Difference between Yamaha AX-1090 Vs Yamaha AX-1070

[M Code]

Here U go..
The difference is that the 1070 used speaker output 5-way binding posts which were not certified by CE...
As one could easily plug a Euro AC plug into.. The 1090 used a closed type binding post...
Note that later on CE accepted the 1070 open type binding posts but the factory had to insert small plugs into the banana jack to block that opening but these could be popped out later...

Just my $0.02...

omg so the only difference is just the binding post.. ? And that is enough to change the name of a product and consider it new?
Btw how did u get this rare knowledge ?
ps: why would anyone plug a Euro AC into i it?

CE is the Euro version of UL, hanging the model # was part of the changeover agreed upon with CE

CE is the Euro equivalent of UL/CSA, changing the model # was part of their negotiated solution.

Btw how did u get this rare knowledge ?

We have been doing product development/evaluation/consulting with Yamaha Japan for many years.

ps: why would anyone plug a Euro AC into i it?

Most wouldn't but this posed a liability risk to Yamaha and the user...

The A-1000 was a great amplifier in its day..
A major feature it has is the capability to switch amplifier design from a Class A-B to Class A..
But still my personal preference would be the 1090...
