This is the Sansui you have always wanted. Just got it home today from the shop (11/01). Never cease to amaze me when I run a newly restored 9090db. My 9090db was restored 6 1/2 years ago and is still my favorite Sansui. I drive an AU-9900 with the second preamplifier output for a second set of speakers. Not that the 9090db will not drive 4 speakers by itself. But hey an extra 80W/channel of Sansui power for your favorite concert videos just nothing like it.

See all pics for condition of exterior. This comes with LED upgrade seen in pics. No wood case I have had is in perfect condition. I would rate this one in Good+ to Very Good condition with some imperfections. But hey man if you are buying this for a great looking case???? You have to realize this unit is over 40 years old and has been used for many years. It is how it sounds…not how great it looks.

Yes the 9090db being shipped is one on top of my db. Really IT HAS BE RUN MAN!..For my entertainment and of course to complete the burn in of new parts. This insures that there are no problems when you receive it. Yes I am that picky. I check everything for 3-7 days after restoration. Then I box it to keep it dust free for you.

This is the top end of this series Sansui. 125+ Watts per channel. One of the best FM tuners made. Also boasts a top end phono preamp. Very nice Dolby FM and a Dolby B circuit for those reel to reel fans. And the ability to drive TWO amplifiers from its preamplifier. 

I have owned one since 1987. And yes this does outperform the regular 9090 with a very comfortable almost tube amplifier sound. The 9090 and 9090db are two of the best Sansui ever made. I do also keep the 9090 in stock for those who want that same clean sound for a smaller price tag. Purchase Either and you will not be disappointed. I have ten+ restored 9090 & 9090db in service with great reviews.

I am open to any questions you have. This again is a full restoration. A recap done correctly, replace those pesky fusible resistors, output caps replaced, output transistors tested and replaced with originals (I do not use cheap fakes) if needed, unit will be biased, FM calibration, DC Offset, and this one had the RF power supply rebuilt. I am very picky so these must sound like I want them to. I test all units a minimum of three days at various levels to make sure the sound is up to my standard. As seen in the pictures of my Sansui 9090db the lighting will look identical to that.

Special attention is put into the Dolby circuit in all DB units. This is an expensive but necessary thing to have done to all 8080db/9090db units. My technician does at least 15-20 Sansui 8080db or 9090db units every year. 
I do carry the 8080db in stock and will have one restored upon request. Ask for pricing on the 8080db.
