Sansui SAX 800

Sansui Solid State 800

1 9 6 8 1968
1 9 7 1 1971

Part of the manymany Sansui receivers, the 800 was, for once, also available in Japan as well under the then-common SAX prefix : SAX 800.

FM
3-gang FET front-end, 4-stage IF section, 3-stage limiter, "new" noise-canceller, automatic FM stereo/mono switching, MPX separation pot (back) and ceramic IF filters for the AM section.

Pre-main
SEPP Darlington output stage, R-type tone controls in the flat amp, short-free speaker terminals and quick-acting fuses protection.

Optional wood enclosure.
