This will piss me off as I can't forsee leaving the shops with just a new receiver but a new 60in telly and probably a few other goodies. I <3 Bananas electronic sh*t that only lasts 5 years. Dads rotel amp is probably older than me and still smashes the watts nicely 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All stock bar the k&n panel filter Silver Donating Members 8,061 Member For: 12y 10m 30d Gender: Male Location: Perth Posted 01/04/14 04:01 PM Share Posted 01/04/14 04:01 PM (edited) Ain't that the truth! I had an old Yamaha amp that my old man passed down to me from way back when...it was all knobs and dials...none of this fancy button or remote business. But then it started to zap me and breaking my speakers...so I upgraded to a new Yamaha unit, which promptly died just outside warranty. Lucky I knew the repair guy from when I was working at West Coast HiFi, so got away with new parts much cheaper than otherwise and it's still going strong now.Also WPMO; not having everything organised in time to pick up the new car before going back to work for a week :( oh well, gives me something to look forward to when I get home I guess.
