I was looking around on Craigs List a couple of days ago, looking actually for a G-8000. My Son-in-law picked up a sweet one for $340 that looks almost new and I had an immediate case of receiver envy. I'm currently am running a G-5000 with Celestion Ditton 551's. Anyway, this guy had a G-5700 for $65 which got my attention. He's spent the money (so he says) to have a tech go thru the equipment and clean and adjust. So, I'm the pleased papa of a G-5700. With the exception of a small blemish on the face it is spotless, all the lights work and it seems to sound better (same speakers) than my G-5000.:music:

It is a very good receiver. I own one. The sound is a pure Sansui sound, and yes, the tuner is also great.
 
Wow Again

I picked up a pair of Celestion Ditton 250's for $75, They were available and I checked here and figured out I couldn't go to far wrong with Celestion so I brought them home and attached them to my Sansui G-5000. I'm truly amazed, they're not the Celestions 551's and the G-5700 but they are truly sweet in a small space like my office..... Help me batman, I have the fever..
:banana:
 
I have a G-5700 as well, and love it. It sounds pretty good w/ the pair of AR3a's, and better with the Polk Monitor 7's. Sweet receiver, and yes, the tuner is very nice as well.

Congrats on scoring the G-5700 and the Ditton.
 
Just picked up my first sansui receiver and it just so happens to be a G-5700. Good phono soundstage. What a great receiver in my opinion. Hope to find a few others in my career.
