    Sansui 2000A repair

    A friend brought me his Sansui that had a bad left channel. Bad meaning low volume and distortion. I traced this down to a bad capacitor in the power amp. It was a simple electrolytic coupling capacitor with a value of 1 uf 100V. I did not have this size so I used a 10 uf 100V that worked fine...

    Sansui 2000a Dead left channel

    Hello everyone, I want to first say how helpful this forum has been for my getting started in a restoration of an old unit. I recently recapped the big power caps and all the electrolytics on the power amp card. Used the unit for awhile and started noticing weak bass in the left channel which...

    Sansui 2000A Repairs

    I recently purchased a Sansui 2000A at auction which didn't power up. I cleaned up cosmetically, sprayed deoxit in the pots and other moving parts, vacuumed out pet hair, and put in new fuses. It powers on, has a nice tuner, plays LPs well, and seems to generally be in good working condition...

    Speaker A+B Clarification

    Picked up a pair of Wharfedale W60d's this weekend in pretty much mint condition. Hooked them up to my Sansui 2000A to do an A/B comparison with my DLK Model 3s. I didn't really have any expectation going in, but was almost disappointed when the Wharfs didn't seem to sound as good as the DLKs...

    No right channel- Sansui 2000a replaced transistors on pre amp and driver and

    Hello. I replaced transistors on my Sansui 2000a F-1222-1 tone/pre amp and F1180 driver board with KSC1845. Went OK. My soldering skills are not great. Both left and right channels working fine prior, but with audible noise-I had read several things about the transistors, so I went for it...

    Sansui 2000a F-1180 - Two unpopulated Capacitors and Trimmer Question

    Good evening, I was rebuilding the driver.amp board (F1180) on my Sansui 2000a and I noticed that C810 and C820 were never populated. No solder old or new in back and just empty holes. See Yellow Circles. The service manual says these are a ceramic 68pf/50v capacitor. 1) Should I...

    Sansui 2000a Service Bulletin Clarification.

    Complete noob here so excuse my ignorance if this is obvious to others. I had initially posted this here the "Exclusively Sansui" section, but perhaps this forum is a better fit. I've replaced the faulty transisters in my 2000a and it got rid of the popcorn static. It still has a slight hum or...

    Pop, then fading buzz in left speaker when turning off power

    I've searched the site and found similar problems but not quite like mine. When I turn the receiver off I get a pop from the left speaker and then a slowly fading buzz from both speakers. I also get a pop at power on, but much weaker than power off. I just started using this receiver. After I...

    Building a Wood Case for Sansui 2000A

    Hello, This is my first post on AK! I am giving away my Sansui 2000A to a friend and I am wondering if anyone has built a case for a 2000A. This was my first unit and I loved it so much, it's time that it goes to someone else. It looks really good as is, but I think the wood would make it a...
