Vintage Sansui 9090 Stereo Receiver. I've owned this for about 10 years now. I prefer my Pioneer SX 950 so I'm going to let this one go. This is a very powerful receiver with a nice warm sound and strong bass. The original owner refinished the cabinet and did a nice job. The cabinet isn't perfect, you can see that there were some imperfections prior to refinishing, and there are a few light chips in the veneer on the bottom of the right side as well as the bottom of the front of the ca...binet, but overall looks really good. The faceplate looks great. This has the audiokarma modification where the dial light stays lit on all inputs. All selector lights light up. When the unit is just started sometimes there is a light staticky sound when idling, but you can't hear over the music. Once it's warmed up it no longer does this. Maybe a dirty switch? Also, periodically one of the dial lamps flickers out, but it always comes back on. Probably a cold solder joint which is common with these units. Sounds great with gobs of power. Given the age of the unit I cannot provide any kind of warranty but I can guarantee it will not be DOA.
