ayos! ako bahala sa agua de pataranta pagdating dito. may dalang vintage stuff?....maski tu-x1 o 919 tuner ayos na!


edit/add: 19kilos pala tu-x1 hehehe
pwede ba yung kabebenta lang ng sansui...lakay sir mardoc! pahiram muna nung au9500...o sansui dvd sawing machine owner? ;D



Rene, di pa sumasayad sa kamay ko AU9500. Pag naayos preamp pwede ko gamitin as poiwer amp or pre amp separately. Like you, I also have an ADCOM GFA-II, hooked up with YAMAHA C70 and driving a vintage ALTEC LANSING 5 and so far it sounds good for my listening pleasure. Regards!

mga sirs,
 tanong ko lang kung ano ba dapat ang mga consideration bago ko ipower-up ulit yung mga lumang amps?  yung mga acquisition ko kasi dati dinala sa province (Nueva Ecija) and matagal na mga di nagagamit.  supposedly kasi sa brothers ko yun eh medyo natenga at naalikabukan na lang, nakalagay lang kasi sa steel rack.  They are Sansui AU-D607X, Sansui AU-D907X, Kenwood L-03A, Kenwood 1100SD, Marantz PM84D, Luxman LV102 and Luxman LV117.  Yung nandito ko sa Manila is Sansui AU-777 na matagal na din di ko napower-on.

thanks.

dalhin mo sakin bago mo ipost sa forsale yung sansui au-907x kenwood 1100 kenwood l03a.  ;D

basta siguraduhim mo lang ang mga voltage settings bago mo power-on. you may want to clean the contacts of the rca jacks and speaker terminal with your choice cleaner. if yuo open the unit, clean the volume pot and selector switch etc ...then leave the rest to God.

Sir Rene,

Sa ganda talaga ng TU-919, ako kahit japanese domestic equivalent model na TU-D707
tinira ko na din. Tatlo lang ang FM stations ;D but you can somehow feel the unbelievable
sound of FM stereo, even the AM performance is great. Lalo tuloy ako nanggigil sa
TU-919! ;D

PS tama ba? TU-D707 is the equivalent of international model TU-919?

Kung rotary tuning yan, i-check mo sa technician na nakakaintindi meron lang yatang papalitan na isang piyesa (chip?) para maging US-standard at makuha mo lahat ng istasyon. Kasi, naalala ko two years ago, may nagpabili sa akin na Chinese trader dito sa Davao nuong part na yun sa Raon pero hindi ako nakabili, kasi out of stock.

Meron akong Sony Japanese standard tuner dito na converted at kuha lahat ang istasyon.

 Hi Sir sandawa,

 I/we have no doubt whatsoever on informations coming from you.
This is great news indeed! I'll call my suki trader sa pier to see what
they can do. Na exite tuloy ako. ;D
Thanks, thanks again sir Nani.

Oh yes, it's rotary tuning. :)

Dito sa Davao kasi, basta merong piyesa, kayang-kaya nilang i-convert yan. Yung ibang wise na technician dito nuon, ang sabi sa akin nag-stock na sila nung part na kailangan, kaya lang magbabayad ka ng medyo mahal pag nagpa-convert ka.

IMO mas magagaling ang technician dito pagdating sa Japanese surplus compared sa Metro Manila. Kasi siguro sa dami nang binagsak na mura kaya marami silang na-repair. Isa pa yung iba dito talagang may direct contact sa mga Hapon, nakaka-konsulta sila sa technical matters.

Hi guys,

Just to let you know. BeatleFred -- the legendary Sansui expert based in New York who has moderated many international Sansui forums -- has just sent me an email informing me he's coming to Manila next month. If there's a chance, we (Sansui owners, esp. Southpeak and LordFoo) could probably hold a meeting depending on his schedule.

Hi Sir Nani...pag medyo maluwag schedule ko, baka pede ako maki gatecrash jan.
May mga kilo kilo rin akong bakal dito.
AU-9500- naka garahe...kakambal nung kay ojofool (sana kinuha ko... :()
AU-777-naka garahe
AU-7900- actively running in my set-up
AU-6900-naka garahe
5000A rcvr- in active use...para sa pamilya due to FM/AM .
 :D

Don, syempre, ikaw pa. Hindi ko nga alam kung makakarating ako dyan, pero two weeks si BeatleFred sa Maynila at Boracay, pauwi na early morning Aug 31. First week of Sept pa ang daan ko dyan sa Maynila. Gulat siya nung malaman na kilala sya ng mga Sansui boys dito sa Pinas. Kahit wala na sya sa Audio Karma, very active pa rin daw siya Sansui US website. Bata pa, 45 yrs old, at kamukha ni Sir Paul McCartney.

saan ka sa nueva ecija? taga san-isidro, malapit ako, pero nasa pasig ang familiy ko at the moment because my kids are in college...

just make sure that your units are clean inside and out, if you want you can momentarily plug it in at 110volts just so the capacitors have a chance to "reform" after a long lay-off....or you can series connect a 150 lamp for a minute....do not connect speakers nor plug in inputs just as yet...

the purpose of this excercise is to make sure no smoke comes out.... ;D

when everything is clear, then you can use your amp the normal way....type ko yung Sansui AU-D907X.... ;D

sir tony, di cla babagay sa taste mo, panget cla ;D.

let me quote our in-house guru, sir sandawa,

For several years now, some posters in this thread have been asking me through PM for amp units I'm selling. For the Nth time, I'm not selling any. I'm happy with just collecting vintage hifi. I also need money but not that urgent.

 So, please understand my situation...

guilty of the same situation...
kidding aside, will let you know sir when I plan.
As of now, just happy looking at them even if not using them.
Just coming off from AU-777 usage, rotation use at least every 3 months to exercise the electronics/lytics..
Yes, its an engineering  marvel looking at the insides of those beasts, made by our audio forefathers.

incidentally, medyo lamang ang PMA-830 kaysa 850 due the fact that it has "class A" output capability, yung 850 wala. but ultimately, we would like to have the 850 MkII, which is more powerfull and also has class A output..
sir rascal101, would you like to join us and post picture of your PMA-830 in Vintage Gallery thread?  :)
