Pepa's Sansu-topia

Wow,member’s system is growing rapidly; luvvinvinyl,you did a smart move :yes:

Five years ago we moved into a new apartment and now there is no place for a man cave (but I don’t care), the kids grow and have their needs, and we are destined to our living room..only
This is the only image I found,fresh after settling down:

As you can see, it was nothing special,just some cheap Pioneer,Sony Marantz stuff and SF Minima Amator speakers on Atacama stands.I was just an ordinary,regular (I wonder if such actually exists :D) audio fan... until two years ago I rediscovered Sansui.
This beautiful example of the tuner has completely changed my perception of the audio world. Words can’t describe my revelation.

Soon I became like a mad dog. Several hours per day I searched the worldwide ads, surfed through the net for informations.... I was so obsessed that my wife had become suspicious...
And, my hard work was successful. I picked up a bunch of Suis, met a lot of Sansui enthusiasts,and found this great web site with wonderful people; AK
A big thanks to all of you :thmbsp:

Some of my quarry’s:

I was very persistent and crazy enough,and after several months, our room looked like this:
(I forgot to say that in the meantime I managed to get two massive G22K; thanks to friend of mine from Florida)

I've got some just in casers too. Like sheltie dave says, it's like ice cream. A scoop of this, a scoop of that...

:lmao:

When my wife starts to complain about the amount of equipment in our living room I return with a philosophical speech about redundancy :D

Quite suddenly,(as a bolt from the blue sky), I grabbed this mint pair in my very neighborhood :banana: I couldn't believe.

Those WLM's are gorgeous (and right up my {Tannoy} alley)! Some insane gear in the linked review btw.
(A store near here has a pair, I still need to audition them :) )

You should try.Especially if you have some tube amp.What Tannoy you are talking about?

PS-Friend of mine was at Mr.H.Frick's house....what to say except :jawdrop:
just take a look at the gallery
 
Very nice stuff, Pepa. Congrats.

I would take immediately one of your G22000.

This is one of the few Sansui Receivers I've never had the luck to own,

Sansui is my all time favourite brand.

Tnx Peter,
No problem,I got a third one, two-three months ago.You know what I'm looking for :D
 
that's a nice sansui collection :thmbsp:the only thing wrong is i think the au717 needs the correct tuner to go with it and the 517 needs the correct amp .:smoke:

I do not know can you infer from the pictures, but this amp is really huge.Other Sansui amps in comparison look like toys.
 
Time for some more recent pictures :D
Late last year,I bought another big G.Was pricy and wasn't essential,but hey this one is a real keeper.
