A relative of mine knows that I am interested in stuff like this so when someone was throwing away their old working receiver she took it. So it cost me nothing. Have not had the time to pick it up yet, but she did send me a picture which I will post later. It is a Sansui 3300. Not a lot of info out there on this particular model. From my friend google...it was manufactured in 1970, or 1991 depending on the source...and it puts out 26-90 watts per channel. Also, according to google, it is a stereo receiver, or a quad, or from one source a tape deck. Checked AK but still not much info. Anyone here have any ideas?post #6410 of 162201/12/13 at 4:54pmpost #6411 of 162201/13/13 at 10:21am

I owned one and it was OK for a receiver. The Pioneer SX650 is mus]ch more music]ical IMO but the Marantz is powerful enough to handle full range speakers but the bigger ones would work better with 80-100W receivers IMO.post #6415 of 162201/15/13 at 10:14am
Toshiba SA-775, $65, everything is there and seems to function. It is local. Balance is off. Worth a purchase or not?post #6416 of 162201/15/13 at 12:00pm
So I didn't get the Toshiba, but if someone thinks it is worth it I still might. I don't think it is going anywhere. I did pick up the pair of Realistic Optimus 5 for $45 just out of vintage curiousity and the fact that they looked like they are in very good mechanical shape and are supposed to sound okay. Not turning this into a speaker thread it is just that the new to me SX-650 is sitting on top of them right now while I clean and arrange the room for speakers/receiver(the reason for abysmal placement). Got the SX-650 and an SX-780 for $260 as a pair. The 650 has been serviced and cleaned and someone put a new wood case on it, although the stain is too light to be original it does look very nice and I have no plans to change it. The 780 does work, but I haven't played with it yet. There are a couple of little places where the veneer is peeling a little at the corners. Did try the LCD-2 through the headphone out of the 650 listening to FM radio...something I haven't had in the house in a decade excluding an alarm clock. Have not played with, or even picked up the Sansui 3300 yet but hey it was free. Here is an over exposed pick of the 650, not trying to get a better picture until the room is arranged and I find my actual camera:post #6417 of 162201/16/13 at 1:19am

Mystery of the disappearing Eskimos: Analysis suggests first Arctic inhabitants may have been wiped out by inbreeding and climate change
- Research led by the University of Copenhagen provides new theories as to the disappearance of Paleo-Eskimos
- This group, the first inhabitants of the Arctic, disappeared 700 years ago
- Their extinction is a mystery, as they vanished in mere decades
- This disappearance coincides with their descendants arriving in the Arctic
- They may have been driven out by technologically superior people
- Their food sources may also have dwindled as temperatures changed
- And extensive inbreeding could have caused a number of medical problems
Across the Arctic region 700 years ago, the last of the Paleo-Eskimos disappeared, ultimately being replaced by ancestors of the modern-day Inuit and Eskimo cultures.
Exactly what happened to this group of people, known as the Dorset culture, has remained a mystery.
But now extensive research suggests this remaining group may have been wiped out due to a combination of inbreeding and climate change, ultimately perishing in isolation while the other groups lived on.
Research led by the University of Copenhagen provides new theories as to how the first inhabitants of the Arctic disappeared 700 years ago, which coincided with descendants of modern-day Inuits and Eskimos arriving (stock image shown). Their extinction is shrouded in mystery, as they vanished in mere decades
The research, headed by the Centre for Geogenetics at the Natural History Museum of Denmark, University of Copenhagen, was published in the journal Science.
The North American Arctic was one of the last major regions to be settled by modern humans.
This happened when people crossed the Bering Strait from Siberia and wandered into a new world.
While the area has long been well researched by archaeologists, little is known of its genetic prehistory.
In this study, researchers showed that the Paleo-Eskimo, who lived in the Arctic from about 5,000 years ago until about 700 years ago, represented a distinct wave of migration, separate from both Native Americans - who crossed the Bering Strait much earlier - and the Inuit, who came from Siberia to the Arctic several thousand years after the Paleo-Eskimos.
The genetic studies show that the Paleo-Eskimos - representing one single group - were the first people in the Arctic, and they survived without outside contact for over 4,000 years.
But, after surviving in near-isolation in the harsh Arctic environment for more than 4,000 years, they disappeared around 700 years ago - about the same time when the ancestors of modern-day Inuit spread eastward from Alaska.
The genetic study, which involved more than 150 human remains, claims that Paleo-Eskimos were the first people in the Arctic - and they survived without outside contact for more than 4,000 years.
However the arrival of the ancestors of modern-day Inuits, around 1500 AD, is said to have forced the Paleo-Eskimos into a mass-migration that ultimately led to their demise in just a matter of decades
In the research they obtained 26 genome-wide sequences and 169 mitochondrial DNA sequences from ancient human bone, teeth, and hair samples from Arctic Siberia, Alaska, Canada and Greenland.
They also examined genomes of two present-day Greenlandic Inuit, two Siberian Nivkhs, one Aleutian Islander, and two Athabascan Native Americans.
Twenty-seven ancient samples were then radiocarbon dated for accurate cultural assignment.
The research rejects previous theories that Paleo-Eskimos were descendants of native Americans.
The conclusion is that their disappearance was not due to them being assimilated into other cultures like the Thule people, who arrived at the Arctic later.
In the research they obtained 26 genome-wide sequences and 169 mitochondrial DNA sequences from ancient human bone, teeth, and hair samples from Arctic Siberia, Alaska, Canada and Greenland. Pictured are Greenlandic Inuits from the 1930s in their traditional boats (umiaq), used for hunting and transportation
But while some conclusions can be ruled out, the exact cause of their extinction remains somewhat shrouded in mystery.
According to Joshua Krisch of the New York Times, one of the reasons for their disappearance could have been inbreeding.
'Certainly they survived for almost 5,000 years, so they weren't completely destroyed by inbreeding,' Dr Eske Willerslev, who led the study, told the New York Times.
'But it causes a number of medical problems, and I wouldn't be surprised if that had an effect on them.'
And Dr Todd Disotell, a professor of anthropology at New York University, added that the harsh tundra life coupled with the effects of climate change, namely dwindling food sources as the temperature shifted, would have contributed to their extinction.
'When you're dealing with sea ice, just a few degrees can be transformative,' Dr. Disotell said.
'Three bad winters in a row where you can't hunt seals, and you're in trouble.'
The extinction of Paleo-Eskimos in mere decades is a mystery. It's thought they may have been driven out by technologically superior people. Their food sources may also have dwindled as temperatures changed due to climate change. Pictured is a researcher looking for ancient human remains in northern Greenland
However there is still more research to be done into their disappearance.
The study was unable to establish why the extinction of the Paleo-Eskimos coincided with the ancestors of the Inuit beginning to colonise the Arctic.
It's widely believed that the Inuit ancestors - who crossed the Bering Strait about 1,000 years ago and reached Greenland around 700 years ago - were technologically superior to the Paleo-Eskimos, which may have led to them being driven out.
The Inuit's own myths tell stories of a people before them, which likely refer to the Paleo-Eskimos.
In the myths, they are referred to as the 'Tunit' or 'Sivullirmiut', which means 'the first inhabitants'.
According to these myths they were giants, who were taller and stronger than the Inuit, but easily frightened from their settlements by the newcomers.
Genetic studies show that the Paleo-Eskimos were the first people in the Arctic, and they survived without outside contact for over 4,000 years. But, after surviving in near-isolation for so long, they disappeared around 700 years ago. Pictured is a site of the Dorset culture, the last of the Paleo-Eskimos
'Ever since the discovery of a Paleo-Eskimo culture in the North American Arctic in 1925, archaeologists have been mystified by their relationship with the Thule culture ancestors of the modern Inuit,' said co-author Dr William Fitzhugh from the Arctic Studies Centre at the Smithsonian Institution.
'Paleo-Eskimo culture was replaced rapidly around 1300 and 1400 AD, their only traces being references to 'Tunit' in Inuit mythology and adoption of some elements of Dorset technology.
'This new genomic research settles outstanding issues in Arctic archaeology that have been debated for nearly a century, finding that Paleo-Eskimo and Neo-Eskimo people were genetically distinct, with separate origins in Eastern Siberia, and the Paleo-Eskimo remained isolated in the Eastern Arctic for thousands of years with no significant mixing with each other or with American Indians, Norse, or other Europeans,' continued Dr Fitzhugh.
The lack of inbreeding with other species is surprising, as many species of human have been known to mingle in this way in the past.
In fact, it is thought that Neanderthals were gradually phased out through breeding with modern humans.
'Elsewhere, as soon as people meet each other, they have sex,' Willerslev told National Geographic.
'Even potentially different species like Neanderthals [and modern humans] had sex, so this finding is extremely surprising.'

