I think I'm going to be needing another rack soon.

Selling some stuff would help too.

How is Susvara on that WA33?

It's alright.
But not as good as Susvara with pre/power amp combo. Pretty much no contest. SQ is better with the athena/apollon in all aspects.

I like the plastic covers you put on the headphones! I could do with some too for that dust protection ... Where did you get them from?

Those are Stax covers. I got them off ebay. There is a seller in Japan who ships them worldwide.

Ok nice! They look pretty good. Do they cover your 1266?

Ah yes they do, but it's a snug fit and need to stretch the covers over the headphones. That's also partly because I constantly have the frame spread out to the widest. At the narrowest setting, no issue getting the cover over.

Love the AU-717 and it looks to be in mint condition! I've got an AU-D9 still going strong after 40 years.

Awesome! Running an AU-719 myself.

Today bedroom test. Dacmagic>sansui au717>v-moda m200

What model is the card board box? Is it V2 or V1? Are you the original owner? Does it increase the bottom end? Just kidding, really nice amplifier!

Love the vintage Sansuis. I'm currently a pristine AU-5500 in my living room. I have an AU-7700 running in my basement studio. The left channel drops out and I can't find anyone to service it, so I'm running the pre-amp section to an old Yamaha DSP A1000 (on which the Pre section doesn't work!). An odd cobbling of partially working units that when combined, renders an incredible sound. go figure!!!!
