Hi, all.
There is Sansui AU-AL907MRX for sale on eBay, item# 3075802245. In my knowledge, I don't know if Sansui ever mass-produced AU-Alpha907MRX. In addition to that, the photo this seller showing is not one for AU-Alpha907MRX, but one for AU-Alpha907 Limited, and this photo came from this site at http://www.sansui.us/images/AL907_Limited/al907_limited_9.jpg.
I think it's my responsibility to protect everybody in this community from being misrepresented by the information that I have provided. I'm not saying this seller is cheating or anything like that. Just I'm warning my friends in this community that what you see is NOT what you get.
If you would like to see the real AU-Alpha907MRX, please go to http://www.sansui.us/images/Issue_AU111vsAL907MR/Dsc000067_800.jpg. This is the exact model being exhibited on the NY Audio Fare in 1995 (1994?) as a prototype, not a mass produced model (wood side panels are moved on this photo). Sansui introduced this model in Japan as AU-Alpha907MR. In Europe, this model might have been called AU-907MRX.
Finally, regarding this seller's name, DANASO2004. Danaso means "let cheat" in Japanese. This might be coincidence as well. I'm just offering information I know of, and give you guys a chance for your second thought if you are considering, or already bidding on this item.
Best Regards,
Isao
