OPERATIONS
Congratulations, you are now the owner of a new Sansui AU-101
control amplifier manufactured by Sansui, the world’s forem ost audio-
only specialist.
The AU-101 incorporates many of state-of-the-art features of the
more powerful Sansui AU-555A, including an all silicon solid state
design, professional arrangement of controls and a satin-black control

has been perfected and proved not only by precision electronic meas-
uring instruments, but also by repeated listening tests in a wide variety
