So today I got about a 1 hour break after working about 11 hours, and decided to F around with the Home Office "RIG"
I recently moved the LSi 7s upstairs and plugged them in to the Qinpu A3 mini amp, and it sounded good. Today after stumbling over my Yamaha M80, i decided WTF plug that bad biotch in.
So I plugged the out put of the Qinpu into the M80 inputs and connected the LSi 7's to the terminals, and fired up my laptop with Spotify playing thru an Audioquest Dragonfly.
It really kicks ****...The propeller on my hat was spinning at warp speed!!! If you have never heard an M80, do so before they become extinct. I have an awesome specimen considering it must me going on 30 years old. Hope I get another 20 out of it. Shout out to Falconcry
I do need a bit of cable managment
oh yeah a pic:

I usually either eat them or give them to the dogs. :-)
Seriously though that's really cool. Nothing like unexpected audio surprises, especially if its with stuff just laying around. Enjoy! -

Did you get Unified Messaging too? You get voicemails in your email as .WAV files. Cisco is the shizzle 4 sureMy New Year's resolution is 3840 × 2160

My company called it Unified Communication. We don't get WAV files in our voicemail that I am aware of... And as the IT guy I should probably know if we do lol....."....not everything that can be counted counts, and not everything that counts can be counted."

Glad you are enjoying the synergy.
I'm a fan of the old Yamaha's myself. I have 2 M80's, a M70, and a M85. Class A will definitely bring some heat. Enjoy.2-ch System: Parasound P/LD 2000 pre, Parasound HCA-1000 amp, Parasound T/DQ Tuner, Phase Technology PC-100 Tower speakers, Technics SL-1600 Turntable, Denon 2910 SACD/CD player, Peachtree DAC iT and X1asynchorus USB converter, HSU VTF-3 subwoofer. -
Same system we use at the USDA. The Unified Messaging is great and annoying all at once. Great in that I can erase my annoying voicemails from my email without ever having to pick up the handset. Hehe."Some people find it easier to be conceited rather than correct."
"Unwad those panties and have a good time man. We're all here to help each other, no matter how it might appear." DSkip -
Don't those Yammies run in Class A for a few watts! In any case, pairing tubes with an SS amp often yields good results!
Have fun (love the Knight Rider meters on the front!--very "period appropriate").

That's amazing Mike, that amp is like 30 years old and still kicking ****.:cheesygrin: When I hear this ,I have to seriously wonder if the amps we are buying today like Emotiva, Parasound, Adcom, W4S, Outlaw Audio etc... are still going to be kicking **** 30 years from now? The Japanese sure know how to make them.

I guess the quality 2 channel stuff will last, but for multi channel we will all probably evolve into the next technology anyway, and the 5 and 7 and 9 and 11 channel stuff will be handed down. The question is will it survive the zombie apocalypse?My New Year's resolution is 3840 × 2160

I usually look for recipe that needs leftover ingredients. :loneranger: Do not just toss those leftovers! You need to make them last, because you are a responsible citizen of the world.
