Default Picked up a KA 7100 Kenwood

Integrated amp for a song, less than $100 Works great and looks like a 9/10 even though it is old, works and sounds great. Thought it would be great for my oldest girl. She can connect her Techniques turn table and her Oppo to it and rock on..

Just a stock photo but mine looks every bit as good

Dave.......Congratulations on the good score. I bought a new Kenwood KA7100 many years ago and used it as a second system in the basement of my home when I lived in Portland, Oregon. The KA7100 is a good sounding integrated amplifier. I have always like the looks of Kenwood's front panel layout and controls.

Your daughter will like this amp. What a cool dad.

Nice score! I grew up listening to my brothers KA-3500 and 4 JBL 100's. Fond memories! That was (I think) the second from their top of the line 9100. Congrats. Jealous.
