Technics SU-V60

A mid-tier integrated amplifier from Technics' late-1980s V-series. It has a Class A/B output stage, modest power and the familiar Technics black-faceplate styling of the era.

Overview

The SU-V60 sits in Technics' value-priced integrated amplifier lineup, below the Class AA SU-A700-series flagships. The output stage is conventional Class A/B and the power supply is modest. The controls are the standard set of the era: bass/treble tone, balance, source selector and tape monitors.

The sound is typical Technics - clean, somewhat polite, well-controlled. Not exciting, but reliable. It sold widely in the late-1980s mid-fi market and is still a common find on the used market.
