Hi Zubin,
Can you pls give more details of the Sansui gear you want to sell. Model Nos., Condition, Expected price & some pics of them would be great.
Am sure you will get more response once you provide the info.
Would have suggested you to start a For Sale thread for the items you want to sell, but since your posts are less than the required no, am afraid you can't do so. Kindly read the rules in the 'For Sale by Owner' Thread.

Quad 306 + 4 Ohm spk = 25 W
Yesterday I did some measures with Mara 6004 :CD Dark Side otm - absolutely high volumes (there were no neighbors!) with 15 o'clock knob , ( the max is 17 hours) in the peaks had (average) : Vmax = 14 V/ch and Imax = 1.7 A, for a maximum power of almost 25 pot W/ch; I generally listen to 9:30 hours max, with my wife who's coming asking me for lower volumes.... I've to say that while the Quad 34 + 306 , that I owned for 20 yrs, with the same B&W 603 towers , and at a little lower volume, was going in protection (I had to unlock it using the back button) and also warmed up a bit on the smart front radiator, the Marantz instead was almost cold and never gone in protection.The Quad was also sounding a little harsh and with harder highs, at these levels, while the Pm 6004 has retained a good liquidity on the highs, which were still confortable...; Anyway in everydays normal cd listening, at 9:30, I get only 1 W/ch max on peaks!

The Epos EPIC 2 specs ..
Impedance 4 Ohm nominal
- Just a few thoughts.
The Epos EPIC 2
90 dB is enough sensitive speaker and can easily be driven by any amp with clean 20W or more, leave Quad 306. It will drive it like crazyhyeah:
I haven't listened to Epos but Tirtha auditioned it (with other amp, not quad) and he liked it to great extend. We share very similar taste of sound signature, so I think it might impress me too.
