  • This is a Sansui AU-11000 Amplifier. Made in Japan, with no cost cutting involved in it's production. The knobs and switches on the front were milled from solid aluminum and have a tactile, heavy feel to them. Everything about this amplifier from the build quality, to the sound quality, screams premium.

    Got the AU d11-ll in Germany back in 1985. The polk SDA speakers and an ortofon cartridge for the turntable. Spent $1,500.00 on everything. 35 years later still works great. The $1,500 included a top of the line Harmon Kardon cassette. I paid $246.00 for the amp. It retailed for $800. Paid $250 for the cassette.

    I have a AU5900 the baby brother of the AU9000 and it has almost the same features, 2 phone inputs, 2 aux, tuner, 2 tape decks, copy features between the take decks, individual adjustments for Bass, Treble and Mid Range, Low and High Filter, Db Defeat, Loudness, we bought it in 1976 and still sounds and feels as good as new. Sansui was one of the best stereo equipment makers of the 60s and 70s, it was sad to see the company not being able to remain solvent in the 80 and started to cut quality and end up moving production to india and it was gone by the late 80s.

      I found one of these half buried in sand on a rubbish tip. I couldn't believe my luck, I dug it up and rebuilt it completely, replacing all transistors with better faster modern ones and the same with all the electrolytic capacitors. It's now my most prized possession. If the house is burning down the Sansui will be what I will be saving first. lol

    It's a closed unit and I don't see any easy way to get at the insides. It's got some scratchiness in the upper volume range.
    Thx!

    Those speakers on this video can't be all that efficient. I have that same amplifier with the speakers that were meant to go with it, the 11000 series. On each side, there are two of each: bass, midrange, tweeter and super tweeter, so a total of 16 speakers for both sides. There are four 17" woofers and when you turn it up to half way like on the video, you can see and feel your clothes moving on your body from the bass yet the sound is crystal clear. Awesome machine!
