2017 Sansui Serial Number Database

I hoped there is an easier "darkening" filter to run over such a ruined picture to bring the few visible pixels more upfront in contrast to the rest. Will check when I have time. In the future I will add numbers from kleinanzeigen in this thread, as I have missed them in the harvest reports from the pro-harvesteres here :)

PE9ZZ: Do you use " " quotations around serial numbers you are uncertain of? I think that is a good idea.

No, this is just a remnant of LibreOffice Calc that I use to prevent duplicate submissions. If a serial starts with a zero it will drop it as it treats the string as a number. Highly annoying.
 
Here is my report for late February. There are about 83 items here.
I have not fully checked for numbers already in the database but I am sure most of these are new.

Wow, postings this month have picked up.

@Monicker1, don't worry about SNs already in the database. Duplicates get filtered out in the upload process. "881,824070001,kijiji.ca, possibly the first one ever made" Yes indeed. We have 88 881s on file the earliest was built in August '74. This one was the first unit built on line 82 in July '74. It's a good bet it was the first production 881.

I also have a question on this one. 500,75090686,reverb.com #45582928 2022, What is the significance of the extra numbers?

@peterott: "I haven't followed the discussion what of the newer plastic stuff can be added and what not. I collected all, also for these plastic compact HiFi systems and stuff..."

I wish there was an easy to identify cut off point for this stuff. The overall purpose of the database is for collectors to better understand their collection. With that in mind, it comes down to value. Would some one go out of their way to buy it and showcase it.

In the last days of Japanese owned Sansui, they were pumping out a lot low cost, throw away equipment. Many of these units were a basic chassis they would change the markings and call a new model. The ones that are really cheap were what I call a 5 stack. Typically an amp, tuner, CD player and or double cassette deck and an equalizer or a turntable. They were sold as a package and made dozens of variations of these things. You see the whole stack going unsold on the Japanese auctions sites with an opening bid of 1,000 yen. Each of these units is free standing and has a 9 digit serial number. They get separated and sold as individual units, in particular double cassette decks. One thing I can say for sure is speakers from this era with just wire coming out of the back, no binding posts. I'm not cataloging those.

All I can say is use your best judgement and if in doubt, include it and I'll make the decision.

@Reidy12 and @antpaubarcar, as always thanks for your contributions.

- Pete
 
It was an old ad, reverb.com posting number 45582928 from 2022. I am not sure why I left it in except as a quick reference to find it later. The 500 receiver is a hard one to find. [500,75090686,reverb.com #45582928 2022]. Same with the TU-70 from reverb down the list. A lot of the search engines keep pointing you to the same ads.

You are exactly one day late. I run the report on the last day of the month and that was yesterday here on this side of the Atlantic. These serial numbers will go into the March Report.

Here are some stats from yesterdays processing.
461 SNs posted
7 duplicates in the posted SNs
44 non standard SNs manually entered to make 397 new serial numbers added to the database
1 decade duplicate.

These serial numbers fell out at various points in the process:

TU-X301/L,618065769,marktplaats.nl Don't know what to call this one.
SR-222 MKIV ,333620727,marktplaats.nl Invalid month digit
300,2491100001,catawiki.com

AU-7700,85505548,marktplaats.nl this is the one with an 8 digit SN. It doesn't follow the 8 digit format. We have 65 AU-7700s on file and none from line 85 or any combination with 8 as the second digit. Many were made on Line 83 but I'm not seeing a 3 either. I think we need to let this one go.

- Pete

Me neither. The model number was not mentioned in the ad. Pics are blurry:

Fine with me.
 
TU-301/L looks legit. I'll put it in. It would be good to find another one to confirm it.
