Well, I guess it was only a matter of time. I've always likes Sansui, my uncle used to have agreat rig when I was younger. Was scoping eBay recently and came across a 5050 being sold by a fine gentleman in Canada, figured I'd take a chance.

NOW I KNOW WHAT ALL THE FUSS IS ABOUT!

Currently hooked up to a Marantz TT4000, and our vintage Castle Tynes. Customers love the vintage sound.

And, fun factor is WAY off the scale. :D
 
Yahoo! A Sansui salesperson.

As I said in the other thread, I'm about to become a S'poppa for the 2nd time (I hope) in a few days.

:D
 
nice,Omer,those speaks don't look too shabby either.
Note to self: gotta visit Omer, can't believe he worked down the street from me when I lived in Ottawa.

Natural Progression

Isn't this what life is all about.

Young man grows up, starts a family, starts a career and then he becomes complete - a Solid State Sansui. :D

Be careful omer how you play that 5050 customers will begin demanding vintage receivers.;)

Hey Macc,wouldn't that be funny.
Customer: No Mr.Humayun I want a 5050,not that Jolida hybrid.

Omer: ok let me check EBay

That's probably what going to happen.....

Paul, congrats on the new arrival!

Al, the speaks are Castle Tynes (1984) sitting on OZ stands. The Castles have been refinished in maple with a hand rubbed finish,work done by the same people who will be building the cabinets for Unity speakers.

Macc, yep, you pegged 'er. Still more involving listening to the Cary set-up, but hey, a $20k system is supposed to sound good. ;)
 
I was playing Heatwave, track one from Holly Cole/Shade yesterday after some customers left. It was downright spooky how real it was.

Shake 'n bake night willbe when you're in town! :bigok:
 
"please help me stop"

Easy. Just send everything Sansui that you buy to me. Pretty soon , you will stop! :p:

hope bigmacc doesn't mind me chiming in here!


"Heatwave" the ones that did Always and Forever? I rate that highly as far as mushy love songs go.

cheers

I'm starting to hanker after a Sansui TT like the one I got from a friend many years ago. Used to use it with my bedroom SX-450 in my mid teen years. About wore Weather Report's "Heavy Weather" out on that TT.... :)

I'm officially a Sansui owner now...the 6060 is staying. When my wife saw me playing my P-bass through its mic input along with Bob Dylan while lying on the bed, she insisted that I keep it, so it's the bedroom amp now. Gonna order some new vinyl from PE for her...she's a purty little tank of a receiver. I bet the dark cherry they have would look schweeeet. :D

TP, enjoying his first Sansui Rx
