Good day from db Hifi in
Daytona beach Florida.
My vintage HiFi journey began in 1972– when today’s vintage HiFi was contemporary. As a wide eyed twelve-year-old visiting (as often as possible) the local HiFi shops to ogle at Marantz, Sansui, Pioneer, JBL, Ohm
AR, and Luxman gear. Budget realities resulted in the purchase of a Used Reciever from Radio shack and Speakers from local Dump. However, an oath was made, and honoured. Fast forward decades later, I have the good fortune of acquiring multiple pieces of vintage HiFi gear on a monthly basis – comparing, testing and Restoring them.
I’m now committed to sharing the love and learning of vintage HiFi.
Your viewing a Vintage Sansui AU-999 Amplifier. This is a real Old time
Dinosaur priced rite
It’s in fantastic Original condition without any major flaws. It has plenty of power and 2 phono inputs. Triple tone control, Tone filters and Tape monitors too. This has a Custon fabricated wooden box that’s better then Original. Dark black face and Beautiful dark stained wood make for a good Combination.
Description
The AU-999 is the most advanced professional control amplifier ever manufactured by Sansui.
Designed specifically for the ardent audiophile, it features the refined dull black panels common to all AU series professional control amplifiers from Sansui.
The pre-amplifier section is constructed of carefully selected low-noise PNP silicon transistors, while the power amplifier section features direct-coupled circuits specially developed with the improvement of tonal quality in mind.
Together, they permit the AU-999 to deliver a full 180 watts (4 ohms) that’s 90 watts per channel in music power output with unprecedented
tone quality.
The AU-999 is lavishly endowed with accessory circuits.
These include a tone selector circuit, an improved form of the triple tone control circuit that offers a choice in selecting the critical frequencies of tone control; a speaker selector which permits connecting three sets of speaker systems; a balance check switch which simplifies the job of adjusting for optimum balance of the right and left channel sound volumes; facilities to connect two phonographs and two tape decks, and a tape reprint circuit.
Special provisions have also been made to permit the amplifier to be built up into an electronic crossover stereo system and permit comparing such a system with a standard stereo set-up.
