Welcome to code 9 A.V studios – Pune’s Vintage Audio Sanctuary

Step into CODE 9 A.V studios Second Loved, Pune’s most evocative destination for vintage audio lovers, where sound isn’t just heard — it’s felt, deep in the soul. More than just a store, this is a living museum of analog audio, curated with obsessive passion and precision by Sagar Gangele, a lifelong audiophile with a love for the golden era of music technology.

Every item in this remarkable collection has been handpicked, tested, and restored by Sagar himself — not from warehouses or auctions, but from years of personal travel, deep research, and a commitment to preserving the spirit of sound as it was meant to be heard.

Here, time slows down. You’re surrounded by the warm glow of wooden speaker cabinets, the satisfying mechanical hum of reel-to-reel spools, the gentle crackle of vinyl under a stylus. The store is filled with legendary, hard-to-find classics:

Sansui, with its rich, warm tones and unmatched amplifier engineering. Samsung and Datone, with their rare, early high-fidelity speaker lines. Technics, beloved for their iconic turntables.

Pioneer, Marantz, and Yamaha, whose amps and receivers defined studio-grade sound in the ’70s and ’80s.

And gems from Sony, Akai, Onkyo, and Nakamichi, brands that pushed boundaries in tape deck design, recording fidelity, and speaker clarity.

At Second Loved, every turntable spins a story. Every spool carries the soul of a forgotten session. Every speaker sings a note of nostalgia. Whether you’re a seasoned vinyl collector, a vintage audio enthusiast, or simply someone chasing the emotion of a beautifully imperfect analog sound, this space invites you to explore, experience, and fall in love with music all over again.

So come in. Turn the dial. Drop the needle. And let Second Loved reconnect you with a sound that’s not just heard — it’s lived.
