About 5 years ago I bought a 551 whose sound reminded me of my first Sansui, a simple A40 that my mother bought in 1981 and we had it at home.
Since that day I have been looking for the best sound (or the closest to how I felt the music with 14 years), I have gone through very good series (555,555A, 777,999, G series and others) thinking that the older Sansui machines offered a Better sound ..... until I got an alpha.
It is true that almost all Sansui sounds very good, it is not true that older ones sound better than newer ones.
The Alpha sound strongly, in great detail, perfect.
This afternoon I compared the X701, the X711 and the 607DR. I like them all, but they do not sound the same.
The X701 has the typical detail of the Alpha, very balanced, but I miss some more strength in the bass. The X711 improves in this aspect, and in general is splendid in everything, it follows closely the 607DR, which I like most of the three, more detail, more space, very powerful bass. All three, in my opinion, have excellent sounds. I usually listen to the music at low volume (at 9 o'clock on the clock). In the Alpha you hear every instrument, the air of the clarinet, the breath of the singer, everything is details, it is incredible. This detail is what I was looking for and is in the Alpha series. Here are some pictures inside and outside..
Are you agree?
