Still looking for quality Sansui receiver or amp,just in case you are having a Christmas/New Year clearout.

Thx

Thanks for your offers. I've responded to those that interest me, but still looking so if any of you have a quality Sansui amp or receiver hidden away I'd be interested...

Thank You.

Hello

Looking for a quality Sansui vintage receiver or amplifier. Something nice.

Please let me know what you have?

many thanks - Nick.

Did you use this direct into your amp, or did you have a separate pre amp? What's the bluetooth range and sound like?

thx Nick

The Luxman is a vintage receiver R1050 55w. I've also got:
Proceed Amp 2
2 x Crimson 630c monoblocks
Inca Tech Claymore
Quad 303
Chinese Meng p1 push/pull valve amp 10w
Linsley Hood 75 w amp

Been looking for a while... These seem to have been well looked after. Looking forward to connecting up with a few of my (not that special) amps and feeling the air move. The 15" speakers pushing...

Yes please. I'll take these. PM sent.

Thx - Nick

Amazing. looks like something from Terry Gilliam.

Now you're talking Richard. That's a speaker alright. Would you consider making me a pair to commission? Or is my budget not realistic?

thx

Certainly is for me Gordan...

Thanks guys! Do you think the Altec Valencia's are my best choice?

Hi AOS

I have 3 options at the moment:

So it looks like I can get Altec Valencia from Italy for 2,100 Euro including delivery, but excluding import and VAT. I had a video call with the...

I'm listening to old speakers in the large room now, and they work fine - Celestion 44's. Just want to see if I can get a more full and moving sound. It's fun, all this experimenting...

Do you...

I've got a call booked with the owners of the Altec Valencia's tonight.

Thx. I'll steer clear.

I could get these collected from Italy, but the Brexit costs scare me a little...Ignore the grills, these are home made.

Many thanks Martin and Charles.

What about buying these and sending them for a service and checkover?:

That's what I thought Charles, in my naivety maybe, but a 15" speaker will have more presence in my large space. The domestic looking tower floorstanders may be lower in the bass range and as some...

Thanks for all the suggestions so far. Much appreciated. I'm still hankering after Altec 19 or something with a 15 inch woofer and horns. I can't get past big bass = big speaker.

David - I appreciate your input and apologies if setting a muddled brief. I think I do want horns.

Martin - Klipsch scare me a little as they have been described as harsh and my room is full of...

Thanks for the recommendation Phil. I've never even heard of these Audio Amy speakers. A kit is not an option for me as I'm a totally useless at electronics, but the built version is really...

I've got a large room to fill with sound and am looking for decent Altec or JBL Horn speakers. 15 inch woofers, to move some air around. Budget is £2k max. Please let me know if you have, or know...

Thanks for the advice everyone. I'll try to improve the acoustics. That Firebottle pre is very tempting, but a little over budget.

I will avoid following cathodes then, as that sounds a black hole. Will look around, or maybe post a wanted, for a used valve pre amp and see what comes up. The Ifi itube2 seems to be out of...

Very interesting video, thanks for sharing. I have tried several speaker positions. We move around a lot, but the sweet listening spot is in the middle of the room. I guess the only way to see if a...
