    Daks- Very nice pick-up. I think Pioneer makes some strong HT recievers. It is amazing the price you can get some of this stuff at.

    Mr. P Can I still hold onto my title if I mention I got a Phillips 30" HDTV for free this weekend...???????

    Buddy of mine went to a wall mounted TV and so just gave it to me. On the downside it did not come with a remote...

    Now that's the way to upgrade to HD. If you use a cable or satelite box you could use that remote, or any learning remote as far as that goes.

    Today I scored in mint condition Marantz SP1200 speakers rated 165W with 12" Woofers. Very nice and warm sounding speakers. They sound so good with the Marantz 2250B.

    I don't remember ever hearing Marantz speakers. That would be cool to have the matching components like that.

    Yeah man I have so much stuff home but it is like a passion, I see a good deal and I can't pass it especially if it is something vintage.

    Regarding the part for Sansui 9090 you can contact http://www.classicaudio.com/ and you can request it there.

    Other than just wanting to keep the 9090 stock, why not use a good set of RCA cables for jumpers. A nice short set of high quality RCA's may even be better.

    I second Mr. P's suggestion.
    I use a pair of short RCA's for the jumpers on my SX-850 and they work perfectly fine.

    Today was my lucky day and do you guys know what happened? I got home with a Sansui AU-717 Amplifier and a TU-717 Tuner both in mint condition and perfectly working for the amazing price of only $200. Another good find!

    Congrats! The old, analog tuners are especially well regarded.

    Yeah poppachubbby, lately I am getting a lot of stuuf but when the price is right, I buy it.

    I am looking to get a Kenwood C2 but I can't find one yet on a good price but soon or later I will find one.

    The Sansui amp is a killer and the tuner catches the stations perfectly. I am very happy with the purchase!

    Daks- Great pick-up and thanks for posting pics!
    I might have to consider surrendering the title of getting good gear at cut rate prices at the rate you are going but since I have a C2 and a C1 I will hold onto to the belt a little longer.........

    I love my Sansui combo and yours are several steps above mine so I know you are going to love them!
    If you are familiar with the fmtuner site you know that tuner is ranked in the top 20 and there is some serious competitors in that group.

    Another nice pick-up Daks!
    Was this the same combo that was on the Chicago E-Bay classifieds?

    Yeah thekid, exactly the same one but I made a deal on it. The receiver is very good and I am thinking of keeping it. The speakers are all right but not Impressed much. I also picked up a pair of Cerwin Vega speakers model 313. Super big cabinets with 15" woofers. I can't find much information about them and about the watts but they are super loud. I hooked them up to the Sansui 9090DB and omg, they are rocking and the highs are so nice. They have 2 tweeters in front and 1 on the back. Very nice speakers but there is no way I can keep them in my house. If someone knows anything about them let me know!

    Here is a picture of them:

    Thank you, thank you. The new Sansui goodies I put next to the 9090DB i have. Now is time to get some tube amps.

    Do you guys think it is a good idea to wrap some vintage pieces and put them in a good place? Do I have to play them once in a while?

    I am asking because I got so much stuff and I wanna put some on the side (i don't wanna sell them) so what is the best way to store them?

    Why can't you keep the CV's in the house? I found a pair of LaScalla II's on CL for only $1500.00 but I don't have the room for them. They only weigh 175 lbs each. That sounds like a lot of money but not compared to what a new pair of LaScalla would set you back.

    Because I have everything organized and all my cabinets and furnitures are in black and the Vegas look not right in any room I have. I would love to keep them but no space as well. How much do you guys think they will be worth? Like 200 bucks?

    I'm not sure what the CV's would bring.

    The only thing I can find about those Vegas is that they were made 1979 - 1983.
