So I recently recapped my first reciever(a HK590i) and when I told my uncle he mentioned having the above Yamaha components. He said he paid a pretty penny so he wants me to pay $150 for it.
He hasn't used it in years and doesn't know the condition very well(a friend sold it to him).
What's Likely to be busted? Are the caps expensive and numerous? I read a few stories of repairs and I heard this unit(m-4) can be expensive to work on. I'm really short on cash so even $150 is pushing it.
Lastly, how's the SQ? I heard it's amazing but would it put my recapped Harman kardon 590i to shame or merely sound different? I'm pretty happy with my vintage setup as is but the reviews are simply amazing.