Keep your eyes out for surveyors and win some specs.
The Mountain Bike Tourism Association, in conjunction with municipal partners and Destination British Columbia, will be conducting an economic impact study with mountain bikers this summer in Squamish, Pemberton, and the North Shore (Whistler collected their data in 2015). This study was last conducted in 2006 and showed mountain biking in the Sea to Sky corridor was worth $26.5 million. We are expecting a lot has changed over the past 10 years! Data will be used to demonstrate the value of #mtb to each community and will help trail groups get support for trail building and maintenance. How can you help? Watch for surveyors on the trails from June to September and complete the survey, if asked. Everyone who participates has a chance to win some cool riding gear from Rocky Mountain Bicycles. Thanks in advance! :)

"Definitely a nice play to stay affordably for 4-people in Vienna. It's off the 7A bus and maybe a 10-minute walk to the U1 stop (furthest one south), so it isn't the most central of locations. All-in-all, I would stay again."

Rocky Mountain News: Bonds bombs away for Giants
Can Barry Bonds be stopped? He hit numbers 61-62-63 yesterday at Coors Field. He has to hit eight homers in his last eighteen games to break McGwire's record.

If you base Barry's chances to catch or beat McGwire based on what he has done all year, he will hit 71. If you base your guess on what he has done over the last 18 Giants' games, he will hit 73.2. Big Ed Posted: September 10, 2001 at 09:50 PM (#72557)
But what is so tough to figure is how teams will pitch to Bonds. There are quite a few managers out there - including most of those the Giants still have to play - who prefer to walk Barry 3 times per game. That terribly limits his at-bats.
Bonds has hit one home run for every 6.78 at-bats this season. I think it's quite likely he will finish the season hitting home runs at that pace or better.
So the question remains, how many at-bats will Barry get? Bonds has gotten 3.16 AB's for every game he has played, this season. But with only games left against Houston and NL West foes, I think Bonds will average onl6 2.5 AB's per game for the Giants' last 18 contests. That translates to 45 more at-bats for Barry.
If he homers once every 6.78 at-bats, that means that Bonds will hit 6.637 more home runs. That is, he finishes with either 69 or 70. My guess is he ends with 70 home runs, tying Mark McGwire.
So what? McGwire didn't hit his 70th til game 163. There was a tie game past five innings which was rained out and replayed. This was cited in the Chicago Tribune over the weekend.3. RichRifkin Posted: September 11, 2001 at 12:11 AM (#72560)
I'm rooting for Barry Bonds to break the record. But my recollection is that Mark McGwire actually hit 71*. About a week before the close of the 1998 campaign, McGwire hit a home run in County Stadium in Milwaukee that a fan caught. The 2nd base umpire - not Eric Gregg - huffed and puffed and ran out into left-center field to determine if the ball cleared the fence. The mistaken umpire ruled that the fan reached into the field of play, and so he gave McGwire a ground-rule double. Television replays, however, clearly showed that the umpire was wrong, that the ball cleared the fence before the fan caught the ball.4. Currey Posted: September 18, 2001 at 04:19 PM (#72561)
I was at that game in Milwaukee (I won't ever forget the fans taunting Mark Little in RF with "You bat last.") The more interesting thing about the called back home run was that it prevented McGwire from getting the NL record for slugging percentage in a season. I believe Hornsby still has that for now.

Misunderstood - The Brian Molko Storyby Chloe Govan
Misunderstood looks behind the eyeliner to reveal the true story of one of the most notorious rock icons of the 21st century. Follow the reckless wild child turned devoted father as he replaces drug binges and erotic exploits with Buddhist meditation and kids' birthday parties. He's battled bipolar disorder, clinical depression, drug and alcohol addiction, loneliness and self-loathing to sell over ten million albums worldwide with the rock group Placebo.
Combining punk rock anthems with designer dresses, the singer set out to prove he's far more than 'just another nancy boy.' He describes his music as both 'a transvestite on crystal meth' and 'cocktail hour at the mental hospital' - it's going to be a bumpy ride.
Alongside quotes from the singer himself are exclusive interviews featuring Brian in the words of those who knew him best. Described as everything from a fallen angel to a brutal rock-star thug, this book looks beyond the well-worn 'drug crazed sex-dwarf' connotations to discover just why Brian Molko is so misunderstood.

