    Hi folks, I have acquired a nice Sansui 210 that has one channel with a consistent humm but with no actual signal. Hum is unaffected by volume. Other channel working fine, no hum. Any suggestions as to where to begin? Previous owner said there was an audible pop of some kind leading to its...

    AU-555A adjustment

    Hello, In 2013 I bought a Sansui AU-555A. Since then it had been working fine, at least for my expectations, except for the phono but I did not use it. A few months ago, after reading, I don't remember where, that after 50 years an amplifier with original electrolytic capacitors (EC) should be...

    Can someone help me identify these speakers? Thank you!

    I need help identifying these speakers, they were on my grandpas basement since a long time ago, they work fantastically well but I don’t know the make or what kind of speakers these are. Also, if you have any suggestions for the two speakers missing on them would be much help. Thanks btw! Daniel.

    I have searched and downloaded the available PDFs of these two manuals. I even purchased an excellent copy from a Bay seller. However, none include pages 7-10. If anyone has these 4 pages or knows of a source for the whole thing, please lmk. Thanks in advance!

    AR-XA RCA wiring

    I've had my XA for a very long time, and it runs great. I recently made a large batch of custom Mogami interconnects for my stuff at home. As it turns out, I have some cable left. My AR-XA still has the original RCA cables, so I thought that I'd make a custom set to replace it. I don't want...

    Sansui AU-101 - decision to look for vintage

    Hi All. New in forum but old in audio and relatively old in age. Being an owner of few amps/systems mainly "modern" I started to look for vintage experiment.

    Sansui 9090 and fuses

    I’ve had my 9090 for a long time - and I had a terrific AK member CDfixer restore and upgrade mine (RIP CDfixer, he was a true gent and I’m very lucky to have met him). One thing that I’ve noted is that my unit has the updated fuses (pic shows two 10a fuses). A few questions: should I change...

Currently there’s a 5000a, 771 and 7070 on gumtree all for around the AU$600-700 mark. There is a lovely...

    Sansui AU-717 restoration - no sound and it's FILTHY!

    This is a recent project I started. I've done quite a few AU-717s, but I wanted to take a different approach this time. Starting with the power supply, I de-soldered all of the wires to allow me to easily remove the board to work on it. I (almost) completely disassembled the unit in order to...

    Sansui 7070 no power, please help

    Hi, long time lurker, first time poster here. I’ve had a Sansui 7070 for about 7 years, with it hooked up to a laptop + projector as part of our family home theatre setup.

    Sansui P-D31 (direct drive, servo) plays slow, any way to fix?

    I scored a Sansui P-D31 turntable at Goodwill for 12 bucks. It’s definitely a weird one! All of the controls work beautifully, spins great, consistent speed… however, the speed for both 33 and 45 is consistently slow, by about a second each. I read through the manual and there doesn’t appear to...

    Hey, I have a squawker from the Sansui SP1500 speakers, S2002A. A buyer is replacing one that has the same model number and from the same speaker, but his is rated at 16 ohms, the one I have is rated at 12 ohms. He wants to know if this difference is important. Damned if I know. I do see that...

    We're all in agreement that recapping is good, right? AU-D11

    So I've been thinking of doing a a recap for my AU-D11, it sounds amazing but is full of black flags and has an electrical smell (for other D11 owners: is that normal? My D9 produces no smell whatsoever). Anyways as the date of parting with the amp approaches I've found myself having second...
