Title: Fun with Sansui and Junior 8
Post by: tdogzthmn on 17 Feb 2018, 03:15 am

I’ve owned some Junior 8’s for a few months now and have tried them with a few different amps such as a Bottlehead SEX and Firstwatt.  Eventually I came across a Sansui AU 517 On Craigslist for a sweet deal.  The amp sounds awesome with a deeper and blacker sound to it than the other two amps.  At 65 wpc the Omegas are incredibly easy to drive and the Amp is only turned up a few notches to reach listening levels.  I’ve used some line level attentuators to get some more play on the gain.  I’d certainly recommend the combination to anyone looking for a vintage amp with lots of features.
