Author Topic: Forseti: My mediocre set-up (Metaxas Ikarus amplifier.....finally) (Read 139366 times)

wow bro congrats on your awesome audio set-up.

Natuwa ako kasi I saw your Sansui QRX-7500. My dad has that in his bodega and I was telling Master Jojo about it. Nakakabit din technics direct drive turntable. I remember my dad playing , chuck mangione, ella fitzgerald and james last records dati. And they were sweet sounding! Plano ko na ngayon i-revive yung samin.

Question lng about the Sansui, is this a tube amplifier? Can i connect a CD player dito?

TIA.

Yes, you can thru aux input. Solid state and warm sounding.

Good luck!

Wala na sir. Tagal na nun. Sayang nga kasi I heard RARE and mahal na daw ngayon yun and collector's item. I remember ginagamit dati nila MOD, DJ Ouch and DJ Qbert sa DMC Dj mixing championships yun.

Sir btw, anong magandang mi-end bookshelves ang pwedeng ikabit sa Sansui QRX-7500? Ano dapat ang specs to match it?

Yes, you are right, it is already a gem and collector's item.

Try matching your Sansui QRX 7500 with B&W, Monitor Audio, Wharfedale speakers......... etc....

Thanks sir! I'll probably shop around for B&W or Monitor Audio.
