Celebrating the golden age of stereo
The sound of a generation
The late 60’s to the early 80’s was a significant period of innovation for both music and sound reproduction. Mass market stereos from Sansui, Pioneer, Marantz and others competed on sound quality, construction, innovation and design. Properly restored stereos from that era perform comparably to high end modern amplifiers at a fraction of the cost and a look that is unavailable today. San Diego Solid State is dedicated to the preservation of systems from this era so they can be enjoyed for many decades to come.

Perfect beautiful glass for my amp,,,AMAZING seller. Audiophiles need to know these are available for our classic receivers – A+++++++
Easy installation, it fit and looks good.
I was in the market for a refurbished amp to add to my collection. Buying a truly refurbished amp can be a bit of a challenge as you often don’t know what/how the amp was refurbished and hence you don’t know what you’re really getting. However, this seller provided a photo of the dozens of parts he replaced along with a web link describing the details. The amp was promptly shipped and arrived securely packed. It looks and operates wonderfully. I highly recommend this seller!
This is a seller who takes tremendous care in the packing and shipping of items. Very fair price, fast and courteous service … I’m a big fan!
