Sorry I missed that way back when posted. Shocked to see that NAD actually built something that doesn't look about as attractive as an anvil.zulualpha said:Hi Rhino,

Please let me know if you see any mistakes. There are many brands on which I could find very little information. Let me know if you see any that should be here but arent.
The NAD 200 started earlier than 1978,bose4100 said:
sansui.us said:The AU-9500 did not have more elaborate circuitries Sansui developed some years later; however, it was well designed and well built. The AU-9500 reproduces traditional tube like sounding image; very powerful especially in the lower frequencies. The AU-9500 was the top of the line model when Sansui’s founder and perfectionist, Mr. Kosaku Kikuchi, retired in 1974. His product philosophy was “Let the products speak themselves.”, and the AU-9500 was his last jewel that satisfied his highest expectation.
