Bob & I have what could best be described as a curious respect for this Technics gear. Clearly it is the ‘Class A’ amplification that is used in these amps. (For those who are not aware Class A is not something made up by technics but a method of amplifier design with the least amount of distortion. The trade off is a ‘loss’ of power which is why most amps are built to an AB specification in the hope of delivering the best of both worlds; low distortion & power.)

Not the full 70’s sound we love but probably one of the best sounds from the late 80’s/90’s. We are always amazed at how good some of the Technics equipment sounds. I sold a slightly smaller SU-X system to a friend some time ago with some English bookshelf speakers and continue to be impressed with the quality of the sound every time I hear it. I am sure every one thinks it but I am going to say it; you have to admire the bravery of the guys at Technics who decided to designate a whole range of amplifiers SU-X.
