I have recently received a Channel Master or (Sanyo) Model 6601 Integrated amplifier and I plan on resurrecting this nice old piece of audio gear as it is all there. It is in great shape with all the tubes installed. I have not yet powered it on but plan to on my Variac sometime into the future as well as replace any or all bad caps. I have a SAM for the unit but no owner's manual. I have searched and searched (HIFI Engine) and other sites but have not been able to locate one and was hoping that someone here may have one they would be willing to share or know where I could locate one. Thank You in advance for your help.

Maybe I saw too many back in the day but, why do you need an Owner's Manual? What is not clear?
That added switching behind the tone knobs: leave it at RIAA, or change to taste.

Never seen this side of the Atlantic but it's pretty, it looks like a mix of lots of other amps.
Are there any particularities or is it rather standard?

It is rather standard, not much info out there on this unit that I was able to find. I did see a few out there that were rebuilt and opinions that it sounded really good. It is in some ways similar to an H.H. Scott 299 of the same era (The pinnacle of int amps of the time). (I have a 299 and love it) It's a handsome integrated amp and based on the tube compliment guessing it runs around 15 to 20 watts PCH and will keep my mind and hands busy this winter as I try to resurrect it. Thank You for your interest and reply
I got one! In amazing shape. I have to change some tubes and work on the power tranformers. But... its now 100% working, zero noise, clean and warm sound... the phono valve pre amp is very good... I think it uses all of the five 12Ax7 for phono pre amp function.
Its a one of a kind... i will send some pictures.
