listened to the speed comparison, realised my speaker channels were flipped. The channel that keeps on giving. Thanks Matt.
Forget about Sansui, why are you bothering with your everyday crap turntable when you could be using a laser turntable. I forget the name of it, I think it's ELP or something like that. I hear the sound quality is absolutely stunning. Also, have you tried replacing the caps on the Sansui? I'm sure replacing the caps would be very helpful. You're welcome for those protips, someone who isn't a channel regular would just leave you in the dark.
Imagine someone trolling techmoan by donating a laser turntable
Sansui’s sad fate...
Depressing example of "They don't make them like this anymore."
“It’s like a Crosley cosplaying as a Sansui” - best line in the entire video!
Kodak and Polaroid are suffering the same branding abomination
China, where old brand names go to retire only to find they are being turned back out on the street for the price of a Happy Meal.😅
Ooow the side by side comparison, that sounded like the band spent a few hours knocking back shots of tequila before playing
Techmoan HQ ... the only place where you'll find more record players than actual records :-)

The membrane buttons were a pretty good sign that the quality wasn't going to be good. Cutting costs on buttons says it all. Another great video Matt.
The separated channels speed comparison is almost pluffnub worthy
Sad to see Nakamichi on the list also. They made some of the best cassette decks ever. I own 2 in perfect working order and they sound wonderful, something about the tone they give to recordings that's hard to beat. Sad to see once great companies go down.
I'm A Sansui collector stereo gear myself(From their tube gear to the even cheap 80's plastic ones),and I was so enjoyed by your review on this turntable.that brand had and have so many fans around the world,you can see it on the Sansui forum at Audiokarma and on the many fan groups that it have on facebook,not any other stereo company had so much fans and lovers.
laser record players pretty much serve their entire purpose in archives, reading discs that can't be risked putting stylus to medium.
something I love about Techmoan is he fits the perfect niche that "How It's Made" Fit when I was a child. I didn't think I was gonna learn about old turntables an hour ago, yet here I am. It's perfect wind down content.
I absolutely love your simple, minimalistic, clean approach to shooting a scene! Lovely, simple framing you do as we get while you were filming the Sansui from the top, with the white background or the shots in the outro
Thank you. It is not like I could have ever have afforded one, but once I saw the online demo of a laser turntable, I was convinced that this was what I always wanted. Of course the drawbacks were never mentioned and if it was not for your CZcams page, I would still be dreaming of one day owning one. Cheers and have a happy 2020!
I was surprised to see you discuss this issue as thought I was one of the few sansui enthusiasts who lamented it’s downfall. in the 1990s when I could finally afford them , I lashed out a lot of money to buy several second-hand early 80s components and I still have some of them in use. Same for akai especially their pro-audio equipment. Shame so many Japanese hi-fi manufacturers went that way.
