Up for sale is a freshly restored 100% working - treat as brand new - rare SANSUI AU-888 integrated amplifier boasting 45 Watts per channel at 8 ohms. All the relevant capacitors have been replaced while the transformer remains the original. Sweet midrange and refined bass, and on some jazz and pop vocal tracks, sounding as good as or better than the next higher model, the AU-999. TAPE1 and TAPE2 RCA outlets can be used for CD and streaming or tuner playback, along with the standard AUX & TUNER outlets. Two PHONO outlets as well for 2 turntables. This particular unit has an added feature few restored units have: due to the ageing of the wood cover, the restorer repainted and lacquered it to a luscious piano black. Now it looks like a gorgeous rival to the famous SONUS FABER MUSICA  amplifier, or the ROGUE AUDIO & AUDIO NOTE shiny black amps.

The amp is easily powering 250 Watt floor standers right now at Volume no.2 setting, so there is no problem with power. It can go loud enough to disturb the neighbours beyond 2.5. Almost universal speaker matching. I have seen or heard it paired with JBL, Celestion, ProAC, Opera, Sonus Faber, Zu Audio, Focus Audio, Focal, Tannoy, Martin Logan, Revel, Chario, Emmespeakers, Pathos and B&W. It also retains the classic 'loudness' switch typical of Sansui, Luxman and Marantz amps from the 1970s.

More details from this site: http://audio-database.com/SANSUI/amp/au-888-e.html

Asking $890.00 but slightly negotiable. Bear in mind this is a very, very high quality restoration. Note that of the three sets of speaker terminals, Set C has one slightly chipped clip but still 100% operational. Normally, Set C is never used unless you need to use the AU888 as a preamplifier. No need to service for the next 40 years! Interior is super clean. I will also include free of charge speaker terminal adaptors that can accommodate the latest spade or banana termination on your favourite speaker cables. You have to see the pictures to believe how fantastic a condition this amp is in! You should also treat it as an art object in your listening room or living room. Such a near mint model is hard to come by at this price.

Keep your inquiries coming.
