I wasn’t sure then I saw it, yeah that Sansui is a beast.

I bought a 4500 for about $175 when my Sansui 9090db went down to tide me over. Good little receiver. Still use it.

You ...ing repeated yourself 8 times kid. You don't know wtf your doing bozo... don't even know what tge parts are called...

It's called a reel you ...ong bozo...

I need that album, his daughter sings on that song, she is a absolutely beautiful singer

Complicated as far as sounds go. Who is the best, no really best, all have sligtly different sound signature. Sansui really has a great velvet sound and non fatiguing, listen forever and never tire out of it. Marantz has power, seems more bass and punch a heavy and darker sound, it is a good thing too.......but the Sansui is sweet and detailed and clear.......I have both. I think the two receivers that are total opposites are Yamaha------Marantz. The Pioneer, Sansui, HK, and others fall in the middle. The 4300 is 53 pounds

Wow that Sansui is nice man. U got a new sub 😊👍 some great content I wanna go thru on here, and thanks for popping into my channel ❤

OLD STUFF ITS THE BEST NO MATER WHAT BRAND ONLY OLD IT'S GOLD .

It’s just like cars! The new stuff is extremely hard to repair. It’s a throw away society

Modern speakers image and soundstage better than vintage.

Vintage over Modern!

Now days SANSUI AND AKAI Kills all brands SANSUI AKAI ARE KINGS OF TECH .

What's better, a 1982 BMW, or a 2024 BMW? Different performance and much better technology with the 2024. Vintage should be restored for a more fair comparison.

what a beauty! That's an amazing shop!

where's the midrange on the 4430?

I have been a stereohead since putting the particleboard speakers to my Zenith 3 in 1 combo on the floor to my bedroom facing towards each other and putting my pillow in between them to fall asleep to when I was 10 years old, many decades ago. Stereos have always been the centerpiece to my entertainment system. I now live on the Gulf Coast Of Florida and the Goodwills, pawnshops and yard sales are a gold mine of vintage stereo equipment. I have enough equipment to open a couple of Vintage Stereo Stores. I can't help myself. All this premium gear I used to drool over and only dream of owning, now for pennies on the dollar. It's so fun.

Just a lovely sound. Thank you !

You sold a Marantz for a Sansui? That doesn't seem like a step up to me.

Modern 'no user serviceable parts'. Vintage "takes a lickin' and keeps on tickin' "

had all of those, at one time i had 32 pairs of speakers, every marantz. i kept my YS audio audio concerto tubes phono and symphonies + JBL 150, audio concepts Orchids and my fav Norman Labs M7 the best of them driven by a Hafler 280xl. just bought a pair of Yamaha n600a speakers for the soundstage and they are equal to my Normans. i have a bogen 62/L70 tt and just got another i am setting up as a mono/78 system. had macs and are garbage gave them away

I wull put my 119 pd 16 grand technics SE-R1 up against the new macintosh.

Hey Vintage do you have vintage stereo addiction too? :)

My stereo(s) are all paid for, all bought with cash. Vintage is a PITA. There is great new stereo gear that won't break the bank.

Beautiul set up in my opinion you dont need the equalizer

Are you setting up a Quadraphonic system? Were you going more for looks or power with the Sansui? I own a QRX7001 myself, which I use in Quad.

I think that the difference is that Vintage Hi-FI are a joy for your eyes and your ears whereas modern hi-fi are just for your ears 😂😂🤣🤣

This is where stereo equipment and records go to die.

Stop treating your collection like garbage and stack components correctly and not on their sides so the vinyl wrap doesn’t get scratched. I could watch your video because clearly you don’t give a shit about your gear so why would I care what you think about it?

Nice video ❤

Happy new Year man!!!!!!!!! 😀😀 (You better put those records nicely... the sooner you do it the better it is...)

