Sansui AU 707 dual mono, direct coupled hifi amplifier
$730 Negotiable
SHIPPING OFFERED
Classic Sansui AU 707 dual mono, direct coupled amp from 1976.
85watts per channel with a total harmonic rate of 0.01%
This is the Japanese version of the AU 717 that will be sold with a brand new 500 watt step transformer for the asking price.
This is a behemoth of an amplifier that would be a keeper if I wasn’t already up to my eyeballs in keeper amps. Having said that, lowballs be warned I’m more than happy for this thing to stay in my study system playing tangerine dream and the Bladerunner (Vangelis), soundtrack.
Unlike the earlier triple digit AU’s which attempted to model brown, valve, sound, this amp is all the better in respect to its punch and transparency, paired with a pair of decent modern speakers from the likes of B&W or Xavian (which I’m currently using) results in pure audio bliss that’s hard to beat.
Cosmetically it’s in good rather than great condition, it’s still presentable but there are a few scratches and the case could do with a little tlc.
Beyond this it’s just back from a service (internal clean, biased), and it’s functioning as it should. Comes with a 1 month service warranty!
Located in Wollongong but pick from Canberra or postage aus wide also available.
Thanks for looking!
