About the 2000X

Manufactured between 1971 and 1973 in Japan, the Sansui 2000X is a highly regarded vintage receiver known for its solid sound quality and versatility. It features a power output of 39 watts per channel into 8 ohms stereo, a frequency response from 20Hz to 40kHz, and total harmonic distortion of 0.8%. The receiver includes two phono inputs, tape inputs and outputs, auxiliary input, and supports two pairs of loudspeakers. It has a damping factor of 24 and a signal-to-noise ratio of 70dB for MM phono and 80dB for line inputs. The unit weighs approximately 13.1 kg and measures 462 x 147 x 335 mm. It is noted for its functional front panel design, ability to handle two speaker sets simultaneously, and use of advanced FET and IC components for its time. The 2000X is praised for sounding bigger than its size and price would suggest, with features such as separate bass and treble tone controls for each speaker. It is no longer manufactured and remains a sought-after model among vintage audio enthusiasts.
