Sansui G-2200
Almost nothing is documented about the Sansui G-2200. No specifications, production years, or design details appear in any of the usual service manuals, period catalogs, or collector databases. The model exists in name only.
The only possible contemporary mention is a confusing one. In a 1978 comparison table, Audio (August 1978, p.115) and HiFi-Stereo (July 1978, p.129) both list a "Sansui G22000" - with an extra zero - priced at $1,250 and rated at 220 watts RMS into 8 ohms. It sits alongside the Pioneer SX-1980 and Marantz 2600. Nobody knows if this is a typo for the G-2200 or a distinct, even more obscure model. No corroborating evidence for a G-2200 or G22000 has surfaced.
If the G-2200 existed as a production receiver, it would have belonged to Sansui's G-series of the late 1970s, a line known for hefty power supplies and clean build quality. There isn't enough to confirm its place in the lineup.
