By far the most refined and advanced of all the AU series of amplifiers, the AU-9500 takes the art of sound reproduction to a new high with its uncompromising emphasis on tonal quality, operating ease, reliability and appearance.Assembled with painstaking care and with only the latest solid state circuitry, this integrated amplifier adopt...s the ultimate in amplifier design - an all stage, direct coupled OCL pure complementary parallel push-pull circuitry that delivers 75 watts per channel in continuous output into 8 ohms, 20 to 20, 000Hz, both channels driven, with total harmonic distortion of less than 0.1%.For the audiophile who refuses to accept second best, the AU-9500 offers a distinctive level of quality and perfection. From Sansui, the audio components only specialist.Since a sliver of quartz crystal (similar to that used in fine timepieces and turntables, etc) can be energized to emit a reference frequency of extremely high regularity, there's nothing quite like it for tuning accuracy. In the TU-919, the Sansui engineers have combined it with digital control for more than tuning convenience and cosmetics. Once you quartz-tune your station, the backup circuitry we've employed for the digital frequency control keeps it locked.If you are looking at this, you no doubt know how rare the AU-9500 amp is..
