Our technician has completely gone through and 'Certified' this unit. Everything was cleaned inside and out including cleaning inside and out including all contacts, switches and controls. Speaker switch replaced with another, original Sansui 350A speaker switch. We also aligned the tuner front-end for optimum AM & FM performance as older internal tuner components have always drifted on vintage gear over the years. All meter and dial lamps replaced for trouble-free service. Amplifier section had output bias and DC offset adjusted to spec levels. All inputs tested and both side produces clean and even sine waves into static 8 & 4 ohm loads! No power supply hum of any kind. It's dead silent! All functions test fine. Following restoration procedures, the unit was run continuously at medium volume, as all our amplifier / receivers are, into a load with "Loudness" on and both Tone Controls at 10 for 48 hours and into a 4 Ohm Load!
  
On our test bench, both this unit's amplifiers produced peak power of XX volts per channel @ 8 ohms for XX watts and XX volts @ 4 ohms for XX watts per channel via discrete, TO-3, metal cased outputs with 1 kHz input. (4x Hitachi 2SC1030). AC Idle current at .1A, DC offset output <4mvDC either channel. Floor noise at 2.5mVAC either channel.

SOLD  7/19/12
Our technician has completely gone through this unit cleaning everything including all switches (actually accessed (requires 'splitting' the unit horizontally) and fully flooded), controls and contacts for quiet, positive operation. 
Extra attention is ALWAYS necessary on Sansui 990 / 9090 units to the 'Input Selector' and 'Dolby' switches, and they were completely disassembled, thoroughly cleaned, burnished, had contacts 're-sprung' and tested (only about half the 990's, 8080's and 9090's have input selector switches that will respond to cleaning only). On this unit, he actually bypassed the wafer portion that routes the dial light current, and direct wired the lights to be lit constantly (the issue with the dial lights on Sansui 880 / 8080-DB / 990 / 9090-DB series receivers is that the contacts were, by design, too anemic to handle the 1 Amp+ current they require).  He also re-flowed all dial lamp solder joints, especially at the 'extremes' of the board. Now dial lamps light solidly and inputs sonically intact. DC measurements taken 'post-preamp', 'post driver board' and 'post power amp'. Questionable driver board replaced with another original, inspected component by component & contacts burnished. Once reseated, DC measurements re-taken. Once driver board was replaced, then the tech moved to address the output transistors. Substitute 'generic' outputs and bad original outputs removed and we 'hand picked' from our extensive collection of original Sansui 9090 output transistors, and closely matched 'quads' of outputs to re-install. Fresh heat sink compound used of course. Green 'LED' Power indicator's 'current limiting' circuit components replaced as necessary. The 'typically broken', Sansui 9090 AM antenna socket replaced . We also aligned the tuner front-end for optimum AM & FM performance as older internal tuner components have always drifted on vintage gear over the years. All dial, all meter (including the very difficult to replace power meter lamps ), all function indicator and stereo indicator lamps replaced with new units for years of trouble-free service. Also we 'painstakingly' replaced the 'dial pointer' lamp. The dial string was cleaned and re-tensioned. Once unit's electronics were addressed, the unit was cosmetically detailed inside and out, including rubbing the Real Walnut Wood veneer case with a fresh coat of lemon oil. All original, extruded face, and milled aluminum knobs in great shape after detailing. Internal and external dial screen and window in perfect shape. All inputs tested, including both phonos, and both amplifiers produces clean and even sine waves into static 8 & 4 ohm loads! No power supply hum of any kind. It's dead silent! All functions test fine. The real Walnut wood veneer in good condition with only very minor wear. Following restoration procedures, the unit was operated continuously at medium volume, as all our amplifier / receivers are, into a load with ""Loudness"" on and both Tone Controls at 10 for 72 hours.
  
  On our test bench, this particular Sansui 990DB, #...0061, amplifiers each produced XX volts per channel for 1XXwatts per channel @ 8 Ω via discrete output & XXvolts per channel for XXwatts per channel @ 4 Ω via discrete, Metal cased, original TO-3 outputs (Toshiba 4x  2SB554 & 4x 2SD424 output transistors).
 (AC draw at idle 350mA tested,
DC offset adjusted to <4mV each side.
Floor noise measured at L=00.1mVAC and R=00.1mVAC)

This is from what many consider to be one of Sansui's best eras. The Sansui 2000X stereo receiver. The "X" suffix designates upgraded f-6013 driver boards that are sought after by owners of "non-X" units as an aftermarket upgrade. We have had a few 'X000' series Sansui units and they are among some of the best sounding, 'vintage', 'main stream' amplifiers we have heard. Lot's of headroom and punch!

