Hello Everybody!!
I've got the Sansui AU-3900 amplifier, it's 2x22W...
I'm looking for the service manual, because something "strange" happend from my brother
!!
Some people sell it on net, but i don't know if any mate got it and can post it please..
Thank a lot !!

Goodmorning!!
I mean that he didn't take care and he propably sortcut the output of the amplifier!! Since then the loudspeakers "scratch" in low volume..
I wanted to measure the check points to see what's going on inside the amp, so i can change the damaged components
Thanx 🙂

Hello,
Thanks Vidalgo, i've got the schematics for the amplifier (schearching a lot at the net) for free.
I found out that if i connect a multimeter (in Volts) at the 2 possitive outputs of the amplifier, red - right & red - left i've got voltage!!
Something is wrong with the output transistors maybe..

mot on/off ,
you noted:
You can check it with ohmmeter, connected between wiper pin and ground.
If readings momentary "jumps" while turning, the potentiometer must be replaced. Sometimes cleaning also helps.

Probably, the only reason for it is defective volume control potentiometer, with loosing wiper contact.the loudspeakers "scratch" in low volume..

Hi mot on/off,
You are measuring from ground to the speaker output positive?
I don't have the schematic so here goes some general help.
If your unit has capacitor coupled outputs some DC voltage may be a little leakage that disappears when you hook up a speaker.
If your unit is standard direct coupled (no cap, no transformer), a DC voltage is very harmful to your speakers. Full range or woofers in particular. It doesn't take too many volts to kill a woofer. 4 VDC may be enough for some speakers.

Hello again!😉
If i connect the two possitive (red) outputs of the amplifier wih a multimeter, the volume ay 1~2/10 i've got AC voltage!!!
And disturtion at the tweeter!

Hi mot on/off,
Nothing wrong with low power. There are people out there that listen happily to 1 watt SET tube amps.
Nice looking unit, perfect for the bedroom or office.

Sure!
I like him a lot!
I think that it's a very fair amp!
