70's amp or modern one?

[dakatabg]

This was Sansui's first solid state(1968),and I have it.. Does it compare with there later great models?

I know this amp but I can't tell you if it compares with the other amps and receivers

[thaii]

thanx for all the replies!

Think i'm gonna buy a vintage receiver, see a lot of positive reactions.
So dakatabg said that pioneer sx850 is nothing compared to the Sansui g7000? I think sansui was the top in the 70's or not? Are there better alternatives for the g7000? Can't find many marantz's so thats sad..

And what about the Kenwood kr9600? or 10 000 ll..?

What would be a good price for a sansui g7000db in very good condition? I can buy one for 290euro = 376$
Or a g9000db also in very good condition with professional modified speaker connections for 746$..

Or are there maybe better modern amplifiers second hand of this price range?

What would be my best bet?