Hey guys

OK, so you can get some cheap Chinese made amps and some over-achieving speakers. Hi-Fi is alive, but has it lost its soul? I'd have to say it has in many ways as the vintage stuff arouses feelings and emotions the new stuff just doesn't. Whenever new stuff that is "heritage" comes out it is often at ridiculously high prices. It isn't the same. Newbies don't aspire for the stuff and the old farts like me know you can find the vintage stuff at sometimes very attractive prices. So, can I call out to the industry that calls itself consumer electronics. We want stuff that is first, good value, and second stuff that isn't cold and without any nods to the really amazing stuff of the 60's , 70's and even 80's. Everything now looks like 2000's computer nerds design it and if it doesn't it's priced so high it's irrelevant. Someone wake up and give us something we'll treasure for many years.

There are some vintage speakers that are *REALLY* well engineered, and sound better than some modern equivalents. Examples: A/D/S, KEF, Infinity, B&W.

Jimi Hendrix used Marshall amps, so your headphones MUST be good..............

There is enough time allotted in life to be able to enjoy both old and new. There are no absolutes in hobbies that involve art. I still have my SA-8500 Pioneer from the mid '70s. It's been completely rebuilt. I don't use it all the time. I know it's on borrowed time. Not so much the electronic components or circuit boards, but the analog pots. Those have to be painstakingly taken apart and cleaned correctly and then you are left with worn, albeit clean, parts. This has me not using the controls as much as I need to sometimes. I also still use my turntable from the early '80s, and have the first CD player I bought around 1985. The trick is, to listen enough to enjoy both old and new. This is how we create the legacy vintage gear of tomorrow. I have vintage gear from the '70s-Y2k-ish. The better things made around Y2k are now vintage. I have class D amps that if they last, will definitely have a vintage appeal, to me at least, and I won't have to be gouged by some vintage hi-fi flipper to get it. I have two AVRs from around Y2k that I cherish for the beasts that they are and now they are used for 2 channel duties. I have speakers I built 8 years ago that use woofers that are still manufactured the way they were decades ago. Same materials, as well. The design is also not very new, other than tuned to the point of being relatively flat. But those big paper woofers and the compression driver just screams vintage, but with whole life yet ahead of it.

Nice looking receivers! 👍

Wow 😁

If you were trying to show us the price tag of the Marantz SR2000, why would you hold it upside down, cover up the price with your thumb, then say 198 when that was the year of the unit (1980)? All we could see was $20THUMB

The stuff was made to be desirable in the 70s, and it's still desirable. No big mystery

song name?

I'm no "audiophile" but I can't assume that someone who records their videos inside of shipping containers really cares that much about audio quality in the first place.

Anybody who is going to watch this video has a 95% chance of clicking on it because they are audiophile. And here you are making a case to buy expensive new equipment because you just assaulted their ears with your choice of a sound stage for your video.

Why does this video have so much loud annoying background noise making it very hard to hear what you are saying. Surely you can find a quiet place to record.

Can you imagine the nerve of this guy?… As an older man who worked hard and made a nice living, I can enjoy my equipment and retire! What a concept 🤣🤣🤣

Sound is horrible Hard to hear your voice

It is all a question of choice. You can pay as much as you want for good audio, and you will find it. The key is best bang for the buck. The CheapAudioMan has some good stuff. You can setup a nice mini system for less than $650! Just need to do the research. I saw some awesome monoblocks on a high end $1.5 Million system, just a paultry $199K for a pair. There are some hidden gems, but just know what you want.

Hi very interesting video The key component in a 2 ways is obviuosly the woofer It is difficult to understand its quality without taking it out Then the magnet and coil size the sound of the cone can provide some informations There are out there quite good units But most of them are unkown Then all other parts can be replaced if broken with not much money But the good woofers cost a lot

You don't have to pay thousands of dollars to get high quality sound. Once you retire and you get old (like me ) you enjoy the hobby even more. Why do you "collect" vintage stuff ? People buy thousands of records which cost a fortune and play them on a $300 cheap record player. I buy equipment to own, not to sell. When i was young i bought what i could afford and i was happy with it. Back then Hi Fi was a serious hobby. Back then everything was cash or bank cheque only. I think you should mind your own business and let people do what they want to do.

Money money money, money. More money. Burp!
