Gday Sanuinandos from downunder

 

agree 100% today is a good day !!! cause the Sansui AU-111  aka æ‹›ã猫 Maneki-neko already  landed in Frankfurt  so mid next week ill pick up the 1967 gemstone at Hamburg Costumoffice -- good times and cant await first visual inspection  at home later my buddy will take care of the technical situation and adjust and replace where its necessary ill do the polish and shining part  if necessary

then  hook up to JBL L50  or JBL 4312E  hehehe  later ill send reports about my listing impressions about this Godfather of high praised Sansuisound  allover the Planet

Guess it will be getting hard for Maneki-neko cause there is a Classe DR8 +DR5 or a gorgeous little 2x4W Triodeamp handcrafted by sibirian engineer with red army tubes) + Pioneer C-21 preamp to beat well will listen and see --->

Those Wima caps are new.

 

The rest as far as I can tell is original, I wonder how the power filter caps are? or have they been stuffed?

 

Nice amps :)

Hello Sir Ortofun

you mean except the replaced caps with new Wima caps   all other components are original inside the 111 ?

what do you think i should improofe or replace any other parts beside the things already done  ?

any idea cause im not an expert enough ,beside the Amp is running very smooth but very hot about 65Celsius or more hehehe as i posted before

cheers

I wouldn't advise anything, I was only making an observation. As your tech has replaced many but not all of the Elna caps, I would say he replaced only those that he found that measured out of spec.

 

For It's age I would be tempted to replace all the remaining electrolytic caps including the power filter caps as well, but that's just me and I'm no tech'.

 

Edit: And I only recognise those wima caps as being new, I have no idea what else he may have done.

 :party replaced  some Sansui Gear and found out by the time that Pioneer Audio Equipment

So in between i ended up in the moment with a Pioneer A-09 and give the Sansui AU-111 a break and put in the shed.

as backup system i run Sanui AU-X! and TU-777  --- FM Radiostations are extremly clear
