Hello,
I have a Yamaha RX2095/DSP-A2 receiver. It is a fairly old model, but really exceptional in quality. I have been using it for several years off and on. Five years ago, I moved out of the country and left my Yamaha receiver for long term storage. When I get back in 3 years or so, I wish to continue using the receiver again.
To my concern, I heard somewhere that long term storage can degrade the amplifier (certain components due to oxidation and loss of electrons). Does anyone know this? It would be such a waste if I came home and my piece of equipment has degenerated. Any ideas on this?
The receiver has been stored in its own box, wrapped in plastic sheet, in a dark and relatively cool closet.
Thanks,
Dirk
