Sansui AU-3300 Integrated Stereo Amplifier Vintage Japan

🔧 Fully Serviced & Recapped Transistors 📻 Vintage Warm Analog Sound 🇯🇵 High-Precision Sansui Craftsmanship

💡 EXPERT INSIGHT

The Sansui AU-3300 is a quintessential representative of Sansui’s golden era in mid-1970s solid-state audio engineering. Celebrated for its musical, warm, tube-like tonal profile, this model features low-noise phono equalization, versatile tone controls, and robust discrete circuit layout. Because vintage amplifiers often suffer from aging capacitors and scratchy potentiometers, finding a unit that has undergone comprehensive maintenance—including fresh electrolytic capacitors and cleaned relays—is paramount for audiophiles seeking reliable performance, punchy bass response, and crystal-clear acoustic fidelity.

🔍 CONDITION ASSESSMENT

Graded in Fully Serviced / Restored Vintage Working Condition. This amplifier has undergone thorough professional maintenance: it was disassembled, cleaned, and updated with replacement electrolytic capacitors, transistors, and dual-transistors. All volume potentiometers, switches, and speaker relays have been cleaned and treated, delivering zero scratchy noise (gari-noise free). Micro-mixing and headphone outputs are fully verified, with burn-in testing executed smoothly over multiple weekly runs. Minor cosmetic surface wear consistent with its vintage era is present as pictured. Please carefully check the photos to confirm the condition.

⚠️ IMPORTANT VOLTAGE REQUIREMENT (100V JAPAN SPEC)
This vintage audio amplifier operates natively on 100V AC (50/60Hz) Japanese power specifications. If operating in regions with higher mains voltage (such as 110V-120V in the US/Canada or 220V-240V in Europe/UK/Australia), a proper step-down power transformer is required to ensure safe performance and protect sensitive internal components.
