Does it work? Mines just jammed in the hole not hooked up
The faceplate is warped from being baked by the Florida sun so every time you touch it, the power goes off.
It was stuck on a bro country station and the cd player doesnt work.
I used the remote to get it to an 80s pop channel for background noise. I have been using a portable speaker for my phone

Nice score! It appears we ha e something else in common then.
I am a bonafide fiend of the Yamaha Natural Sound equipment of the early 90s and appreciation of such things goes largely unnoticed in this MSB.
We both know they don't make it like that anymore!
I very recently scored that tuner for 10 bucks and the 300 watt amp for 15 on eBay!

Nobody else bid! Whatever. My system has recently been through a major upgrade but i'm at work right now...

I could really get into old school Nakamichi car audio stuff. I used to compete IASCA many, many moons ago - when that was cool.
Oh yeah. I've been sold on that Yamaha stuff for years. We go Goodwilling quite a bit, and my chick knows better than to ask me to walk around with her inside. As soon I hit the door, I'm headed back to the stereo stuff.... I really screwed up though-When I bought the preamp, I didn't get the amp (mx-1000) too. $$$ Even now those still sell for 350-550.00 on ebay. I did eventually get a good deal on a Sansui amp from the same era. Its really close to the mx in features and performance. Its not a Yamaha though.... Man, 15 bucks for an amp??? Crazy. I've paid 20 bucks just for a cheaper model of their tape decks. So, I have to ask..... Which amp did you get? Model #? What other stuff do you have?

*** A NOTE FOR ALL YOU CASSETTE TAPE HATERS! ***

Yeah, tapes and decks still get used. On eBay 2 days ago, 2 different Nakamichi Dragon decks sold. One went for 1999.00 and the other sold for 1825.00. Plus S/H of course. For a used tape deck that's 25 to 35 years old! MSRP back then was 2500.00. So there! Stop picking on Rusty Nail! Lol. (Please don't pick on me either. I'm kinda sensitive....)

Oh, tell me about some of your completion stuff. That was so huge back then. What years were you doing it?..... (We might want to start a different thread though.... Lol)

If mine was stuck on an 80s pop channel, I'd be forced to shoot it.
