After 38 years (I bought it new in 1980) my Panasonic SU-2800 stereo integrated amplifier has died.
I was playing a record, side one finished so I flipped the disc, placed down the stylus and the amp let out a loud hum on the right channel and refused to do anything else. This hum/buzzing is present on all inputs and even does it when the volume is set to minimum and sources like cd, turntable, tape deck are off and rca plugs pulled out.
R.I.P. my old Panny - I think it did well to last as long as it did.
Question here now is I am looking at a replacement and the candidates are a Pioneer A10 or a Yamaha AS301 - anyone have any thoughts/experience on these?
They both have all the inputs I require. The Yamaha has remote control, which would be novel to me for hi-fi......oh and more power....
