Latest Best Thrift/CL/Dumpster/Ebay Score!

[icenine]

Passed on some Styx CDs and a Journey CD...there are some roads I do not want to travel down.

Left a very nice looking Yamaha CR-620. They wanted $40 but I have too many amps and I know this one would have something wrong with it.....but it was in nice shape.
I already have a new Yammie anyway.

Hard for me to leave an amp at that price. From 2009 if the date is correct.

It has an outputs also...what takes an amp outputs? I now the preamps goes in the inputs right?

Don't the outputs go to the speakers? Or are these like RCA outputs? So it has RCA's marked "output" and regular old speaker binding posts as well?

EDIT -

OK. I just looked at some images of this piece and I'm pretty sure it's an integrated amp.

So the "line out" RCA terminals are for using it as a preamp, bypassing it's own amplifier section, and running it into a separate power amp. I think. I think your CD player and tuner or turntable or other stuff plugs into the "inputs".

But...5 BUCKS???? SERIOUSLY?????? 5 BUCKS????????

I know they sell it at Walmart and Sears...but it looks pretty spiffy to me. And from my experience, watts is pretty much watts.

RCA outs as well as A and B speaker binding posts....

It as volume and balance knob and two sets of imputs ...I guess a sub could be run or another line source like a cd player...so I guess it is an integrated amp?


This is a thrift shop across the street from where I work..........picked up JBL 4406s three months ago for $10.
