WIFES WORKING SO I GOTTA PLAY---- this is one of the cr620's i decided to keep. It was my first cr model ive owned. I have it hooked to Monitor 7's and it does a fantastic job. These Yamahas are built tanks.aired it out. Lubed it. Deoxit.. Easy to clean/service in 15 min's and shouldnt need to be touched for another 2 years id say. I keep it covered with a fine clothe when not in use....gonna post some pictures of the inside. So start of today was enjoyable....Attachment not found.f

    Betcha sounds as good as it looks, too! :cheesygrin:

    Nice job.

    H9: If you don't trust what you are hearing, then maybe you need to be less invested in a hobby which all the pleasure comes from listening to music.

    Excellent Boston1450..
    Keep the pics coming I just might get around to opening my up to check out the guts and see how much cleaning I'm in for or the Yamaha dealer, lol
    I really would like to learn though so keep the pics of the inside and tools you might be using..
    I can finally say I am HOOKED on audio, years earlier I was just listening to music on whatever really was available or not maybe because it did not sound good, now I'm in with both feet always looking for something else...
    Thanks to this forum and it's members, through the Good and Bad...lol

    This little yammy only puts out 35-40wpc and i can bring it up to 88db's (more if needed) and the sound quality is rather pleasant to my ears with the monitor 7's..my cr1040 with the 10's sound very nice too. But the monitor 7's impress me alot for there size factor & performance....

    That's a nice looking unit as well Randy..
    Lol, at the place I go most stereo electronics and such are usually priced about $14.99
    Even the stuff that's worth .99 or should be free, lol
