Out of interest - what are the stands? I've not yet found a set with a top plate small enough for my NS1000MMs!
At what point do I consider having this amp rebuilt or upgraded? I also have what appears to be a ground wire unattached inside! I’ve been here a short time and do know that avionic is the guru with these Yamahas. ThanksNot 100% sure its C554. But it is one within that circuitry. Really no big deal and shouldn't have anything to do with amplifier operation.
Yesterday, if it were mine, but it all depends on how much you like your amp?what point do I consider having this amp rebuilt or upgraded?

that looks nOEMYour ground wire is disconnected.
it looks like someone atempted to replace the RCAs or repair them. The wireing looks....well, not as it should. Additionally, the ground wire is off the chasis. This is not the neutral, just the ground wire. You can re-attach it with any of the chassis screws, but I would revisit the wireing first.I’m assuming the ground wire should have a nut and a washer and connect to the stud that goes out of the back? Don’t see any loose parts floating around. I’ve never grounded an amp before, I’ve only had intergrats and never worried about it, with this amp I want it right.
The solder blobs on the back are factory/OEM. The RCA wireing and the small board wrapped in what appears to be black electrical tape, is not OEMAnd here I thought the amp was untouched but I can see some goofy solder connections, thought it was done factory.
Suggest starting a new thread in the Yamaha forum for any issues with your MX.And here I thought the amp was untouched but I can see some goofy solder connections, thought it was done factory.
The living room is finally stable and not messing with it anymore.

It's Linear arm Pioneer PL-L1000What brand of turntable is that. The tone arm seems a bit too close to the platter.
