Always enjoyed the Rodrigues cartoons in Stereo Review. Somethings never change. Today's audiophile publications are laden with flowery descriptive phrases such as "liquid", "speed" and "timing". Have our speakers turned into mushy metronomes? Or my favorite "these speakers 'throw up" a (fill in your adjective) soundstage". Are my speakers vomiting sound?

JKent Posted December 28, 2016 Author Report Share Posted December 28, 2016 OK Here's another. You have to remember this was published about 40 years ago IIRC, so adjusted for inflation, $4,600 would be about $20,000 today. -K Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

samberger0357 Posted December 29, 2016 Report Share Posted December 29, 2016 I think that system is worth a few more $$ then you're giving it credit for, Liangshan. I'm quite envious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm quite envious. Yup Sam! My wife always complained why I was collected a lot of vintage speakers and advised me keeping just one pair that is enough... Every time I bought a new pair I told her It cost just $20-$30 bucks from a garage sales... so so,,, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samberger0357 Posted December 29, 2016 Report Share Posted December 29, 2016 You might want to leave something in the will that will inform of her the true value of those beauties so she doesn't get swindled. Or not. Guess in the end it won't matter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liangshan Marsh Posted December 29, 2016 Report Share Posted December 29, 2016 Yes, good advice .Later I will do it Thanks Sam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
genek Posted December 29, 2016 Report Share Posted December 29, 2016 Better yet, make up a list of people you know will appreciate them and either specify that they should have first shot at buying them or just leave to them in your will. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see two Sansui receivers. I think one is a 9090..and other? The 9090 was the first BIG receiver I bought back in 1976. Still have it and use it today. Had it recapped about four years ago. Got it matched to some 3a's and the 12's in my bedroom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liangshan Marsh Posted December 30, 2016 Report Share Posted December 30, 2016 Hi Lakecat! Yes both are the SS9090, they are all original nice working condition, perfect matched for my High Def Mythos STS and Altec 803b-811d horn speakers... I had tried the SS9090 couple times for my AR3s... but since It rates 8ohms and lack of the bass I was only using it for the other 8 ohms speakers... I wish I have the pure power Sansui g9000db or Marantz 2500/2600/2385 to match up with my AR3s speakers that my friend said It gave the AR3s an excellent sound,( very details and tight warm bass) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
