Hi,
A member of audiokarma and a big Sansui fan suggested I post here for input.
Please provide some input.
I have a NM condition Sansui au-X701.
And, I'm about to change speakers so I'm evaluating options.
Yes, I agree, that AT THE LEAST, this is a great unit with outstanding build quality. But, How good is good? How good is a stock Sansui X701 versus any other great USED amplifier costing $500+ ?
I'd love to know if any of you have compared this model OR a similar model to more "modern" amps or integrated amplifiers. I mean, it's one thing to say they sound great, but "great compared to what?" Compared to which amps? What were the results of the comparison?
I'll post pix if there's interest in seeing them.
THANK YOU everyone for your input!
