Show Me Your Sansui!

Here's my 500a. I had it connected to my Salk Song Towers for most of the day today. It sounds just like the one I bought as an 18yo in 1965 in Yokuska Japan at the Naval Exchange. I should never have sold it. Very clean sound from the lowest to the highest notes. This pic was taken a few years ago during a restore by an AK member. I bought it a couple of weeks ago. Cosmetics are decent and the sound is way more than decent! Next purchase will be a pair of AR2ax speakers - that will approximate the setup I had in the mid-late 60's. But I'm not going looking for the Garrard tt I had. That was a POS. The Marantz works just fine.

 
Knucklehead, you are killing me here...

Your Sansui looks EXACTLY like the 3000 I had back in the '70's...bought it off a friend who had bought it in Vietnam while stationed there. To this day
I regret that I sold it...man, did she drive my (new at the time) Bose 901's! (still have those ;))
 
It's been years since I posted here. I still got my AU-719 and SR-838, but now coupled with Yamaha NS-200M speakers. Today I hit some sort of a grail for myself, a complete GX-5II rack (my second one) with a full setup including AU and TU-919, LM-330's and some curiosities like Audio Program Timer AT-15L, D-550M tape deck, RA-900 Reverb Amplifier and last but not least, a sweet SE-7 EQ! For being here in Norway i paid a pretty small sum for the whole package, around 500 USD! :)
