    Sansui 2000 Receiver Turntable Connection Ground

    I was given a Sansui 2000 receiver that’s currently being repaired. I noticed that the ground terminal is on the opposite side of the back panel from the RCA jacks. The manual was no help in determining where to connect the turntable ground wire. Can someone help/explain?

    Are DACs Worth looking into?

    Hi. I am new to the audio world, and I have some vintage Sansui's and a digital amp. I was wondering DAC's are worth looking into for better sound quality or should I stick with what I have? (which is actually pretty good)
