Yamaha A-S2100BL Natural Sound Integrated Amplifier

I think the first high-quality audio component that I remember seeing as a kid was when I was like 11 or 12 I went to a buddy's house and his dad had this Yamaha with the vu meters on the front the thing weighed a ton and it sounded really big and clean this is the Yamaha s 2100 and I feel like Yamaha is bringing back some of that vintage feel into a more modern integrated amplifier this is definitely built for audiophiles and even though it's a fairly simple piece of gear there's a lot to it so let's check it out most of the pictures I've seen of this online are the silver version but I got to tell you I prefer the black you still get a nice brushed metal front facade though and buried right smack in the center are the two vu meters now that is decidedly old-school and you know they're a little bit small to see from across the room but I still love the aesthetic it brings to this piece
