is now part of the skippy124 collection! Another box ticked! Pretty amazing how things just pop up out of nowhere. It makes you wonder how much interesting gear is out there waiting to be discovered/purchased... Edited March 28, 2016 by pete_mac 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tasebass Posted March 29, 2016 Share Posted March 29, 2016 (edited) As the @@The Fez would say random pic time..... The RA 1312 needs a look at regarding the phono section already spoken to Skippy124... These vintage amps have great Headphone sections too IMO.....My AKG K702's sound really good through this amp!!! Super vintage headphone set up!! Cheers Tase. Edited March 29, 2016 by Tasebass 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Fez Posted April 1, 2016 Author Share Posted April 1, 2016 Makes me laugh always when I read what Yamaha put on the front panel of the B-1......."stereo basic amplifier" --- printed on one of, if not the most complex power amplifier ever produced.

huxmut Posted April 2, 2016 Share Posted April 2, 2016 So that's where the "B" in B-1 comes from... I wonder what the "1" signifies ?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vintagejapan Posted April 2, 2016 Share Posted April 2, 2016 Yep, nothing Basic about it :-) The 1 I think means when the amp is without the UC controller This way only 1 pair of speakers can be connected UC-1 allows for 5 pairs of speakers to be connected, a bit overkill, but a nice feature if you have the space to have 2 or 3 pairs I your lounge room. I am doing a complete resto on this one. Multiple faults so far, but thank good the outputs were OK😅 B-1 does have the top shelf on the V-fet stable 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
risingfunk Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 Just picked these up: Uher VG 850 integrated amp + EG 750 tuner I think my ears are blocked at the moment, but the amp definitely sounds... different. It might be those speakers, I think there's a reason I don't usually listen to these. Hopefully when my ears clear up I won't regret purchasing them 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
