Description:

The Yamaha models of the Natural Sound series, edition 1977 to 1982, belong to the most appreciated and sought-after HiFi equipment overall.
It is not surprising that the current generation of Yamaha HiFi returns to this design.

In addition to the famous and popular CA amplifiers and CT tuners, Yamaha has also produced a number of cassette decks since 1977 that are certainly worth mentioning.
One of them is the TC-920 introduced in 1980.
Seamlessly fitting into the iconic seventies design of the Natural Sound series, this is the perfect unit to complete any CA / CT set.
