Yamaha RX-300
Little is documented about the Yamaha RX-300. What the record shows comes almost entirely from one period advertisement. An Audio (December 1990, p.163) blow-out sale listed the RX-300 at a dealer price of $99, with a note that its original price had been $300. This suggests it was a receiver sold around 1990, intended as a budget or mid-fi offering within Yamaha's RX series, which included models like the RX-1100U and RX-202.
Beyond that listing, no specifications - power output, dimensions, or inputs - have surfaced in any known review or service literature. It likely shared the clean, understated industrial design common to Yamaha's late-1980s/early-1990s receivers, but that is an assumption based on family resemblance, not a documented fact.
Surviving information on this model is thin. If you own an RX-300 and can confirm its features or performance, the archive would welcome the details.
