Congrats, Looks real nice! I love the looks of the Sansui but have not heard one. I think you had a Marantz 20, which I do have. I have been thinking of getting a Sansui 9900, can you tell me how the Sansui compares to the Marantz? Thanks.

hi onmemug thanks for the comments.you are correct i did have a marantz 20 but i sold it to a friend.one channel was out when i got it so i gave the headache to him:D .as for a comparison to the tu 9900 i couldnt do one for the obvious reason stated above.i also cant do one with the 717 and the 9900becuause my tu9900 needs an alignment:tears: i can tell you though that for alot less money than the tu 9900 would cost you pick up a tu 717.it's quiet ,sensitive and sounds great.fwiw i will be eventually getting the marantz 20 back from the guy i sold to to all fixed and aligned:)

Thanks Chris. That was too bad about the 20 but I think you will be real happy with it when you get it back. Let me know. Thanks for the tip on the 717.
