Do You Want A Sansui G-33000 ?

DENNYDOG said:
Congrats! I wouldn't worry about the selector switch. The shaft is known to slide out of position on them and is easily repaired if nothing else is bent on the switch. I repaired one on a G-8000 I had.

Hopefully the cosmetics aren't too bad. I could live with the wooden case being damaged but other things like the faceplate not so much.

Hello DENNYDOG,

Yes, I am confident she will be up and running once everything is fully gone through. The cosmetics are not mint, but fronts on both are in good condition, with the amp almost blemish free. I also think that the case on preamp/tuner and trim on amplifier can be prettied up by my neighbor, who is a long retired cabinetmaker. He has assisted me with many of the trim and cabinet pieces in my house and has refinished other pieces for me. He never wants any money for his efforts, as he loves to still tinker on projects. The only way I can even come close to compensate him for his time is having him over regularly for a barbecue or dinner.

The listing shows that a full price offer was accepted? The offer was exactly equal to the BIN price.

Hello Brudha,

Yes, the listing was closed at sellers BIN price. We had both come to an agreement on the Sansui with other arrangements for some mutual horse-trading between the two of us worded in the offer.

Hope it works well for you -- sounds like a good project, and a cheaper way into a TOTL unit that I'd love to have one day. If the cosmetics were good (cabinets are nothin'), and you have parts units and help available, then I'd call it a good score. These don't come around so often, especially one that doesn't need to be shipped! :thmbsp:
 
Good luck, it sounds like a fun project and, I think local inspection / pickup is the way to go here. Please report as things progress! :thmbsp: :lurk:
 
Congratulations.
I've never seen a 33K but I understand the dual transformers are even bigger than the ones on my 22K and thats some big iron for a reciever. Id have to look at my service manual to be sure but I believe the total weight is around 105 for the bolted together reciever.

Congrats TowerBoss - hope the unit only needs minor work and is singing sweet tunes soon. Don't you just love having friends where a beer and a BBQ is all that's needed in payment when you help each other out? :thmbsp:
