What a nice little amplifier. I have a soft spot for Sansui, they do make nice looking and sounding products. This amp sounds much louder than the 25 watts into 8 ohms suggests. With its pair of VU meters it looks the part too.
Sweet sounding and clear, the Sansui sounds a lot better than many amplifiers of this era and the actions of the smooth and weighty volume control make is feel more expensive than it is. Three inputs and tape monitor, and can support 2 sets of speakers, means its easy to fit in with other products.
You could do a lot worse for the money.

Available in silver or black and featuring fashionable lflourescent blue LED metering he A40 was Sansui'a cheapest product in their budget range launched towards the end of 1979. Construction looked and felt cheap and sound was below average with marked sibilence being a prominent feature of the amps sound quality. It retailed for around £65 which put it up against the Denyo AU3000m at £65 and the legendary Nad 3020 at £79. Both of those amps were much better performers and the A40's chief strength was its ready availability at Dixons and Boots high street branches. By comparison the Denyo was very difficult to find and the Nad only available through Hi Fi Markets.
