2017 Sansui Serial Number Database

Yes I see that but is there only one serial number tag or does it have two, one with the conventional serial number and one with the X prefix.

I ran the report today and had a few conflicts. It's likely these have been reported correctly but I need to double check before deleting the other serial number.
@Monicker1 AU-6600,836020159,Canuckaudiomart.com Conflicts with an AU-1100 already in the database
@karik57 AU-9900,215100041,dba.dk Conflicts with an AU-2000 CA-2000,238020068,audio-markt.de Conflicts with a TU-777

I looked for them on line but couldn't find them. I'd appreciate it if you could take a look for them.

Thanks,

Hi Pete

Re AU-6600,836020159,CanuckAudioMart.com

Mine might take some time to find. Disregard it as I have sent it. I think it was one of later finds. I will give you a screen shot when I find it.

Lately I have been looking at long outdated ads which have been archived in the cloud so that one may be several years old. It might have been a combo with a tuner sold with it. There is one 6600 on CAM now but the serial number sticker is not even in the pictures. This will of course mean my September offerings will contain a stack of AU-6600s new to your list as I have already found a few. As the other harvesters have said some numbers are a devil to read. And there is often a cord hanging over them that can knock out two digits. No point guessing.


Edit: Found it ... two hours later, That was hard. It was difficult because it was a combo.

It was listed on US AudioMart by a Canadian Seller in Barrie Ontario. Asking $85 ($65US) for both a TU-5900 and AU-6600 yes I am staggered, because one or other weren't working so good. They look to be in good shape as well. Of course they were quickly snapped up.

Was the AU-1100 with same serial number from a member's private collection or was it a harvest? And are these database entries date listed?

AU-9900 is in the picture. Advertisement for CA-2000 had already ended. There was one CA-2000 for sale but no picture of the rear panel. It can be the same unit relisted or another one. You can simply ignore it (or the other one already in the database, if you wish).

Is it possible that both serial numbers TU-777,238020068 and CA-2000,238020068 are correct?
TU-777 is from February 1968 and CA-2000 from February 1978.
Production line 23 was in use in both decades.
Just wondering.
 
Pete
Vast majority of AU-2000 units come from production line 83, one unit from 82, one from 50 and two from 01. And the latest units are from April 1974. It is very unlikely that one unit would have been manufactured in October 1975 in production line 21. So probably AU-2000,215100041 is incorrect and does not share the same serial number with AU-9900.

AU-20000, not au-2000

Yes. These two units' time span were a decade apart.

That means the number for the AU 20000 in question is in a plausible range in timing and product line.

I agree. Both AU-9900 and AU-20000 are from the same decade. That serial number (215100041) clearly belongs to AU-9900 and therefore it's obvious that AU-20000 has an incorrect serial number in the database.
 

Sansui AU-20000 meter bulbs

hello, please let me know if this monster takes fuse lamps, regular light bulbs, or what. Besides if these bulbs needs green covers or they are originally green coloured. At last how many they are for each vu-meter and where can I buy them ? Thanks and greetings from Italy Gaetano

(Picking up an old thread)

Was this the first mention of an AU-20000 on this website? A guy doing work on an AU-20000. This was not a harvested number.

"Hello all, newbie here,(well, I've been a member for 10 years or so) the thing is NOW i'm knee deep in a au-20k ( 215100041) rebuild." (joestcyr)

The 881 I'm not 100% sure. Feel free to discard:

Same with this AU-555A (820106265):
AU-555A.jpg

I checked this against my own database (1593 entries) and there were no duplicates. None! That doesn't happen too often. Did spot a few duplicates that I duly skipped while harvesting.
