Yamaha A-1000 Integrated Amplifier question

67.2.209.53

Has anyone ever seen or listened to one of these? It seems they were Yamaha's totl integrated in 1985. I have a chance to buy one, but need to come up with an offer. Here are some of the specs I found from an ebay description.....any information on sound quality/reliability would be helpfull.

120 watts per channel into 8 ohms and over 200 watts per channel into 4 ohms. Rated Maximum distortion is .005 im and .003 thd. Up to full power from 20hz to 20khz. It has two phono inputs, one for a moving coil type cartridge and the other for a moving magnet or a second moving coil type. Phono input has selectable input impedance and capacitance loading. Phono signal to noise is 94 db. Has inputs for two phono, two aux, dat, tuner, tape 1 and tape 2. Variable loudness and tone control bypass. The amp is switchable to auto pure class A operation at lower power levels then auto-switches to class ab at higher levels. Original price new in 1985 was $1000
