Solid State Integrated Amplifier
This professional stereo component, an integrated amplifier with unusually wide power bandwidth, says a lot about the way Japan's foremost audio only specialist meets the demanding requirements of the stereo world today. A perfect power match for the TU-7500 stereo tuner, the AU-7500 represents a significant milestone in Sansui's pursuit of excelence. Not only are these two products the most advanced of any 2-channel products ever made by Sansui, they also represent the pinnacle of the company's up-to-the-minute knowledge of audio acoustics and electronics.
The AU-7500 boasts such performance characteristics as total harmonic distortion and intermodulation distortion which has been limited to below 0,1% throughout the audio spectrum and well beyond. With its super-wide power bandwidth of 5 - 40,000 Hz, you can achieve RMS power of 43 watts into 8 ohms, along with total harmonic distortion of only 0,1%. Inside the AU-7500 are a PNP-NPN-PNP heterojunction three stage direct coupled equalizer amplifier with an input capacity of no less than 300 mV RMS resulting in such a wide dynamic range. There are also low noise PNP transistor tone control circuits and a direct coupled DCL pure complementary power amplifier employing two 6,800 μF jumbo power supply capacitors. Finally this professional amplifier is blessed with a variety of convenience features, including a 4-channel adaptor switch, the ability to connect up to three tape decks, and provisions for tape-to-tape dubbing. And in terms of tonal quality, the AU-7500 quite simply has no equal.
