Yamaha DSP-A1 Find
Haven't done anything with the display yet. Soon. It still comes on when the unit is cold, and without anything hooked up, the amp just on by itself, the display is fine. I will be attempting the re-solder of the back of the display.You wouldn't w... 
Yamaha DSP-A1 Find
Display is not working, and I was trying to figure out the very odd DB setting, and the display went blank. Hopefully I can get it back, and set it on normal. This thing is going! Works fine though. I had a similar problem with a Carver HR 895. I ... 
Acurus A250
Now I can let something go. 
Acurus A250
You guys would have been amazed at the stuff somebody dropped of. Including a very large Rotel Amp that some guy got for $45. I got the Acurus for less. The Rotel was a $1000+ used piece easy. It was how the stuff came out, or I would have got not... 
Denon AVR 3802 Find
Volume is fine. There is another secondary volume setting that you can lower/raise(?), the Decibel level from zero to 40. It is independent of the main volume.Again the manual can be quite confusing. Thanks Tls49. Very helpful. I will pick up a s-... 
Denon AVR 3802 Find
I re-read the manual,(The Manual is very poorly written) and I can lower, but not increase it's current volume setting.I cannot bring up an on screen menu with the remote although the remote appears to be fully functional. Tried re-setting the rem... 
How can a 30 watt, 28 year old amp sound more
^Thought it was a very silly response. Obviously you, and anybody else could. The point is that the unit is surprising for what it is and what it can be had for. I find it amusing you don't want to mention the brand let alone what model it is. Ano... 
How can a 30 watt, 28 year old amp sound more
Have a NAD 7140 that I have not used in over two years sitting on top of an excellent sounding Sansui AU 919. Decided to run the 7140 for a while after playing with another recent find that surprised me. I revived a thread I wrote about the 7140 i... 
NAD 7140 VS Nakamichi TA 2A
Found a unit recently and decided to run it in my system for a few weeks and was quite surprised by it. Decided to run the 7140 next for the hell of it thinking I might sell it. Still a great unit. I will leave it in place for a while. 
Sansui AU - 919 Thrift Store Find
Thanks Doug99 but I can find somebody in the area to revamp the unit if need be. There is one guy who is very well known but he says he is not taking work anymore. He is in his 80's so I can't really blame him. But I might be able to convince him ... 
Sansui AU - 919 Thrift Store Find
Sony 222ES CDP. Running a pair of Yamaha NS 1000's with it. The Tannoy's just don't compare to the Yamaha's.From what I understand the 717 is quite different from the 919. 
Sansui AU - 919 Thrift Store Find
Well here I am 13 Months later and the Sansui still runs like a champ. It truly is a great amp and deserves all the accolades it receives. I would like to get something modern, but I think I would have to cross the $1000 threshold and then some (M... 
Yamaha NS 1000M Find
I have to say after playing them for a week now that they are superb. Yes, if you are putting out 20 WPC you are shaking the walls.I just wanted an idea on their input capabilities. The Sansui AU 919 drives them nicely.I have noticed that the twee... 
Yamaha NS 1000M Find
I tell you what JohnK, you send a check in for me. 
Yamaha NS 1000M Find
I am finally running them with the Sansui AU 919. They are very nice sounding.They have to be as heavy as the Polk SDA's.