ü  All 4 power transistors removed and tested for leakage, the re-installed with fresh heat-sink compound applied.

ü  Repaired AM circuit board

ü  Re-flowed multiple solder joints

All meter, dial, function indicator and FM stereo indicator lamps replaced for trouble-free service (very difficult to do on this series of receiver and there's a total of 12). All 4 power transistors removed and tested for leakage. DC offset and bias current adjusted to correct levels. Entire unit cleaned / detailed cosmetically inside and out. All inputs tested and both side produces clean and even sine waves into static 8 & 4 ohm loads! No power supply hum of any kind. It's dead silent! All functions test fine. Following restoration procedures, the unit was run continuously at medium volume, as all our amplifier / receivers are, into a load with "Loudness" on and both Tone Controls at 10 for 48 hours and into a 4 Ohm Load!
  
   While this unit was originally rated at 55 wpc, on our test bench, both this unit's amplifiers, #...0112 produced peak power of ~XX volts per channel @ 8 ohms for XX watts and XX volts @ 4 ohms for XX watts per channel via discrete, TO-3, metal cased outputs with 1 kHz input. (2x Toshiba 2SC1079 & 2x 2SD118). Idle current measured at 260mA. Bias current & DC offset / output adjusted to levels within spec. Floor noise measured at <4mVAC.

SOLD 4/23/13
SHIPPED TO INDIANA

ü  Our technician has completely gone through and 'Certified' this unit.

ü  Everything was cleaned inside and out including all contacts, switches and controls.

ü  We also aligned the tuner for optimum AM & FM performance as older internal tuner components have always drifted on vintage gear over the years. VERY GOOD TUNER! AM reception WAY above average, FM reception incredible, PUNCHY and IMPECCABLY CLEAN!!! due to the triple FET FM front end and the quality of the restoration.

ü  All meter, dial, function indicator and FM stereo indicator lamps replaced for trouble-free service (very difficult to do on this series of receiver and there's a total of 12).

ü  All 4 power transistors removed, tested for leakage and reinstalled with fresh heat-sink compound.

ü  DC offset checked (although as it’s a ‘cap couple’ amp, there better not be any DC) and bias current adjusted to correct levels.

ü  Two stuck dual section controls were replaced and shafts lubed.

ü  Damaged illuminated dial indicator was replaced.

ü  Entire unit cleaned / detailed cosmetically inside and out. Only cosmetic issues with this unit are some scuffing of the wood cabinet and very minor wear on the face.

ü  All inputs tested and both sides produce clean and even sine waves into static 8 & 4 ohm loads! No power supply hum of any kind. It's dead silent! All functions test fine.

ü  Following restoration procedures, the unit was run continuously at medium volume, as all our amplifiers / receivers are, into a load with "Loudness" on and both Tone Controls at 10 for 48 hours and into a 4 Ohm Load!

On our test bench, each internal amplifier of this particular unit, #...3882, produced peak power of XX volts @ 8Ω per channel for XX watts / channel and XX volts @ 4Ω per channel for XX watts / channel via Discrete output devices at 1khz. (4X Toshiba metal case TO-3 2SC1079). AC Idle current at .220A, & floor noise <1.4 mVAC.

 This is from what many consider to be one of Sansui's best eras. The Sansui 5000X stereo receiver. The "X" suffix designates upgraded f-6013 driver boards that are sought after by owners of "non-X" units as an aftermarket upgrade. We have had quite a few 'X000' series Sansui units and they are among some of the best sounding, 'vintage', 'main stream' amplifiers we have heard.  Lot's of headroom and punch! Similar in sound to many of the NAD amplifiers / receivers we sold back in the 80's. This one also is installed in the optional, REAL walnut wood veneer case.

Our technician has completely gone through and 'Certified' this unit. Everything was cleaned inside and out including all switches, controls, contacts and the tuning capacitor. We also aligned the tuner front-end for optimum AM & FM performance as older internal tuner components have always drifted on vintage gear over the years. All dial, meter, function indicator and stereo indicator lamps replaced with new units for trouble-free service. Amplifier section had output bias and DC offset adjusted to spec levels. All inputs tested, including phono. Both amplifiers produce clean and even sine waves into static 8 & 4 ohm loads! No power supply hum of any kind. It's dead silent! The Walnut wood grain, vinyl wrapped cabinet has numerous, battle scars, but is structurally fine. Following restoration procedures, the unit was operated continuously at medium volume, as all our amplifier / receivers are, into a load with ""Loudness"" on and both Tone Controls at 10 for 72 hours.
  
