The Sansui RG-710 Sales Brochure!If you had a big Stereo system back in the 80's & 90's, you needed to have a separate equalizer to impress your friends and to fashion the sound to your liking. (Today equalization is mostly done with software.) Yes, even back then I liked lights, sliders, visual color displays, etc. Among the many units on the market was the Sansui Stereo Graphic Equalizer RG- 710. This came into the marketplace around 1983-84. It was not only an equalizer, but a reverb unit, and a dynamic processor. The Sansui RG-710 was one of the most elaborate analog processors you could buy for your home audio system! The built-in "Multi-Dimension" processor featured a 7-band graphic stereo EQ for the main audio signals. Then there was a built in electronic analog reverb unit. But wait, there’s more! The Reverb Depth control had a multi-color display that looked 3D-like. And it had it’s own 5-band graphic for varying the reverb sound. And then – yes, more! There was another separate 5-band graphic tape/video equalizer! I can’t remember what the list price was, but I think I paid about $240 for it. If for some bizarre reason you want one, there was one on Ebay recently for $18! It just may still be there!
