Hi Folks:

I recently bought a 2nd Sansui AU-717 integrated amplifier on Ebay. The seller is a great guy, very knowledgeable. I thought I would post some of his work, and also some Info on how to pack audio equipment properly:

I'm impressed with his packing efforts. The word that came to mind upon viewing his pictures was "cradled". BF, thanks for sharing.

I just bought an AU717 two weeks ago, and had the cover off last weekend to clean a bad switch. Scared the crud out of me! Luckily I was able to get enough stuff in whatever switch was bad, so it works OK now. I have neither the knowledge, patience, or finesse to tackle a job like you did. My AU719 needs to be done, and I will probably send it out. Nice work, Fred!!
