looks to have all the right stuff - never heard of it though. I wonder if it's solid state?

I bought a Sansui receiver from Bob recently. He knows his stuff and the unit is pristine. I was most satisfied with the purchase and highly recommended him. R/ Jim

Hi. Pleasae note that it seems the difference between 911 and 911A, is that the former is FM only and the latter AM/FM. In the notes on tuners on FMtuners website, the difference is thought to be that

Hi All; If anyone is willing to pickup gear locally, I am currently doing a minor clean of the basement, and would be willing to sell, or even give away items for less than 1/2 what you normally would

Hello Lucaa, must admit I didn't know this tuner or its twin, so I googled it and found that does have some good points..

hi lucaa! and welcome to this fine forum! this is a fine place to advertise something like this. per the forum's home page: "For Sale or Wanted posts are allowed, but is restricted to one post, per

Thanks! The TX6800 does seem to be the likely match for the SX580. I checked it out on the tuner info and stereomono sites. Receiver and tuner both came out in 79. Looks like Pioneer put quite a

I have made a lot of work on the TU-9900, look at my restoration work here: https://www.threshold-lovers.com/2019/02/07/sansui-tu-9900/ and use the bottom right "Translate" button to get it in

Hi Ralph Probably not the easiest to do. Go with your ears: remove the Marantz, replace with the Sony, press on. From what little I could find on the net, both are microprocess controlled. Reprogram

It looks like the TX-6800 tuner is similar. It has the PA3001A detector chip and PA1001A Multiplex chip like the SX580. Both are 3 gangs and 2 ceramic

I just finished hotrodding a Pioneer SX580 receiver for a friend. When I got done recapping it and aligning it, the FM didn't have overly impressive quieting. I thought it may have been due to HD

Hi Radu, Not to belabor the issue but they are indeed identical except for the marking. That fact is even documented on the CMF Industrial datasheet "Notes" section, quoted below: " (Except for

I don't know about your Marantz, but your typical AV receiver tuner has a 3 gang front end, an IF section consisting of two 180 khz filters, and an AM/FM chip that contains all the functions that used

John, I second your choice of Vishay CMF/RN resistors. Have not tried the Beyschlags, though from a quick glance over at Mouser, they seem extremely inexpensive, even in high precision flavor.

Hi NounoursX2, The salient point of the observation was that IMO & based on having done 3 9900s the OEM resistors were all to often out of spec. The power supply was particularly problematic, heat

I agree with Bob. Cheers,Ed SfmiP

No surprise here. A recaped & aligned ST-J75 (the ST-J60's big brother) is my long-term keeper of all the tuners I've owned over the past 30yr. Superbly quiet background and great SQ. The 60 is likely

I'm sorry if tis is not the right place to... But for tuner's lovers... -> One of the best TUNER FM/AM (very musical!) ever built, despite it being almost unknown. MADE IN GERMANY. In this test .. vs

Check the input/output sensitivity on both . The Sony's output is 750mV the Marantz input is 130mV so I would say the Sony will be playing loud . I read you can upgrade the op-amp in Sony for better

An obvious case of specs/numbers don’t mean everything. The parts in your Sony are probably a much better grade, too.