GRANBURY (CBSDFW.COM) – As much as six to eight inches of rain fell on Granbury and surrounding areas on Sunday. Flooding of a usually dry creek in the Quail Ridge subdivision blocked the only street connecting the west end of the neighborhood.
"I didn't even think it was going to rain today," said Gavin Hayward as he waited for hours for the water to recede so he could return to his home.
Flood waters damaged several homes in the Quail Ridge neighborhood.
Mark Swan was in San Angelo when a neighbor called to tell him his Hood County home was flooded.
When he made it back home, Swan found the flood waters had crushed his swimming pool, dislodged his hot tube, and sent his boat downstream.
When he built his home 14 years ago, Swan said he was told it would never flood like it did Sunday.
"I thought this would never happen here," he said. "Never say never."

A report released today by Blackbaud (NASDAQ: BLKB) found that nonprofits could potentially improve their fundraising returns by better aligning with donors' giving preferences and increasing transparency. The new report, Donor Perspectives: An investigation into what drives your donors to give, is based on survey results from more than 4,000 donors in the United States, United Kingdom and Australia.
"The donors have spoken! Nonprofits are not always meeting their needs, and are leaving valuable donations on the table," said Dennis McCarthy, Blackbaud's vice president of strategy. "The good news is, by making it easier for donors to learn about their organization, keeping them informed about their donation's impact and providing multiple methods for donating, nonprofits can potentially improve their fundraising."
The report provides a view of the nonprofit sector from the donor perspective and compares results from Blackbaud's recently-released 2012 State of the Nonprofit Industry report (SONI), which gauged levels of nonprofit optimism and explored successful management strategies.
In all three countries, there was a relationship between donation preferences and the average annual contributions donors made to charities over the past year, suggesting that nonprofits should keep donor preferences in mind and ensure donors are easily able to contribute in various ways.
Donations hold steady
According to the Donor Perspectives report, approximately 25 percent of donors from each country reported that the amount they donated to charity increased from the previous year. US donors were primarily motivated by a change in their financial situation while donors in the UK and Australia cited an innate desire to help. On average, US respondents reported donating nearly three times as much to charity as UK or Australia donors.
One-off donations vs. regular donations
One-off donations (which are not scheduled to repeat) are very popular with 80 percent of respondents reporting making a one-off donation to at least one charity in the last year as donors continue to be burdened with financial uncertainty. Roughly two-thirds of respondents from each country reported making regular, or recurring automatic donations, in the past year.
Of the respondents that would consider becoming regular donors, the top three motivating factors were reported to be: 1) having an improvement in their personal financial situation, 2) having a passion for an organization's mission, and 3) having access to information that proved the impact of their contributions.
Many respondents (20 to 30 percent) reported that they had stopped making regular donations to an organization in the past three years citing their financial situation and lack of transparency on the charity's part.
"While personal finances greatly contribute to donor decisions about regular donations, charities can take steps to retain and attract these valuable donors," said McCarthy. "By tracking the impact of contributions and communicating that back to donors, nonprofits can increase the number of regular donors and ensure they are not losing the donors they have."
On average, in all three countries, as the number of charities to which donors made regular donations increased, so did the total amount of financial contributions.
For US respondents, as the number of charities to which they gave one-time donations increased, the average amount of financial contributions made in the last year also increased. This trend was not present for UK and Australian nonprofits, indicating that donors there tend to stick to a preset budget, unless they give to five or more charities.
Importance of mobile
In each country, nearly half of donors reported using their mobile phone to read emails and view websites, yet less than one-quarter of donors in each country reported using their device to make donations via mobile browser or text. Still, donors (especially younger donors) are embracing mobile technologies faster than nonprofits, according to the SONI report. The projected growth of the use of mobile technologies in marketing efforts, however, indicates that nonprofits have recognized the need to embrace mobile strategies and plan on doing so in the next year.
Age and culture greatly influence preferred donation method:
- In the US, 43 percent of donors prefer to give by check, while 23 percent of donors prefer to donate with a credit/debit card. Cash donations ranked low on the list in the US at 18 percent.
- On average, total annual donations tended to increase as the age group increased. In the US, the 65+ age group gave an average of $1,403 in the last year, with the 45-54 age group close behind with an average annual donation of $1,396. US donors in the 18-24 age range donated the least annually at $463.
- UK and Australian donors prefer to give cash, yet only one percent of Australian and seven percent of UK nonprofits preferred to receive cash donations. The preference to donate via cash significantly decreased with age for donors from all countries. UK respondents were more than twice as like to prefer to donate via direct debit from a bank account, correlating with the high number of regular givers there and the most preferred method of nonprofits. Australian donors were twice as likely as UK respondents to prefer to donate via credit/debit card, while nearly half of nonprofits reported that as their preference.

