HISTORY:
Once again I am back at the 'operating table' and my patient today is the SANSUI D-M7 Cassette deck.
Another sad case of user abuse, the case top section was badly marked and in fact this rendered the machine pretty unsightly and unattractive to a new owner. I couldn't locate a spare top section for this machine in my mountain of 'bits & pieces' and as the machine was working fine, I decided to pull out various 'organs' that I know from past experience others may need for their own machines.
I do like SANSUI gear although I am not so fond of the later equipment (this machine was produced in the early 1980's) where considerable cost cutting was undertaken, mainly in the cosmetics such as the faux metal front panel (plastic coated with an Aluminium finish). Nice solid steel chassis though, except the top cover which bends (and marks) quite easily!
So here is one of the parts I have extracted from the 'patient' ... R.I.P
SANSUI (JAPAN) - Single Cassette Deck (Spare Part)
Model: D-M7
PART: L3 panel holders (4)
These are located in each corner of the rear panel and are used for attaching the optional L3 turntable stand.
The L3 is used when placing the A-M7 amplifier and T-M7 tuner on top of this cassette deck, then the P-M7 turntable sits right at the top of everything
COSMETIC CONDITION:
USED
CLEAN
NO physical damage to any of the panel holders
The screws are also supplied (these holders screw into the rear metalwork)
This set of L3 panel holders is now packed within a sealed clear plastic pack
