In Reply to: RE: Have any you guys ever seen one of these Sansui BA5000s? posted by Michael Samra on November 23, 2014 at 00:03:08
and I've compared it to the McIntosh MC 7200 that I also had at that time. Sound wise I thought they were about the same, but, I would give the nod to Sansui when it comes to liquidity. However, both of them ran out of steam in hurry while driving the Theil CS 3.6 speakers at 4 ohms impedance.

Of course the 7200 doesn't have the autoformers but the 7270 does..If the Thiel 3.6s ran out with the 7200 which can really bang out some cajones at 1 ohm,your speakers must have a very vicious curve in the sub 30hz region.

power amplifiers that don't have a robust power supplies. Having said that, the Krell KSA 250 and ARC D-250 drive it without any difficulties and then some.Thiel CS3.6: Three-way, passive radiator-loaded (reflex), floorstanding loudspeaker.
