@helomech Yamaha definitely has its following. Have you heard Rotel RA-1570 or older Rotel RX-1052? Both sounded great with B&W 704s that are laying around, but made the MA Gold 200s sound too clinical.
Perhaps overgeneralizing but the somewhat similar genealogy with Yamaha makes me wonder...and speaking of Japan, ATC19s are also a tempting offering.