In addition to the Blackbaud donor report, Blackbaud partner Charity Dynamics also released the Nonprofit Donor Engagement Benchmark Study today. The report, produced in collaboration with NTEN, identifies similar trends around donor engagement, including how different age groups donate to and prefer to interact with the charities they support. The full Charity Dynamics/NTEN donor engagement study is available at www.nonprofitdonorengagement.com.
Survey Methodology
Blackbaud engaged an international market research panel to reach charitable donors in the United States, United Kingdom and Australia. The survey was open for a two week period in July and August 2012. More than 4,000 donors responded to the survey – 1,321 donors from the US, 1,436 donors from the UK, and 1,576 donors from Australia – representing a wide range of ages, income levels, and education levels. The results of this study have a +/-3 margin of error at a 95% confidence level.

PROVO — The Humane Society of Utah is increasing its reward for information leading to a conviction of a suspect in the torture of several cats around Provo over the past month.
The group is now offering a $5,000 reward, up from the $3,000 reward announced last week.
Provo police say the first incident involved four cats that had been bound with tape, strangled with rope or wire and burned. A few of the animals had been laid on the railroad tracks to be decapitated or cut in half.
Police say two more dead cats recently turned up in the same area.
Investigators think someone is trapping the animals.
At least one of the cats was someone's pet. It's not clear if the others were strays or had homes.

Shumlin wants 10 hired to oversee Irene work
Toby Talbot / AP Photo FEMA federal coordinating officer Mark Landry speaks at a summit on Tropical Storm Irene recovery Friday in Northfield. At right is Vermont's Irene recovery officer, Sue Minter.
NORTHFIELD Gov. Peter Shumlin wants to hire 10 short-term workers to oversee the repair or rebuilding of homes damaged by flooding from Tropical Storm Irene, officials said Friday.
The states outgoing Irene recovery officer, Sue Minter, announced the $260,000 proposal at a daylong conference at Norwich University focusing on the August 2011 storm.
The 10 positions that would last for 5½ months are needed because federal funding for similar positions has begun to expire and there are still hundreds of damaged or destroyed homes that need to be repaired or replaced, Minter said.
There are national organizations that do disaster response, Minter said. They come with labor, they come with money, and they actually come and rebuild homes.
She said one recovery organization was ready to bring hundreds of volunteers to Vermont in June if the state can be ready for them.
Fridays conference drew about 130 officials from across Vermont who have been working to put the state back together after the worst natural disaster in almost a century.
This announcement today about these 10 positions being funded by the state is golden, said Peter Edlund, a construction analyst for a community action group who has been working on Irene recovery since shortly after the storm. This buys us the people from here to the finish line and now we can really dig in and finish what we have started.
Minter and Edlund estimate about 300 housing projects still need to be completed. They range from rebuilding homes completely to minor renovation projects. The construction coordinators could help ensure those projects are ready when volunteer groups, or others, are ready to do the work.
Edlund said he hoped the recovery could be substantially complete by the second anniversary of Irene in August.
The conference had workshops that ranged from coordinating communication among recovery workers to fundraising to a workshop on compassion fatigue.
The Rev. John Wheeler, a pastor from Warwick, R.I., a member of his states Voluntary Organizations Active in Disaster, a group that helps coordinate disaster response by volunteer groups, said compassion fatigue is a phenomenon when people who help victims of disasters can suffer variations of post-traumatic stress disorder that victims themselves can suffer.
Its something first responders, emergency telephone operators, social workers and anyone else who deals with disaster victims can suffer from, Wheeler said.
We all just thought, well, this is just part of the job and you need to just suck it up. Not so not so at all, Wheeler said.
When you get involved in other peoples lives you will get hurt, because you care. You have empathy. The key is controlling the hurt and dealing with it.MORE IN Vermont NewsMONTPELIER The United Kingdoms surprise referendum result last week to withdraw from the...
