yup its a 120w per of pure old school Sansui power which means muscular warm & very musical. its the 2nd TOTL to the G9000, which is my fav 'Sui receiver, in the X000 series. its equivalent in the Pioneer series is the SX1050/80. to me, the pioneer sounds a tad better as its clean & more neutral though still warm by todays standards but its down to a matter of tastes & which speakers u're powering. in any case its has a great tuner, great looks & is definitely a collectable.
bring it out of mothballs & try it out. i think u mite be pleasantly surprized how good it sounds with your headphones esp AKG K1k, 701 & its ilk as i think they meld wonderfully with leaner cans. YMMV ofcos

My dad has an older Sansui G-8000 receiver sitting in his basement, anyone know anything about this model?
