How come no one talks of sansui?


i love sansui. I have a complete ss setup (electrocomaniet and marantz sm17sa + norh Le amp)
i heard my friend's old AU 717 sansui....i must say
very very dynamic and impressive...and solid build quaility
i am going to pick one of these that go on ebay for 50 bucks...would hurt for a garage system

I have a sansui AU-517 65 wpc dual mono and yes its built like a tank. I dont use it anymore becuase it has problems with shutting off,crackling noises. But when it did work it was a great amp. I also have a tuner,tape deck, and turntable only the tuner still works, all the rest either need parts of something. Also i dont know if you know this or not but there is a great website all for sansui, its www.classicsansui.com
Oh boy. That WAS my dream brand ! I would look to their catalogs and dream about the day I can own one of their gear (any one).

Never managed to own one. :-(
I have a ~mint (really!) AU-717 and TU-717 complete with rack handles. They look awesome, are built like tanks, and still sound as good today as they did when they were new. The amp is rated as 70wpc? I think but sounds more like 100+
i have a sweet looking 300 watt per channel ba 3000. it has big meters and did run fine unyil it blew some fuses. it can be yours for agood price.
