Matching Tuner for AU-111

[stefan_4711]

Hello,
Sansui manufactored a lot of amplifier and tuner combinations like AU-70/TU-70, AU-777/TU-777, AU-9500/TU-9500 ... and so on.

... but what was the matching tuner for a AU-111 ?

TU-70 is the closest matching for AU-111


Sansui has produced more receivers thas separates in the 60's.

Silver version of a tuner ? I guess TU-777 is a better matching

Tube vs. transistor

The AU-70 was considered ? to be the little brother of AU-111

Tube vs transistor

Yep that's correct. :thmbsp: One of the few, maybe the only one. Thinking of design TU-777 is better.

Here is mine, i have the 1st version, i think.

I've decided to gor for the TU-777... it's not a tube tuner... but has the same colour as the AU-111... and both models are from the 60's.

It's not matching but a TU-717 is a fine tuner soundwise.

That TU-777 looks mighty fine and it looks like they belong together! Gotta love that dial.

Stefan_4711, how do you rate AU-111? Is it worth its hype as state of the art tube gear?
