Ughh everytime I see or hear the term "energy efficient" used in audio, I immediately know that the system must suck. It tells me that the marketing team could not come up with anything good to say about the stereo system.
I also got in the "home movie trap" but then woke up use pure stereo system again-and not "d" class. I had several good old stereo models from 1992,in 2001 changed to av (first sony qs then onkyo) but I missed the soul and performance with music so returned to a mid class marantz stereo amp paired with a marantz cd player 😎 I forgot the avs forever.
Man, back then, activating your Hi-Fi felt like activating a space ship. I used to own a pair of those APM speakers between 1989 and 2007. They produced the purest base I’ve ever heard.
Тоже люблю такие блочние музыкальные центры когда самому собирать не нужно а уже всё готовое, был музыкальный центр kenwood КМ 993 в конце 80х но начале 90х грабанули квартиру И вынесли 😔😔😔
I have a 1994 STR-D1015 receiver. It was the highest end of the regular lineup and was actually an entry-level ES receiver with the same high current parallel/push-pull amplifier. I love it! I have it hooked up to my 1994 Infinity SM 102, 65, SM video surround system. With an Interlude subwoofer. That equipment is gorgeous! Don't ever sell it!
I always love to see those high end Sony audio products especially the ES class , one of the top of the line beautiful design and the hardware still the best . Still very good maintained well 👍🏻
Tremendo equipo de música. Está demasiado de lindo. Ojalá yo tuviera uno como ese . Que lo sigas disfrutando . Se pasa uno bien escuchando música de la buena . Saludos de 🇵🇷.
Same question is this Sony system is it for sale ? Thnx Ya le pregunté si lo vende. Y si esta en venta … Aquí ba a escribir en cuanto o dará su número. Atentos. Chulada de sonido de los 80s.
I remember this era VERY WELL as a kid in the 80's / 90's it was cutting edge stuff with at least a dozen high quality HiFi brands on the market, competition was so healthy as these house hold brand names pushed boundaries & limits light years ahead of its time. Internet has truly killed the HiFi star, materials used these days are plastic moulded garbage only built to last it's warranty of 1 or 2 years. I feel blessed to have witnessed the Goldern Era of HiFi first hand.
@airmag Yeah remember Toshiba, Panasonic -National (prior to their split) & Sanyo just to name a few not so popular today. Bluetooth technology is another huge reason for true HiFi being a lost art of audio. I crave to jump in a time machine and just stay in the 70's-mid 90's never to return.
I miss the old electronic button cassette players. Even though there was a delay once you pressed the button, I just liked to hear a motor inside working to move things inside. Mechanical was often too rough and primitive.
Это все вернулось , но для очень обеспеченного слоя . Катушечники , которые стоили край 1000 бакинских , сейчас такой же уровень 20000 и даже 30000 , пример Балфингер , или новодельные Техникс . Как то так. А кассетников новых до сих пор нет 😮. Хотя там потенциал хороший . 👍
Problem today is that most people don't care about high quality music anymore. They can have their cheap produced rap music for 1-2 bucks. I am musician and compose my music with 32-bit 192kHz, and release it with 24-Bits and 192kHz. So you can listen to every detail. I don't can understand why there are people, listen to 16-Bit 44,1 or 48kHz Music. Okay, bad quality means "it can be much louder", but there are no details anymore.
What I miss the most is buttons, you feel connected to something you psysically push rather than just touch/swipe. Touch control hell on everything from stovetops, dishwashers and stereos. Theres only one answer: its cheaper. Everything becomes more and more sterile and streamlined, and in the end cost efficient. But I think it has gone to far, the next step is a hybrid between buttons and screens I think. Someone just has to be first on it.
Oh yes. The TC-K950 ES is still on deck 😂 in my system and yes, as Stereophile said in their only review of a cassette deck, the only cassette deck that can actually recreate a soundstage.
Dénme un LIKE todo aquellos que como yo, ABORRECEMOS las bocinas verticales que desplazaron las auténticas joyas como éste precioso, poderoso, e incomparable equipo de audio SONY !!!!
I bet Sony didnt sell many and didnt turn a profit. Reminds me of Hondas Valkyrie Rune motorcycle, one of the most outrageous ever made. Built for two years only, each of the several thousand made sold for $25,000 yet cost almost $100,000 to produce when R&D factored in. A flagship product that added prestige to the brand but not profit to the bottom line.
I have a pair of APM-141ES speakers which I bought new in 1991 the first year they came out. They are 32 years old and still sound awesome. A testament to the ES series! The speakers in this video are the APM-22ES MKII.
@@raylok3328 Awesome indeed! Too bad my dad wasn't interested to switch to Sony during the 80's. He couldn't believe that anything named "Sony" could be superior to his JBL 4311s. But he had a lot of Sony catalogs during that time, which I read a lot. And that's how I came to know about Sony APM speakers. Alas, I've never had any chance to audition one (not to mention I was still 12 years old that time, lol!). Right know my main speakers (in the living room) is a pair of JBL 120 Tis, a single JBL 4410 for center speaker, a pair of Celestion 5 for surround speakers, and a pair of JBL LX44 for rear-surrounds. But the primary listeners are my wife and kids, which use them mostly for watching films and listen to mainstream music. My man-cave system (home office) consists of a pair of NHT SuperZero, Sansui AU-7900 integrated amplifier, Velodyne SC-8 subwoofer, and a cheap TPA3116D2 amp to drive the sub. I must say it's more refined than the JBLs in the living room though. Still, I always wonder how Sony APM sounds like.,
@@Venga-Vintage-Audio Yes I thought that later, but I think this was only for cars and later for HIFI's in late 90s. Another thing I like is the DAT Player, very expensive in those years, it was very used in 1992 Sevilla's World Fair for background music.
Still have a Sony system in my living room! Nothing beats old school.
Man what ever happened to these awesome stereo systems we had back in the eighties and nineties?
Сейчас все снова возвращается, устали уже слушать новодельные аппараты 😊
Now they make that energy efficient D class rubbish stereo systems.
Ughh everytime I see or hear the term "energy efficient" used in audio, I immediately know that the system must suck. It tells me that the marketing team could not come up with anything good to say about the stereo system.
Internet is what happened. I truly miss these great stereo systems.

