Fairly well known on QQ. Since the SM does not use these chips the reason why you have a quantity of these could be most interesting.We have the Sansui chips!

Well, yes, but what does that have to do with Sansui Vario-Matrix chips?R&D
Rumors are flying that Involve is working on a CD-4 Demodulator, my sources are private so can't say more.
Any road luvs...
My guess is in that they were used in the research and development process. They could have gotten a deal on buying them in quantity.Fairly well known on QQ. Since the SM does not use these chips the reason why you have a quantity of these could be most interesting.
Years ago people were asking for this. Chucky seemed open to the idea. I don't think that it would be a money maker though. A very complex design and a very limited market. It would be cool if it happens though. The last attempt at a modern demodulator was from Lou Doran but sadly he passed on.R&D

Robert Kyle. We exchanged letters in the 80's when I was in Charlottesville at UVA. I was building the Popular Electronics decoder at the time among other things and you advised me on changing the fixed resistors to variable to fine tune it. I frequently mention your name when I'm talking about quad to new people. Or if I'm telling the story about buying the QS encoder when I toured KM Records in Burbank that summer Didn't know you were still around.Yes. Yet another part of me exposed on the Interweb. Do I know you from a previous life? If so I apologize for what ever it was I did...
Hi SonikWell, yes, but what does that have to do with Sansui Vario-Matrix chips?
The good ol BC337 will do fineWell hello there...
View attachment 85441I guess if it is truely is a transistor, one of these two guys doesn't like my SQ Mike Oldfield albums.
Which means I'm probably looking for one of each of these:

Cheers! Sounds like that could save me a lot of searching. I suppose the F and G suffixes are some kind of gain rating or something? Will the BC337 be a good sub for both?The good ol BC337 will do fine
OK for pin compatibility try this lot:Cheers! Sounds like that could save me a lot of searching. I suppose the F and G suffixes are some kind of gain rating or something? Will the BC337 be a good sub for both?
And is the pinout the same, or do i have to give it some shiny new rubber trousers and cross its legs?
Nah, the BC549 is pin compatible and available everywhereFound a thread that mentioned KSC1845 as an alternative, and it seems to be ECB rather than CBE which I now see seems to be the case with BC337. But if the BC337 is a better fit from specs, I'll do crossed legs.
Sounds good! Cheers, I'll have a look!Nah, the BC549 is pin compatible and available everywhere
Why you say that? Cuz actual SQ decoders have a dozen phase shift transistors & the Sansui only one for SQ?I guess if it is truely is a transistor, one of these two guys doesn't like my SQ Mike Oldfield albums.
Perhaps those two transistors have succumbed to the new COVID Ommadawn variant....Hehe yeah I only ment that one of those transistors possibly makes my SQ program pop and crackle, preventing me from listening to Mike comfortable in SQ. Other that that, the little SQ decoding i have actually heard between the crackle has been superb. They state a 12 db separation compared to much higher figures on QS, but to be honest I'm content and very impressed indeed.
Like there isnt enough... Crises.. these daysPerhaps those two transistors have succumbed to the new COVID Ommadawn variant....
