    Abused Sansui 7070 / service manual short-comings

    I have a 7070 (non-db) imported from Portugal. The owner reset the transformer to "100V" instead of 120V. He ran it that way until it stopped working, He has sent it to me in hopes of resurrecting it. As one might imagine, it has multiple issues. To sort it all out, I could use the voltage...

    First time Sansui receiver options

    7070 popping when relay closes

    Hey all, so I have what seems to be a simple issue, or so I thought it was... I have a 7070 here that makes a fairly loud pop when the relay closes, what I noticed was that if I disconnect the normally closed pins which have 12 or so V from the muting circuit the pop goes away, the muting...

    Hi. I have in my collection Sansui 7070 and Sansui AU-70. Recently there is a Sony TA-1030 for sale, which is two hours drive away from my place (I am in a smaller town).

    Sansui 7070 Weak Left Channel & the Dolby NR Button

Random fiddling led me to discover that if I press the "Dolby NR / 4 Channel Adapter" button (which will...

    Sansui 7070 Colors of the Meters

    My Sansui 7070 was purchased used from a few years back. I didn't really take note of the colors of the meters, they are green (for the radios) and blue/purple (VU). But I saw a few photos of the x0x0 series from the web, and noticed that none looked like mine. May I know are these likely to...

    Sansui 7070 + CD Player?

    I was gifted an older Sansui receiver that works as a radio, but I'd like to connect a CD changer which wasn't a common thing in 1976 when the receiver was made. What else do I need? I tried using the available ports on the back that are labeled for other things but I'm pretty sure I can't...
