Released in the early 1970s, the AU-5500 was designed to deliver high-quality audio performance and boasted several features that made it a popular choice among audiophiles of the time. Here are some key details about the Sansui AU-5500: Power Output: The AU-5500 provided a power output of 45 watts per channel (measured in RMS) into 8 ohms. This was considered quite powerful for its era and could drive a variety of speakers. Build Quality: Sansui was known for its robust build quality, and the AU-5500 was no exception. It featured a sturdy construction with a metal chassis, high-quality components, and a sleek front panel design. Phono Stage: The AU-5500 included a built-in phono stage or preamp, allowing users to connect a turntable directly to the amplifier without the need for an external phono preamp. This was particularly useful for vinyl enthusiasts. Tone Controls: The amplifier featured independent bass and treble controls, allowing users to fine-tune the sound according to their preferences. It also had a balance control for adjusting the stereo image. Inputs and Outputs: The AU-5500 offered multiple input options, including a phono input for turntables, auxiliary inputs for connecting external devices like CD players or tape decks, and a tuner input for radio receivers. It also had preamp outputs and speaker terminals for connecting additional audio equipment. Aesthetic Design: The AU-5500 had a classic vintage look with a brushed aluminum front panel, knobs for controls, and a backlit dial for the volume control. The blue-lit meters added to its visual appeal. Filter caps replaced along with aged or not working componets.