On our test bench, both amplifiers each produced peak power of XXX5 Volts per channel for a VERY STRONG AND PUNCHY sounding XX watts per channel at 8 ohms & XXVolts per channel for XX watts per channel at 4 ohms via discrete, TO-66 metal cased outputs. (2x 2SC1445 & 2x 2SA765)

Our technician has completely gone through this unit cleaning everything including all switches (actually accessed (requires 'splitting' the unit horizontally) and fully flooded), controls and contacts for quiet, positive operation. 
Extra attention is ALWAYS necessary on Sansui 8080 / 9090 units to the 'Input Selector' and 'Dolby / Tape-Monitor' switches, and they were completely disassembled, thoroughly cleaned, burnished, had contacts 're-sprung' and tested (only about half the 990's, 8080's and 9090's have input selector switches that will respond to cleaning only). On this unit, he actually bypassed the wafer portion that routes the dial light current, and direct wired the lights to be lit constantly (the issue with the dial lights on Sansui 880 / 8080-DB / 990 / 9090-DB series receivers is that the contacts were, by design, too anemic to handle the 1 Amp+ current they require). He also re-flowed all dial lamp solder joints, especially at the 'extremes' of the board. Now dial lamps light solidly and inputs sonically intact.  DC measurements taken 'post-preamp', 'post driver board' and 'post power amp'. 'Sansui 2624-Driver-Board 'removed, inspected / tested component by component & contacts burnished. Once reseated, DC measurements re-taken. Once driver board was tested, then the tech moved to address the output transistors. All output transistors removed and individually tested. Fresh heat sink compound used of course. Green 'LED' Power indicator's 'current limiting' circuit components replaced as necessary. We also aligned the tuner front-end for optimum AM & FM performance as older internal tuner components have always drifted on vintage gear over the years. All dial, all meter (including the very difficult to replace power meter lamps  ), all function indicator and stereo indicator lamps replaced with new units for trouble-free service. Dial light solder contacts re-flowed. Also we 'painstakingly' replaced the 'dial pointer' lamp. The dial string was cleaned and re-tensioned. Once unit's electronics were addressed, the unit was cosmetically detailed inside and out. All original, extruded face, and milled aluminum knobs in great shape after detailing. Internal and external dial screen and window in perfect shape. We removed the dial window and re-finished the black mask behind it. All inputs tested, including phono input, and both amplifiers produces clean and even sine waves into static 8 & 4 ohm loads! No power supply hum of any kind. It's dead silent! All functions test fine. The Walnut wood grain, vinyl wrapped in good condition with minor wear. Following restoration procedures, the unit was operated continuously at medium volume, as all our amplifier / receivers are, into a load with ""Loudness"" on and both Tone Controls at 10 for 72 hours.
  
  On our test bench, this particular Sansui 8080, #...0786, amplifiers each produced 27.8 volts per channel for 96 watts per channel @ 8 Ω via discrete output & 24 volts per channel for 144 watts per channel @ 4 Ω via discrete, Metal cased, original TO-3 outputs (Sanken 4x  2SC1116 output transistors).
 (AC draw at idle 245mA tested,
DC offset adjusted to <3mV each side.)
 The tuner quality on both AM & FM is exceptional due to aspects such as a fully shielded tuning capacitor . The 'typically broken' Sansui 8080 AM antenna socket still intact and 'un-broken'.

Once reseated, DC measurements re-taken. Once driver board was tested, then the tech moved to address the output transistors. Substitute 'generic' outputs and bad original outputs removed and we 'hand picked' from our extensive collection of original Sansui 9090 output transistors, and matched 'quads' of outputs to re-install. Fresh heat sink compound used of course. Green 'LED' Power indicator's 'current limiting' circuit components replaced as necessary. We also aligned the tuner front-end for optimum AM & FM performance as older internal tuner components have always drifted on vintage gear over the years. All dial, all meter (including the very difficult to replace power meter lamps  ), all function indicator and stereo indicator lamps replaced with new units for years of trouble-free service ('Stereo' indicator replaced with an LED). Also we 'painstakingly' replaced the 'dial pointer' lamp. The dial string was cleaned and re-tensioned. Once unit's electronics were addressed, the unit was cosmetically detailed inside and out, including rubbing the Real Walnut Wood veneer case with a fresh coat of lemon oil. All original, extruded face, and milled aluminum knobs in great shape after detailing. Internal and external dial screen and window in perfect shape. All inputs tested, including both phonos, and both amplifiers produces clean and even sine waves into static 8 & 4 ohm loads! No power supply hum of any kind. It's dead silent! All functions test fine. The real Walnut wood veneer in good condition with only very minor wear.  Following restoration procedures, the unit was operated continuously at medium volume, as all our amplifier / receivers are, into a load with ""Loudness"" on and both Tone Controls at 10 for 72 hours.
  
