Let's be real, a lot of vintage audio equipment is… well, old. Parts fail, sound degrades, and finding someone who actually knows how to fix it can be a nightmare. That’s where AUTUS FORTUNA comes in. They specialize in taking apart, meticulously cleaning, and expertly rebuilding Sansui amplifiers – the ones that folks rave about for their rich, smooth sound. Why Sansui? A Legacy of Audio Excellence For those not in the know, Sansui was huge back in the day. We're talking the 60s, 70s, and 80s. They weren’t just making amps; they were crafting audio experiences. Think warm, inviting sound, powerful enough to fill a room, but with a smoothness that doesn’t fatigue your ears. Their amps were known for a distinctive sound signature – a certain fullness and richness that modern digital audio often lacks. Models like the AU-717, AU-517, and the more powerful AU-9900 are highly sought after by collectors and music lovers. But those amps are decades old now. Capacitors dry out, transistors fail, and the original components just… give up. That beautiful sound? It starts to fade. AUTUS FORTUNA: More Than Just Repair AUTUS FORTUNA doesn't just slap in new parts and call it a day. They're passionate about audio and committed to doing things right. Here's what sets them apart: Full Disassembly & Cleaning: Each amplifier is completely taken apart. Everything gets cleaned, inspected, and assessed. This isn't a quick fix – it’s a deep dive into the heart of the machine. They literally get into every nook and cranny. Component Upgrades (Optional): While they can restore amps to original specifications, AUTUS FORTUNA also offers optional upgrades using modern, high-quality components. This can improve reliability, reduce noise, and even enhance the sound quality. Think better capacitors, more stable resistors, and improved transistors. They don't change the character of the amp, just make it perform better and last longer. Thorough Testing: After rebuilding, each amplifier undergoes rigorous testing to ensure it meets their high standards. They don't just turn it on and listen; they use specialized equipment to measure performance and identify any potential issues. They test everything - voltage, current, frequency response, distortion - the works. Bias Adjustment & Calibration: Proper bias adjustment is critical for optimal performance. AUTUS FORTUNA meticulously adjusts the bias to ensure the amplifier is operating at its peak. This makes a huge difference in sound quality and minimizes distortion. Focus on Originality (When Desired): For collectors who want to preserve the original character of their amplifier, AUTUS FORTUNA can perform a completely faithful restoration using original or NOS (New Old Stock) parts. They understand the importance of maintaining the vintage integrity for those who want a truly authentic experience. What Kind of Sansui Amps Do They Work On? Pretty much any of them!
