I met you guys at Florida audio show. You guys were so nice and cool and approachable . This video really helps as I owned currently Yamaha as3200. I would love to do business with you guys in near future. Also you have all my goto brands.

I have the A-S1200, which is a phenomenal integrated.

Another great review. Love the meters in those Amps.

this yamaha sounds really good as ever i have a C1 pre and B1power and they are very old but never saw a control amplifier with so many functions ,anything one might need is there and works since the 70´s, all inputs can be leveled in the back, and the power amp. as 5 outputs for 5 pairs of speakers

Those little KEF bookshelf speakers were surprisingly good. 👍 The base hit was very noticeable.

I just picked up the R-N1000A and absolutely love it.

The Yamaha AS3200 is my dream integrated amplifier. I currently have the Yamaha AS 701 and I'm very happy with it's performance, looks and build quality . I matched it with the the Yamaha NS 555 speakers, the Yamaha CD 303 and the Yamaha turntable. I also got the Klipsch reference 800f speakers and the Klipsch SW121 subwoofer. I'm very happy with the sound quality. Can you please review the Yamaha NS 555 speakers and the AS 701 integrated amplifier? Many thanks, Brian

I have the previous model, A-S3000. Beautiful amplifier. Love it

Great comparisons, I enjoyed them. Refer to Lenny's question, AMT (Air Motion Tweeter) have been around for some time. Dr. Heil designed AMT and used it in ESS speakers back in California in 1972. thanks for video.

I have the R-S300. Every bit as good as the higher end models like the A-S1200. Well built & great stereo separation.

Thanks, I loved how you guys were surprised hearing Kef Reference 1s thinking they were Cornwall 4s. Yeah Kef Reference 1 are that good and I have always been back and forth and this helps a lot! Forte in the beginning were good but Ref 1 are another level. 👌

Man your just pounding out the content! It's awesome you must be one of the only authorized dealers in the US for all three major Japanese brands - Luxman, Accuphase and Yamaha. I would love for you to compare the sound signature and build quality of the "all-in-one" two channel units in the $4k and under range for both two channel high-end audio and two channel TV audio. Like the Yamaha R-N2000A, Cambridge Audio Evo 150, Advance Paris A12.

Getting an A-S2200 next month to upgrade my CXA61, and I'm so stoked! Gonna pair it with my Forte IVs. Great video!

The meters on the Yamaha are also switchable between Peak and VU. The headphone jack has up to +12 dB gain which helps with planars, and it has a very good MM/MC phono preamp. The A-S3200 is a keeper, and I sure hope it holds up since I'm retired now and have it running every day, and most up to fourteen hours. Oh, and I'm glad to see you finally took the Advance Paris amp off of the top of the Yamaha. That was annoying the hell out of me, lol.

Definitely gonna be a fun one

I bought the Yamaha a-s1200 last year. Very happy with it . Build quality, sound, looks 👍System Technics 1500c tt, Audiolab 6000 cdt /m dac plus cd , Yamha as1200 amp , Imf Tsl 50 speakers. Its makes all music sound great

Hy guys! A few months ago I changed amplifiers, choosing this one that I consider (for the moment?!?) "definitive" for my personal needs and budget. My loudspeakers are currently B&W CM6 S2s: floorstanding loudspeakers (I know, a bit old-fashioned) that I think are the right type for my listening room (a living room of about 16/18 sqm). They were my first speakers (bought used) and I am now used to their sound and the "magic" that is created when I hear voices and mid-high frequencies (no doubt thanks to the decoupled tweeter). These speakers sounded very good with my previous amplifier, a Musical Fidelity M3si, but with the new Yamaha, although they definitely show more "authority" and body, on some tracks I use as a test, they reveal a "tinny" sound in the mid-high frequencies (for example, on some female voices or on some wind instruments). I was going to replace and upgrade the speakers anyway. But which ones? My budget was between 3 and 4 thousand euros. I had a clear idea about the amplifier and I consider myself satisfied with the purchase. But I don't know about the speakers. I think the type of stand is the right one for my environment (and the apartment building) and also for the fact that it is impossible for me to listen to music at high volume. In combination with the Yamaha, various sources recommend "warm sounding" speakers, and on paper I seem to have identified a model that might be right for me: the Opera Callas. On the other hand, a longtime audiophile tells me that if I like the B&W sound, I can safely turn to the new 7 Series. What would you recommend? Maybe the WHARFEDALE Elysian that you have tried? Thanks again.

yamaha was always very complete in functions and sounded always great ,this new one only as one flaw ,one or maybe none outputs for recording devices but that can be made conecting directelly some components who have two inputs

My main amp is a Yamaha, Im listening right now on my custom speakers, it's so good.

