- Here's another of the quad receivers I have, I have 2 of these. I like this series over the QRX-7,8 & 9001 because IMO, their better. The sound is about the same and with good speakers the power is comparable, I know some disagree. I look at it this way, the receiver is in your home/Apt and you have the speakers to back up the power but really, just how loud can you turn it up before you go deaf. The problem with the 7001, 8001 & 9001 is connections, you have too few, one quad tape and one quad aux, big deal, my sound card has more then that, (and my car stereo) I can hook up two tape decks (play&rec) with this and also two quad playback units like quad 8 track players. I can also hook up my quad turntable, that's a heck of lot more then the others for less then half the cost and good power, after all, I'm not trying to shatter windows and I can crank this and still hear it 2 blocks away with the windows open in my home, anyways, enough of that, you don't need 50000 watts in a house/apt, that's my point.
fantástic Sansui!! Like from Brasil!!
I've got 1 of these i inherited from my dad who got it in the 70's in Hong Kong while in the Navy. paired up with 4 sansui speakers and a Technics SL-1300 turntable. i love it. He's got an identical setup to the one he gave me except with kenwood speakers because his twin brother took the first setup he sent home when he moved out.
I have the same one , they threw it out in a bin from storys, I picked up took it home set it up , and it worked , just a few scatches on the top , I have 8 speekers hooked up to it , wow great sound , they don't make them like that anymore , I love it
Guilty as charged LOL. I started working/building with electronics when I was like 8 or 9 years old and when Quad hit the market, it was instant love for me. I still stay up to date on the new stuff (and even own a few pieces) but my heart is in quad.
I have a Kenwood KR-9940 and just from what I can see in the video, it looks like the Kenwood and Sansui shared a lot of parts. The VU meters and especially the dial indicator and faceplate with the FM light etc.. on top of the tuning scale. Same colors too.
I had an SQR-8750 Quad. unit ... BEAUTIFUL HISTORY !! *Great Video* !!!
30w @ 8ohms but 22w in the full 20hz - 20khz range. I'm not sure how they did their tests but I do know IT'S LOUD. If you have some hi-watt speakers it's rattle windows.
amazing, just saw my g-fathers sansui 7000, restored/upgraded for great price on ebay, cool setup
Very nice, I have a QRX-7001 Quad too and it sounds amazing when using with the quads LPs...the beginning of surround sound!
it appears that the front lamp in the front left VU meter is burnt out along with the rear lamp in the tuning meter.
Hey the manual says your supposed to adjust the level set so that no needles go into the red!! I have a QRX-7500 & hope to get a QRX-9001(top of the line) someday.
where is the left channel needle in the VU meter ? it is not there or is not moving ??? . I have 2 of these . one is from the trash , and the other was left in a hall way . I do not use them , but they are quite nice to look at .
Is this QRX 5500 for sale
Hi,
Like your video, but it is a SANSUI!!! It is NOT a Sony. I do like your video though, it is informative and you do a good job. Your commentary is good and you at least made it very interesting. Thanks and VERY NICE receiver. Congrats on the find!
Got the same one that is cool you got a quad 8track player very rare is your reel to reel a quad also ?
so what's the best quad receiver...... and why??!! I heard Sansui were better than kenwoo and pioneer.... I'm new to vintage..... but I know what sound I want.... warm loud sound....
+episode 666 no one Many say it(the best vintage Quad) is either a Sansui QRX-9001 which has the latest quad separator circuits or a Marantz 4400 Quadaphonic stereo - and i would have to agree! I would like to someday get a Sansui QRX-9001!
Sansui! I built mine in 1972. Started with a 2 channel so added a Sansui rear amp for 4 channel. Others had Pioneer but Sansui is my favorite!
LOL geez, I was hoping folks wouldn't catch that. Your right, I think I had my head screwed on sideways a bit here when I said Sony, I knew better. I have all kinds of quad equipment I'm selling so somehow I blurted out the wrong name and I didn't even catch it till I posted the video...dahhhh...I feel like an idiot. I guess I make mistakes like everyone else, good catch though "iamtheman".
I forgave you immediately. :) This is one that I still miss. Had this one and a QX949 Pioneer. The Sansui sounded better. But more than either of them I loved my little 37wpc Pioneer SX727 which I also sold. I've still got a single Marantz 2235B that is my favorite and it'll get passed on when I'm gone. :)
I looks like you and I have the same problem
How the phone pre amp on it aka turntable input . Will she play back cd-4 record I know she has built in SQ decoder in her . I like the sound of her .
I just got today a Sansui QRX 5500A , What would be the difference between the the regular QRX 5500? anyways it sounds amazing for an 80 dlls receiver
You called it a Sony.
dude its sansui not sony
Did you just say *SONY*?
I owned the *QRX-6500* that had a hell of a encoder/decoder synthesizer ! and 37 watts (Per) in 4 channel mode
SAW2MUCH 68 How good is the qrx 3500. Have you any idea please I have been offered one and can only find bad reviews thanks in advance
This is Sony
