Re: I does not take alot of money! A poor mans system..

63.98.74.2

Well, it is a reciever and it is not. I have disconectoed the amp section from the preamp by pulling the jumpers, so really it is like a stand alone amp right now. The amp is getting the signal from a passive preap(really a volume control knob).

The Sansui reciever was rated at 125wpc(more like 135wpc) into 8ohms, I do't know what it translates into 4ohms but it seems to do the trick and the old thing seems to be able to handle the load. I am sure that there are better amps to drive them with and I ecpect that some day the old beast will give out and I will begin another search.

I do not use the FM portion of the reciever since the preamp is disconected. The FM tuner was decent but like I said the preamp(maybe just the volume pot?)had a problem getting the full signal to both channels. I have no quams about listening to FM, my problem is with most of the programing. I am interested at this point is finding a way to connect a computer to the stereo so that I can use the many thousands of internet radio programing out there.

Thanks for you suport and for responding.
