Sansui
« on: January 31, 2014, 10:53:14 AM »
I am looking for a new to me Sansui receiver. I currently am running a 6060 and just want something a little more TOTL. My budget is under $250. Any opinions on which model line would be best? Also the ability to run 3 sets of speakers is a plus. Thanks.

That's five watts a speaker.   You should get a tube amp.

Seriously though, I've never owned any Sansui gear, though I do hope to score one of their quad units some day.   All the quad guys say that their decoders were the best.
