DON'T Ever Do This

Someone re-covered an old Sansui 5050. Good receiver but very ugly

Looky here.

To each their own I guess.

I guess so, I think it looks great! :shifty: (hope they allowed for cooling)

The original cover on the Sansui 5050 does not have ventilation openings. The receiver only pushes 30 watts per channel into 8 ohms. Apparently the owner of that particular receiver re-covered it to make it match her cat. I found that photo on a Facebook group called "Vintage Hi-Fi and Stereo Equipment."

to make it match her cat.

It's not hard to do but why the cat? I mean cats don't last as long as typical receivers do... :roll: What happens when that cat passes? Let me guess, she will look for another one with similar pattern. :think:

I don't try to figure out the mind of a nut job and neither should you. My receiver matches my cat too but that is because they both are black. No mods needed.
