Sansui 9090 is in da house! It's a beauty!
Looks very clean, switches and knobs are all very smooth, meters and lightshow working.
Cabinet as fine as it can be considering this amp is 38 years old.
If the inside is as clean as the connectors on the back it must be a marvel. Those things shine like a mirror!
Sounds pretty good so far with FM radio and a wire antenna, no scratchy sound on volume and tone controls.
Only tested with a pair of phones so far, speakers is for tomorrow.
Seems like I bought it from a decent dealer. Will still go to the vintage audio restore shop in Holland though to see if anything else needs to be done.
Very happy with my purchase but that doesn't mean I won't be trying out an SX-1280 or SX-1980.
The same shop should have a 1280 in the coming months and there is a chance on a 1980 as well. Wonder what the pirce will be though.
Don't think I will be trying a Marantz 2385 though with the info I have now. Anyone in favor of the Marantz monster amps?
Will receive my Infinity's Tuesday evening, a friend of mine is going to pick them up. Should be a killer combo!
Never thought these things could sound so good, should have kept all the old stuff I got from my father when I was a kid.
