    HELP Sansui MS880 Reviews and opinions please!!

    I recently got an offer for a Sansui MS880 here in my city. I'm thinking about buying it, since I really enjoy listening to old cassetes and CDs but I have no clue about how good this equipment may be. It's speakers are Sansui too. I would appreciate it a lot if someone could tell me what they...

    Looking for some Altec A7 VOTT speaker system suggestions

    My first post. Looking for some Altec speaker system suggestions. I have an odd mix of Altec's without a good plan yet … back in the early 1980’s I first fell in love with the sound of Altec VOTT A7’s that I used in a 1920’s era 2,500 seat auditorium. I bought my first pair of vintage A7’s from...

    Sansui CA-3000

    Looking for your opinions on the mighty SANSUI CA-3000 control amplifier. Who has experience with this one? How good is it in comparison to "the best" vintage preamps out there? If compared to the likes of Sony, Threshold, Yamaha, ML... Of course, it comes down to personal taste. But I need...

    Your FAVORITE carts?

    Hello all, Asking for purely subjective thoughts here, what are your favorite carts and why? They don't have to have the greatest specs or anything, I'm just curious what people love and why? What deck do you love it on? Are there other carts you love on other decks? While I think this is...

    Marantz 2270 Opinions

    Hey everyone, There is a guy selling a 2270 for $500 locally. Since I've gotten into audio, I've wanted to get a Marantz because they are beautiful and I've listened to them and love their low end. I don't know anything about the reciever, I am assuming it is in working unrestored condition, I...

    The Realistic 42-2109, The Licorice Component

    So whenever this little phono stage comes up, at least one person acts as if it's the most wonderful lover they ever knew and another as if it killed the most wonderful lover they ever knew. I know how I feel about it, but I want other views with some amount of back-up. Just like the candy...

    The Technics 1200 Fascination?

    This is a recurring issue that I have, I keep wanting to re-own a technics sl1200 mk2, preferably in black. This is not the first time that I have had this issue but it's something I want to be talked out of, or maybe diagnosed and cured of? So I am looking for all the good reasons why the 1200...

    Marantz 2220B vs Yamaha CA-600

    hello everyone! Would you trade a perfect condition Yamaha ca-600 for a marantz 2220b that is cosmetically perfect and working but there is no sound out of one channel??? Thoughts would be greatly appreciated!! Thanks Jay Yes I could most likely fix the marantz myself.

    Sony PS-11 or Dual CS-1245??

    People of AK, I bestow upon you another question of intrigue! So after struggling to fix my Dad's old Denon DP-51f and getting quotes upwards of 400$ to fix, I decided to go ahead and buy some vintage Turntables, as a replacement. Picked up a CS-1245 for 60$ - Automatic function isn't working...

    Adcom GFA-545: Pedestrian or 'WOW!!"

    I have been thinking recently about some of the components I had, and then disposed of (or were disposed of for me), and I have to say that the Nelson Pass designed Adcom GFA-545 was just really sweet. That, in retrospect it was probably foolish to get rid of it. What made me think of it was...

    Pioneer SX-9930

    I aquired a mint Pioneer SX-9930 for free a while back and had it serviced. It works really well and sounds amazing! I was told by multiple people that it is a very rare receiver (being a European version of the SX-939) in the US. Do you guys have any thoughts on it? I'll try to include some...
