I'm Mike.
My vintage Sansui from '77.
Au717 amp, dual mono, DC coupled, 85 wpc.
AT717 FM/AM, 4 gang FM tuning, 2 gang AM tuning, audiophile sound.
Not shown are the rack mounts and rack case just for these guys.
Some consider these to be their best pieces.
And my Dynaco A-25XL designed and made by SEAS in Denmark for Dynaco.
Mystere, Thorens/Ortofon/Schiit Audio, Marantz, Rotel, iFi Audio, Paragon/Seas
Everything is gorgeous there, Mike, but particularly that Sansui tuner - pure unadulterated Japanese engineering at its best!
Marco.
