I love the Sansui sound. I recently got a au9500 from a collector and it sounds fantastic even though the main caps have been renewed. I came into the sound of Sansui through the more modest au101, and was so impressed by the amazing sound of this little amp that I just had to get me the mighty au9500. I was not disappointed. I hooked it up with hefty vintage speakers that seemed a good match. The A speakers are IMF TLS80 and the B speakers Magnat MSP200. They sound very different (IMF's are laid back and the Magnats are more forward) so I can choose what sound I like best for my current mood. I have kept the au101 for the bedroom.
Bought this in 1975 and it is still my only amp. Initially I paired it with Bose 901's and a Phillips 212 turntable. I want to replace the Bose 901's because my space doesn't work well for the reflective sound. Otherwise I have never felt a need to replace anything. I just love the sound of this thing and it has never needed servicing. I am following comments to see what speakers others have paired it with.
This is an audio amplifier, allowing for a many inputs ( cd player , tuner , record player ) to be plugged in then amplifies the sound and sends it to your speakers.

I know I'm not getting rid of this anytime soon ! ... lol !! Love it and I sure hope not !! happy AU-999 owner here ....
サンスイAU-9500は1972年10月に発売されました。
発売当時123000円でしたが、
1975年には135000円に価格変更しています。
強力な電源部の搭載により、
当時のサンスイのプリメインアンプの最上級にランクされていました。重量は23.3Kg、
正に超弩級プリメインアンプでした。分厚い中低域はジャズの再生を得意として多くのジャズファン、オーディオファンの心を掴んだモデルです。
音の芯までしっかり再生出来るサンスイのアンプは特別の存在でした。
その後AU-αシリーズくらいからサンスイ特有の力強さは影を潜め個性は薄れて来ました。
Nice bit of vintage kit.
Maybe you will sell it??
I want this amplifier how much
Sansui AU-9500, what is this thing made for ?
