I wanted an example of Japanese hifi from the 60’s. I’ve always been a fan of the Sansui black face models, and ran across a good deal on one fully restored. It is a 1969 AU-222, solid state, 18wpc. I chose it because it is a smaller size, and easier to fit on my rack. Only 11 1/2” long.
It ain’t that sweet tube sound, but it sounds really good😉
