Interesting Sansui products on Yahoo-auction-japan

MODERATOR NOTICE:

This thread was started in the Sansui forum and has been an excellent source of information about Sansui models and oddities and atypical items. That has given additional value to the forum participants and AK more broadly.

This is a tricky thread in that the source of much of this information is auction sites. Links to auctions is prohibited by AK rules, so don’t post links. If you post content from an auction site or screenshots that include auction info, you should expect your post to be deleted.

This thread has recently been reported and moved to Dollars and Sense because posts included dollar amounts and value statements such as “that’s a steal” or “no way you should pay that much”. Discussions of prices and value are prohibited by AK rules. If you post a dollar figure or price or refer to the relative value of something here, you should expect your post to be deleted.

If we, the fine Sansui forum members, honor the rules of AK, then this thread can remain in the Sansui forum… where it provides great value. If not, then it will be relegated, in its entirety, to the Dollars and Sense forum.

You may wish to discuss this particular post and other moderation activities. That is expressly prohibited by AK rules. If you want to talk about this, want to ask a question or comment in some way about this post, you are welcome to DM me or another mod and we’ll do our best to respond.

For now, I’ve moved this thread back to the Sansui forum, I’ve explained what behavior led to its temporary move to D&S, and how future posts will be treated.

If you have issues with this, start by reading the AK rules and then reach out via DM to a mod.

This such a bada** looking power amplifier!

Yes! I really would like one of this. Maybe even more then an alpha integrated.
Sadly the output MOSFETs are not available anymore, so is a serious gamble.
And the sending will cost me more then the amplifier, then the VAT comes on top of that.
If I could secure some output MOSFETs before . . . , it can be an option for me.

Japan Net Shop has these, in Japan.

@DB-7, nice find. I believe that's the very first time I've seen that model anywhere. Note that it appears set up for bi-casting stereo (one channel received on AM, the other on FM) but probably supports an outboard MPX adapter.

The fact that it's in such remarkably clean condition is extraordinary, seems like most tube gear that shows up has at least a few battle scars. I'm not sure all the knobs are original, and the red felting is an interesting add-on. I'd guess it's JDM, just based upon it scarcity.
 
No. Just hoping it's one of us, here in the US or abroad.
This one is there a year or so….i recall it from the green marble standing on.
I was eyeballing it when I was looking for a beast to drive the woofers and “break” the
X-11 monotony on the rack …
 
Moderator warning. Again.

I don't know how to be more clear. This is not a "hey, there's an item up on some auction site somewhere" thread. That is not appropriate.

Posts like that will be deleted. If we keep getting posts like that, this thread will have to be locked down.
 
I guess I need to go read the rules again. I genuinely thought if I'm not linking anything or mentioning any sites or prices then I'm in the clear. Sorry.
