I had a G8000 that was a fun match to some Pioneer 99As, but when
matched to any type of difficult load would go into protection if driven hard. The Yamaha A-S2000 is a more neutral & powerful amp. It will more
easily run more modern speaker loads, cables, ect... I ran an Empire tt 598 into the Sansui with good results & only moved on when tiring of the suspended table, & now match a VPI Traveler to the Yamaha. Both can provide hrs. of enjoyment. The Yamaha is an exceptional value.....
