Yamaha M5000/C5000 Pre / Power Combination 100watt rms as new condition will not separate Condition: As New / Mint Payment Method: Cash eft Region/State: (QLD) Queensland/Australia By Glendo24 3 Comments AUD $10,000 Date: October 18, 2025Oct 18
Fair ask, leaning good value if this is the pair at A$10,000: new Australian pricing was about A$13,999 for the C-5000 and A$12,999 for the M-5000, so A$10,000 for both is meaningfully under replacement cost and sits in attractive used territory rather than ambitious land.
What makes it worth chasing is the sound and build: Yamaha’s 5000-series is a serious, fully balanced analogue line with excellent phono capability in the preamp and a powerful, controlled 100W/200W output stage in the amp. The big upside is getting a flagship-style, all-analog combo in like-new shape; just confirm the original boxes, remote, and any setup accessories are present, since at this level completeness matters for resale and peace of mind.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Yamaha stands as one of the world's most storied audio manufacturers, with roots extending far beyond consumer electronics. Founded in 1887 by Torakusu Yamaha in Hamamatsu, Japan, the company began as a reed organ manufacturer before expanding into pianos and eventually becoming a comprehensive musical instrument maker. This deep heritage in acoustics and materials science would prove foundational to its later audio ventures. The company operated under its original name, Nippon Gakki Co., Ltd., until 1987, when it was renamed Yamaha Corporation in honor of its centennial.
Yamaha's entry into high-fidelity audio proved transformative for the industry itself. In 1954, the company released the Yamaha Hi-Fi Player, widely recognized as the world's first audio component to bear the "Hi-Fi" designation in its name. The company subsequently built a comprehensive product portfolio spanning amplifiers—beginning with the acclaimed A-100 in 1960—speakers, turntables, and digital audio equipment. The NS-1000 speakers, introduced in 1974 with beryllium drivers, became iconic reference monitors. Yamaha also pioneered digital audio technology, shipping the world's first CD recorder in 1988.
Today, Yamaha occupies a distinctive position as a mid-to-high-end generalist rather than a niche specialist. The brand commands respect among both casual listeners and serious audiophiles, balancing accessibility with genuine engineering credibility. Its reputation rests on six decades of consistent innovation, proven reliability, and the unique advantage of applying musical instrument expertise to audio reproduction. Vintage Yamaha components remain highly sought by collectors, while current products maintain the brand's tradition of delivering performance and durability across multiple price tiers.
