Sansui Au 9900 Vs 717, Firstly, besides the extra power and a few added features, does either the 517 or 717 add any significant sound upgrade? And could anyone give me their opinion on the sound differences between the 517, the 717, and the earlier model 9500? I currently I think my AU-717 has it (just) from a listening enjoyment point of view - but it is very very close - and I have not fully refurbished the AU-9900 yet. We will set the tone controls flat, turn off the loudness and get to the bottom of this! Hello, Currently I own an au-317 paired with a tu-717. Replies 2 Views 2K Jul 9, 2015 Daunia 70 Sansui AU-919/TU-717 vs. That series Sansui would put out much greater power at low impedences; the 919 was well above 300 watts at 2 ohms if I remember. I have a friend who is quite enthusiastic about his AU-717. I bought my first Sansui receiver in 1978 while I was in the USNavy, bought Sansui G-8000 Pure DC Receiver, and then in 1983 bought Sansui AU-G77XII integrated amplifier. May 13, 2006 · So, the AU517/717 marked the beginning of DC amp, with low TIM & high frequency -3dB response design. Hola, Uno de los interrogantes existenciales que tengo estos días tiene que ver con la comparativa resultante entre el Pioneer SA-9500, que es mi amplificador p If you are going to match a TU-717, go for a AU-717 and AU-919. Based on the sound signature, i find both has likely to have same sound signature but the sansui au 7700 has more advantage on high part but less power. The AU-717 amplifier incorporates an advanced design feature which has extremely low inherent transient intermodulation distortion enabling negative feedback (necessary in traditional amplifier design but undesirable) to be reduced to the absolute minimum. Enjoy the videos and music you love, upload original content, and share it all with friends, family, and the world on YouTube. In term of power, the AU 9900 wins the AU 7900 but i will be very happy to get one of it. I want a warm, easy sound but not at the detriment of woolly bass. Any reason to have it serviced? Caps, etc? If so, why? And can you recommend a knowledgeable service resource in the Atlanta area? One thing that should be pointed out: the AU-517 and AU-717 share the same service manual, as well as the brochure (AU-717/AU-517/TU-717), thus, it indicates they are similar in design. The 717 is easier to tune and still gives great sound which, by recollection and without an A/B comparison, is as good as the 919. The AU-719 has output modules or chips that probably sound as good but which I do not prefer in any of my gear. I have put these up for sale at Canuck Audiomart. Both are smooth but the 919 sounds a lot like my old G-8000 receiver. Apr 26, 2012 · Personally, I think the Sansui might be a good choice at the right price, but only with the right speakers. The cost is higher than the 719 of course, but perhaps with the 9900 I don't need to consider the 7700/7900 anymore <sigh> when it rains it pours. Had it not been for that disaster that AU-7700 would have remained as my main amplifier and daily driver. I have now been listening to my AU-9900 in my basement for about six weeks and really love the sound. Got a 717 as well- haven't run that one in well over a year. 80 watts vs 120 but otherwise identical. I've never heard either one, so what's some of you opinions on these two How do the four digit AU series from 1973-75 ( AU-2200, AU-3300, AU-4400, AU-5500, AU-6600, and AU-7700 as well as AU-3900, AU-4900, AU-5900, AU-6900, and AU-7900) sound compared to the 3 digit AU series from 1967-70 (AU-222, AU-333, AU-555, AU-666, AU-777, AU-888, and AU-999, AU-555A and AU-777D)? The MAC is a more neutral sounding receiver. Was wondering, what do you think of the 5900 compared to the 7900? any sonic benefits? Does it really do anything better? And the 7900 vs the 5900- a big leap in performance An interesting demo for you would be my main rack which I setup chronologically - AU-555a / AU-717 / AU-X1 / AU-D707X / AU-a907Limited / Masters AU-900 and a CA-303 tube pre-amp that could be used to feed a few of those. Jul 4, 2021 · Assuming all 3 are fully and correctly restored, which provides better sound quality in your experience? I have all 3 on the shortlist but can't decide. Happy to have another sansui amplifier in my collection. After about $400 of repair work, the 9090dB can be made reliable but it still has an inferior tuner, amp and preamp to the G-8000 and doesn't sound as good as the G-8000 or AU-717, IMO. The 9900 is part of Sansui's 'Definitive' series. The tuner is first rate. The TU-X1 contains separate FM and AM tuners with separate tuning knobs and meters, and sounds fantastic. . May be the recapped sansui au 7900 needs more time to run in. I think most of us will prefer the workmanship of AU-9900 series, but anyway, the AU517/717 series will beat the AU-9900 and AU-9500 in view of technically and sonic performance. ov63, zdmhfv, io5s, duk4f, jmm5x, xviro, 6i3rz, h71x, dcwc9, p5hmd,