Qué placer para los oídos, y la vista también. Es una obra de arte incluso estando apagado.
Wonderful, a delight not only for the ear but also for the eyes!
That is an awesome system!! So well kept and maintained!! Wow!!

Ich habe die gleiche Anlage, allerdings ein Tapedeck 950 von Sony und Quadral Boxen.
I advise turning the power amp on AFTER the pre amp,with some amps you might get a power on pop which can easily blow a tweeter
Sony used to do wonderful things in the past. Now that's just a nice memory.. ; )
well true that what available atm also can achieve this, portably
@@iikatinggangsengii2471you can't compare this to today's portable junk

Lovely, apparently one of the best amps Sony ever made, I went the pioneer a400 route instead but did like the sound of it
The only thing missing is a quality turntable 🎉 p.s. I love the grafic equalizer with spectrum analyzer ❤

Beautiful stereo system!!!!!!!!!
Beautiful system 😍I've not seen a twin ES deck from Sony before.
Only BIAS control available on deck B though 😕

Beautiful man! Especially that CD Player is one of the best ever made! You just need better speakers
Those speakers were made for this system, best match like magic🎼
It's unfortunate you're missing the clip for the power amplifier
This set up is really so big that it made me think the sound is good.
Lol this video don’t do justice🙏🏼
Excellent!
powering up a system like this strts with the source unit and lastly the power amplifier.

W tamtych czasach jeszcze robili muzykę, to były sprzęty do odtwarzania tej muzyki. Dzisiaj już przestali robić muzykę, więc sprzętu też nie ma
Magnífico 💪
💗 that was not cheap!
That looks so nice... Have you ever tested how many W is the whole assembly drawing from the wall ? Without the speakers.
Great ! Nice music system 🤩👍
i have also a sony ES HIFi and the best component i have is a TC-K909 ES cassette deck
That is a great deck, it can put some Nakamichi decks a run for their money.
Oh yes. The TC-K950 ES is still on deck 😂 in my system and yes, as Stereophile said in their only review of a cassette deck, the only cassette deck that can actually recreate a soundstage.
Can you hear in the background...the electric meter going round faster at every switch of the power button turned on... 🤔😆