  On our test bench, this particular Sansui 9090DB, #...0129, amplifiers each produced 35 volts per channel for 153 watts per channel @ 8 Ω via discrete output & 31 volts per channel for 242 watts per channel @ 4 Ω via discrete, Metal cased, original TO-3 outputs (Toshiba 4x  2SB554 & 4x 2SD424 output transistors).
 (AC draw at idle 420mA tested,
DC offset adjusted to <2mV each side.)
  ___________________________ 
  
  Here's the first Sansui 9090DB we've had, that's made it all the way through our restoration with no 'terminal' issues, since 2004! These receivers are known for great AM/FM tuners, and amplifiers that you can "darn near weld with". The tuner quality on both AM & FM is exceptional due to aspects such as a fully shielded tuning capacitor . The amps are incredibly warm sounding with HUGE punch and headroom. Very "Musical" sounding with real output transistors and huge power supplies.  A testament to the strength of the power supply is that the results we achieved on the test bench. Most receivers will have from 20-40% more power at 4 Ohms than they do at 8 Ohms. This is primarily due to power supply limitations. However, the Sansui 9090 at 4 Ohms is almost double what the receiver's amplifiers are are rated at for 8 Ohms!!!
The difference in tone of an 8080 or 9090, with a 'clean bill of health', and most other receivers is astronomical. It's a difference that must be experienced to be appreciated.  Again, we done EXTENSIVE refurbishment / restoration work (~18 hours) on this unit to insure it's performance. With the exception of a few very minor 'tic' marks on the front panel, the face plate, window and knobs are in great cosmetic condition (see photos above). The 'typically broken' Sansui 9090 AM antenna socket still intact and 'un-broken'.

Our technician has completely gone through and 'Certified' this unit, cleaning everything including all switches, controls and contacts for quiet, positive operation.
Extra attention is ALWAYS necessary on Sansui units to the 'Input Selector'  and 'Tape Monitor' switches, and they were thoroughly cleaned and tested (one great thing about the "G" series, over it's predecessor series, the 990/9090 and 8080, is that the input selector contacts are not also conducting the 'dial lamps', so a common intermittent dial lamp issue with those units is averted on the G-9000). He also re-flowed all dial lamp solder joints, especially at the 'extremes' of the board. ALL NEW dial lamps light solidly and inputs sonically intact. DC measurements taken 'post-preamp', 'post driver board' and 'post power amp'. Bias current set to spec. Green 'LED' Power indicator's 'current limiting' circuit components tested. We also aligned the tuner dial indicator and tuner front-end for optimum AM & FM performance as older internal tuner components have always drifted on vintage gear over the years. All dial, all meter (including the very difficult to replace power meter lamps), all function indicator and stereo indicator lamps replaced with new units for years of trouble-free service.  Mechanical volume preset disassembled, cleaned and re-lubed. Once the unit's electronics were addressed, it was cosmetically detailed inside and out. All original, extruded face, and milled aluminum knobs in great shape after detailing. Internal and external dial screen and window in perfect shape. All inputs tested, including both phonos, and both amplifiers produce clean and even sine waves into static 8 & 4 ohm loads! No power supply hum of any kind. It's dead silent! All functions test fine. Only cosmetic issues are minor, ie; a small tic in the upper, left corner of the face plate, and some minor scuffs on the sides (see above photos). The real Walnut wood veneer in good condition with only very minor wear. Following restoration procedures, the unit was operated continuously at medium volume, as all our amplifier / receivers are, into a load with ""Loudness"" on and both Tone Controls at 10 for 72 hours.

On our test bench, this particular Sansui G-9000, #...0492, amplifiers each produced 38 volts per channel for 180 watts per channel @ 8 Ω via discrete output & 35 volts per channel for 306 watts per channel @ 4 Ω via discrete, Metal cased, original TO-3 outputs.
