Why do we only modify the Yamaha AS301, AS501 and AS801 integrated amps

Aside from customer modifications. There are many reasons behind why we only do internal modification on Yamaha AS301, AS501 and AS801. One of the reason is because these models has minimal logic circuitry. We explain why this is important.

As an architect, I try to apply the same logic and thinking that was presented in this video. Proven methods and technologies are enduring and contribute to the overall quality of the experience.

[@angela-gilbert]

Make total sense.

[@VirusForPrez]

Although my 1998 integrated Simaudio amp is not the most transparent in my collection ,it is the most organically musical and most enjoyable i own ! a keeper 'till i croak ....

[@angela-gilbert]

Not the most transparent but the most musical and enjoyable. What does that tell you? 🙂 I think you get it.

[@tommyboy1628]

Love this

[@coolruler8856]

Great explanation.

[@angela-gilbert]

There are more. This video only touched the surface.

[@HalfVccTronYente]

i really like all your thoughts with those controls, yeah i prefered mechanical controls

[@angela-gilbert]

Most of the new things are design to be thrown away, non-repairable. Just about any technician will say they can fix a 50 year old amp but they cannot fix a 3 year old digital amp with all the logic controls. It is very sad when the world is talking about reduce, reuse and recycle.

[@sadge9697]

In your opinion, which is a better amp for the $300 power supply conversion: the Yamaha AS301 or the Cambridge Audio AXA25? It looks like the Yamaha probably has more room internally for the capacitors?

[@angela-gilbert]

Based on the picture on the net of the AXA25, it has way more room than the Yamaha. However, AXA25 is no longer available in Canada. They still sell in Europe as far as we know but not in Canada nor USA. AXA25 is a better amp for modification than the Yamaha AS301. It doesn't have any logic controls.

We live in a world where we keep re-inveniting the wheel.

[@jasonwebb6484]

Mike doing a hard sell on the Cambridge Audio stuff - ha ha!

[@angela-gilbert]

He tries sometime.......... 🙂

[@worfrozhenko4032]

sounds more emotional than logical

[@angela-gilbert]

Perhaps to you it is. However we have years of prove mechanical switches can be repaired and logic circuits are a throw away. All the surround receivers which last only 5 to 10 years. Manufactures don't wantnto support them because they need to keep selling more new boxes. Not us. We want things to last a long time and we are building thing to do just that.

[@angela-gilbert]

The type of logic that doesn't need repair. 🙂

@@angela-gilbert logic is a byproduct of a fixed viewpoint...oh my, somewhat contradictory...sending love to everyone...

@@michaelj.4187 We are getting into deeper thinking territory. I do get what you say. It is something worth thinking about when there is time.