I liked Accuphase’s bass and ups and mids of Yamaha. To get both, I’d buy Yamaha and use those awesome tone controls to boost the bass a bit 😊. Yamaha sounded more like a clearer pane of glass and more liquid and Accuphase more warm. This Yamaha voicing confuses folks giving them a false impression that it is lean in the bass but that is just the way they naturally voice it. Just bumping the bass will offer more bass without changing the sound.

Many have come close in over 40 years but Yamaha always wins

The Yamaha A-S3200 is out of this World!

In Denmark you can buy the Elysian 1 incl. the stands for about $ 2150 and the Elysian 4 for around $ 5400. 2 and 3 are more expensive...

I have the Yamaha a-s2200 paired with a pair Mofi Sourcepoint 10. The Yamaha is the piece I’ve owned the longest. Using an Eversolo DMP-a6 into a Gustard R26 Dac. It is staying!!! Love the Yamaha sound!!! I Keep kicking out this content!!! Just Audio is top notch!!! I’d upgrade to the 3200, but I’d probably be served divorce papers if I buy anything else. lol.

I own a Yamaha A-S1200 feeding a pair of Dynaudio Special 40s, and it's the last integrated I'll ever buy! Yamaha is king to my ears! ❤️

Suprised the Elysian has the most bass out of all 3 even the forte! Atleast it sounded like that my end!

I wish I could afford the 3200 i love Yamaha i have the A-S801 with a Rega Apollo cd player, Tech-Neeks Sl-3350 turntable ,Sony minidisk and Wharfdale Diamond 240 speakers SVS Sub. And I am very happy with it...Thanks for another awesome video. 👌

Glad you did this Yamaha review , but Back in the Day when I was Buying and Trading Recievers every 6 months ( Or Less) !! Yamaha Lost out in the Competition Due to the "Brightness" Too much Fatigue on Long Listening sessions!!! I have not heard the Monster Yami but Almost all the reviews said the Same of Today's unit? Anyway Pioneer was my Ultimate Favorite and Marantz along with the Sansui. My Take on this one! Another Awesome Krazy Lenny and Tom Video, (maybe Tom doesn't get enough mention, but he Deserves a Pat on the Back now and again!!!! The Spendor 100 with the Advance A12 would be my Dream Season set up, but we will Have to Discuss the Package!!!@ Dave

Good amp I think. Yamaha always put a very capable power supply in their integrated amps given the power rating quoted. The styling is on point too. I have a few vintage yamaha pieces and some new hear eg the AS 1000. It's a very robust amp given its rating. They love putting big caps in the design where it counts. The C5000 pre and power amps sound great but they are sadly out of my reach. The C 5000 is the first preamp since 1997 when the CX 1 was made.. I have one and love it.

I like to see a head to head challenge against the Technique's monster integrated amp. Make it happen

recentelly i discovered that the cdm from B&W litle speakers were good with 70´s integrated amplifiers

Great channel guys ! Question, I purchased a RN 2000 a week ago, great sounding amp. Paired with klipsch RF800 . Listening at a decent level, volume was at 3 oclock position. Was surprized Was expecting 12 oclock. My old Denon pma 2000r would be shaking the walls at half volume. Possibly an issue with the amp? Also whats your thoughts on burn in time for yamaha. Thank you.

So you compared the AS3200 to the E-280 based on price comparison. But where do you think the AS3200 would fit based on performance level within the Accuphase line?. E-380, E-480? Can it hang with the E-4000 even?.

When you try the PR 200 from Akai or AM 2950...or AM 95...or AM m979???? Vintage staff not the new ones( Yamaha A 2000???? A 1000???)

