    Sansui 331 parts

    Just picked up a sansui 331 and it works great after some deoxit. It’s missing a screw and bushing that hold the wood cover on. Any ideas where to find something like this? I’ve attached some pictures of what I’m describing. Thanks!! BBF611CF-23D5-40CB-882E-68BDE3EEA77A by Rodmcrick posted Jan...

    Help with Sansui AU-X711 which has gone into protection mode after service

    I had given my Sansui AUX-711 for servicing to a techie in Brisbane. Unfortunately after months of repairs which included re soldering, replacement of transistors and resistors, the amp has gone into protection mode. I don't blame the tech guy because he kept me informed every stage and charged...

    Sansui CA-2000 + Sansui BA-100

    Hello. My first post here. I'm curious as to if I can connect a CA-2000 preamp to a BA-100 (30w x 30w) power amp and have good results. I know that the compliment to the preamp is the BA-2000. I have a few other Sansui's that I can toy with (au-717, 7070 and a 4000) but want to know if there...

    Pioneer TX-9800 vs sansui tunners

    Hi to all here, I have a question for you. I am in searching of a very good tunner: I found locally an Pioneer TX-9800 at 350 euro, quite expensive, but i can afford it. I am a fan of Sansui tunners and amplifiers and i have quite a few (almost) TOTL sansui but maybe it is worth to try...

    Questions on recapping Sansui speakers SP-2000 and Sp-2500

    I have a pair of Sansui SP-2000 and 2500’s that I want to recap. The capacitors are bipolar axial on the 2000 and nonpolar axial on the 2500 would polarized axial caps of the same value work or no? what would be a good replacement for these?

    Tracking down elusive SP-300 drivers

    I just picked up a pair of massive Sansui SP-300 locally. A little rough shape, but it looks like one of the woofers had the dust cover cut open (!?!?). Haven't hooked it up to a multimeter yet, or to an amp. Pushing in gently on the cone feels scratchy, so I'm assuming it was over-extended or...

    Sansui AU-G77X distortion and can't bias properly.

    Alright Sansui experts, I have an AU-G77X amp that sounds horrible. Very distorted and low volume until you move the volume knob up past about 9 to 10 o'clock upon which the sound seems to smooth out some but the distortion doesn't go away entirely. If the volume knob is left alone the sound...

    Voltage on the chassis of an AU-919

    I am calling out to anyone that can help me on this one as I am stumped. I've had this amp for roughly 8 years now and is still considered my favorite piece thus far. The amp was serviced myself, full recap job, adjustments, cleaning, etc. After 8 years, the amp has suddenly developped voltage...

    Sansui AU-999 recap and mod journey

    I had acquired this fine 999, which ultimately led me here to this forum for research, and it wasn’t before long that I became a Sansui fan. I always wanted to learn more about electronics and stereo repair, and it is quite serendipitous how this all happened. Not to long after that, I got a...

    Volume pot cleaning guide for AU-717

    This week I was wrapping up an AU-717 overhaul and noticed the volume pot was noisy around the 9 o'clock region. My first attempt and fixing it was to turn off the amp and work the pot back and forth through the full range a couple dozen times. This didn't help so I knew I needed to do something...

    New FM tuner boards for Sansui 5000 series

    I just recently acquired a Sansui 5500 receiver and much to my dismay the FM tuning started to go bad. The signal level and tuning meters indicate that it’s getting a strong FM signal, it’s just that there is no FM sound. At first I thought that the problem was the FM mute button, but I just...

    Bogen BR-360 - A curious GW find

    Picked this unit up last night for $15.75 at the Goodwill. It was a diamond in the rough, covered with 50 years’ worth of fingerprints, grime and dust. I could tell that it was in decent shape, It powered up, with dial lights, and it was heavy and mega solid so I bought it. First thoughts...

    Hey everyone. My issue, and I have had this happen twice now, is a sansui 661 (or 771) the bias sits at 29 to 31 and doesn't move past that up or down. If I turn the trim pot, it'll go up or down 1 mv. Same behavior both channels. The correct number is 19mv and I cannot get close to that. The...
