Sansui 6060

I am fairly new here and new with vintage stereo components, but I recently traded a newer Onkyo for a Sansui 6060 and am running my Wharfedale W60D's off of it. Wow!! It sounds unbelievable!! I am in the process of trying to unload a pair of 901's in order to get another set. What would be a great second set to keep my eyes open for to run off the 6060? Or should i stick with just the W60D's?

Congratulations on your Sansui! :music:

It pretty easy to tell people to get vintage Sansui receivers because they really are great. If you are happy with your Wharfedale W60D's, then I would stick with them.

Speakers are subjective and people are very passionate about it. I personally like the vintage Sansui speakers. They are typically very efficient which helps make mid power receivers like your 6060 play your music effortlessly. They are very well made and typically a crossover recap is all they need. Plus many have a very nice hand carved grill which is seems to fit them.

One the down side, Sansui made an amazing number of them. Some not so good, some pretty great. So you can't listen to two or three pairs and think you know what they all sound like. You need to listen before you buy.

Of course this may start a speaker holy war.:sigh:

Not in my back yard.....:no:
 
I sold my 901's and hopefully going to pick up a pair of W70D's on Sunday. I bet those will sound equally great!
 
So I am running W60D's and W70D's of my 6060. It sounds phenomenal!!!! I could not be happier. Just need to work on my garage system now.
