SE-9 have a pink noise generator. Oscilator is used to measure characteristic of room nad speakers. Plug in microphone into mic socket, run pink noise generator, it's amplified by amplifier and speakers, compu-equaliser measure this noise and set flat characteristic on spectrum analyzer with compensation of imperfections loudspeakers and the listening room. And everything in 1983. .
Nice looking graphic EQ. I first heard a home EQ at a friends place in 1977, she had the Pioneer SG-9500. I was stunned at the flexibility of that EQ. I bought an ADC Sound Shaper Two (with the VU meters) in 1978 and upgraded to the IC version in 1982. My ADC has twelve sliders per channel, bidirectional dubbing, EQ bypass, EQ record, output and meter controls and a great subsonic filter (18dB/Oct@15Hz). Specs are good, S/N 90dB and THD 0.018%. Not bad for 1982 and still useful today. Never cared for spectrum analyzers. Too much of a Joshua Light Show thing.
Yep - I have one. Just wish I had a good mic to have it auto-setup. For now, it's just my ears and what sounds right to me. Great pro-level video dude!
Good afternoon. I have the same one but one of the motors is failing, the spare part no longer exists, could you tell me the characteristics of the same one so I can find an equivalent one?
for those who do not know how to connect a eq to an amp-standard connnection: - source output(cd,dvd,tuner,tape,etc )--eq input -eq output--amplifier input on auxiliar ussualy , but u can use other input(tape,tuner,cd,etc) -DO NOT USE AMPLIFIER PHONO INPUT! number of eq's inputs may be 1-2-3-4 , deppends on models , ussually there are 3 -source-tape1-tape2, you will select one from front pannel buttons . if u want to record something using eq to modify sound , u have 2 options: - some eq's have EQ REC OUT on back , from here you connect a tape deck or other device you want to use for recording , so we have eq rec out ---tape deck input or audio input on other device -if you dont have eq rec out , just use eq output . -be aware that some models have a rec out button , press it on ,, otherwise. you will have no signal on eq rec out. some amps , have on back panel 4 rca couples ADAPTOR IN-OUT , this is a special case , so , we do this: -amp adaptor out-----eq input -eq output-------amp adaptor input bassicaly all sources connected to that amp(cd ,,dvd,tape,aux,tuner,) go throught eq and then go to amp power stage , so u can use eq on all those sources withou phisically connect them to eq. -a button ADAPTOR IN-OUT must be on front panell , press it on , otherwise this connection will not work - if this button does not exist, rca couples are unite with two C shape metal joints, remove them and connect cables as written here. DO NOT CONFUSE ADAPTOR IN-OUT rca with MAIN IN-PRE OUT . they look same ,, but aren't same thing.
Yeah, indeed a great equipment. Sad that nobody does such kind of gear in these days... BTW: This one is for sale: www.walkman-archive.com/wa/project/sansui-se-9-silver-best-eq-ever-made-working/

Nicely produced demo; straight forward and to the point. The shaky-cam people should take a lesson from this video.

Великолепный аппарат!👍 Вот бы такой в коллекцию!)
Good afternoon.

Sansui made amazing stereo equipment in the 70s.
for those who do not know how to connect a eq to an amp-standard connnection:
- source output(cd,dvd,tuner,tape,etc )--eq input
-eq output--amplifier input on auxiliar ussualy , but u can use other input(tape,tuner,cd,etc)
-DO NOT USE AMPLIFIER PHONO INPUT!
number of eq's inputs may be 1-2-3-4 , deppends on models , ussually there are 3 -source-tape1-tape2, you will select one from front pannel buttons .
if u want to record something using eq to modify sound , u have 2 options:
- some eq's have EQ REC OUT on back , from here you connect a tape deck or other device you want to use for
recording , so we have eq rec out ---tape deck input or audio input on other device
-if you dont have eq rec out , just use eq output .
-be aware that some models have a rec out button , press it on ,, otherwise. you will have no signal on eq rec out.
some amps , have on back panel 4 rca couples ADAPTOR IN-OUT , this is a special case , so , we do this:
-amp adaptor out-----eq input
-eq output-------amp adaptor input
bassicaly all sources connected to that amp(cd ,,dvd,tape,aux,tuner,) go throught eq and then go to amp power stage , so u can use eq on all those sources withou phisically connect them to eq.
-a button ADAPTOR IN-OUT must be on front panell , press it on , otherwise this connection will not work
- if this button does not exist, rca couples are unite with two C shape metal joints, remove them and connect cables as written here.
DO NOT CONFUSE ADAPTOR IN-OUT rca with MAIN IN-PRE OUT . they look same ,, but aren't same thing.
What a nice item. And a great video, very nicely made. Thanks for your efforts making this. Subscribed!
Que pedazo de máquina!!!... muy buen video....saludos desde santiago de chile
Proud owner of this great EQ.
Wow, now that is seriously flashy! Never seen one with motorised controls before
Should have done a close up on the buttons.
Do you might have a photo about the inside mechanism? I am very curious...
Está super especial el equalizer
Tengo uno que adquiri , que año son
Wow That's The Coolest Equalizer Ever \m/ !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ciao !!! non riesco a capire come funziona con il microfono ? Mi puoi aiutare 😀😅 grazie Michele da Venezia ....
Good stuff...
Andrea sanna Thanks!
My GF just found this at our transfer station!
Sansui EQ SE-9 : www.hifiengine.com/manual_library/sansui/se-9.shtml
Co cool.
sansui is great equipment, what happened to them, what are they doing these days; would still like to buy a piece of this equipment.
Yeah, indeed a great equipment. Sad that nobody does such kind of gear in these days...
BTW: This one is for sale: www.walkman-archive.com/wa/project/sansui-se-9-silver-best-eq-ever-made-working/
listing to my se9 right now love it I got the black one it was in storage wrapped up for 18 years what a find !!
I need a walkman!!!!!
1984
Doesn't look like you know how to use it, are you just flipping it from a garage sale find ?
WOW!!
subscibed
They dont make them like they used to..
you're welcome. In this century the people have loose this kind of equipment. who are the guilty???