I’d like to see and hear a comparison with the Yamaha and Luxman integrated amps. My opinion is that there will be less of a difference in sound than the Accuphase and Yamaha. Great video guys!👍

As usual I'm listening with earbuds, and normally I can't tell much of a difference with A/B comparisons. But I could with this one. I thought the Yamaha had a better sound, or should I say, for me the Yamaha sounded better. Great video.

How do you think those intergrated amps stack up with the rotel michi X5 S2? Roughly the same price point. Keep up the stellar work and rock on!!!!

Hey from Australia. Might be a silly question, but will the Yamaha 3200 power the Wharfdale Elysian 4’s or with speakers like them do you need to start getting power amps involved? I’m running a NAD 3050 with the Wharfdale Lintons, and just wondering the next step up? Understand Elysian 4s are a big step up, however does the amp step up need to be as big?

I've been a Yamaha fan since the A-1000 back in the mid 80's. It is interesting that the A-S3200 is rated at only 100W/ch @ 8 ohms at it's price point (I think that even the A-1000 was rated at 120W/ch @8). In looking at Yamaha's documentation, the A-S3200 definitely has an impressive build quality. I also found it interesting that the Spendors gave you more of a live sound over the Klipsch. That was somewhat surprising - I'm wondering if that would persist with different source material (e.g. rock, classical, etc.). Thanks for connecting to the Klpisch Cornwalls and comparing it against the Accuphase - Accuphase vs. Yamaha seems like a really interesting comparison. Just from what could be discerned from the KZfaq audio, the Accuphase seemed to have a fuller, richer sound. Very impressive. It would be interesting to hear it with a different source like we used to use the old stereo shops of the 70'2 and 80's like Steely Dan's Asia or Gaucho.

Compare the Yamaha 3200 to the Hint 6 Parasound please 😎

I'm kind of in the camp of a nice used McIntosh Integrated.

Yamaha all day ... since 1983 at least. Reliability, proven & tested ... your not a beta tester for them ... and their base 'sound signature', all add up for me. You can't go wrong, they're goof proof.

You never mentioned the sound of the Luxman compared to the Yamaha. Also what is soundstage compared on all three.

Would like to see expensive vs less expensive gear compared in technical detail.

I have always liked both the the Luxman and Accuphase fror their sound and quality. Not that the Yamaha sounds bad or their quality is sub par but I have always thought of them as a mass market brand. Whereas Luxman and Accuphase have always remained a high end audiophile brands. Don't want to sound snobby, but there is a certain sense of pride of ownership in those 2 brands that you just don't have with Yamaha.

TBH, the accuphase sounds a-ma-zing on those kefs! The Yamaha sounds thin on the kefs. But... The Yamaha is way more neutral. But my opinion is not biased because I'm a accuphase fanboy

I have a 2200 in my bedroom with some vintage JBL l96 and Gustard r26 dac. I also have vintage Marantz separates in my living room witth l100 classics and a class A Vincent with Forte's. Thing about Yamaha is it has balanced inputs to balanced outputs in my Dac and is definitly feels and looks the most high end of all my amps with very satisfying controls, clicks and relays. Its great for voices and the fantastic midrange and bass of the vintage JBLs. So clear that loudness isn't needed, very lively and sounds more powerful than 90 watts. The good phono stage makes it practical too. Tone contols work well but don"t change basic character maybe is a liitle analytical but probably the most neutral of all my amps. As mentioned, setting tone controls in middle takes them completely out of the circuite which is nice for purists but I'm a sound contouring kind of guy which is why I also like vintage. If Yamaha had mid control like my Marantz it would be the perfect modern vintage amp with best of both worlds!

✅️... Yamaha.... 🍺👍🔊🔈.... !

The e280 sounds better to me based on the demo.

Define ‘Bigger space’.

Isn't this the guy from Just Audio, is he moonlighting?

Output meters are SO useless. If I Must have them, I prefer that they indicate watts.

7999 as in $7,990.00???

Did you guys realise your video is 31 min long but we had to forward it to the 22nd min before there was any music? Love you guys but, really, we have ears. We prefer the music to do its own talking. LOL IMO, the A3200 isn't a hifi kit. Next.

i wish Yamaha made power amplifiers

Horrible music test warning

0:45 ALL I CAN SEE IS YOUR BEARD HAIR STICKING OUT ON YOUR RIGHT SIDE CHEEK

Yamaha is one of if not the best on the market
