Kenwood Stereo Cassette Receiver

This uncomplicated Stereo Receiver does exactly what I bought it for; recording from old cassette tapes, vinyl, and CDs onto my laptop. From there, I can burn consolidated CDs or transfer to my smartphone or tablet. Discriminating audio buffs might wish for more tone control, but I really appreciate the simplicity of operation. Great FM too, even in our poor reception area.

The best stereo receiver I’ve ever owned! If you want the best, this is it!

This stereo receiver was one of my better online purchases!

My (very old) Kenwood 'KM-106' stereo power amp. finally bit the dust. And although my desktop PC is kitted with full-range speakers plus a sub-woofer, the music played thereon still lacked the depth and 'punch' that I enjoy. Enter the A-S501, it has enabled me to once again enjoy a full sound in my library/den - and blends in well with its 30+ year old compatriots q;~). Also, since it has a 'pure direct' audio option, I don't bemoan that I cannot connect my equalizer and reverb. And although shipping to Bermuda, plus local import duty took my purchase a little over-budget, it is money well spent. (N.B. - not everything on the rack is connected)

I use it to connect my tape deck to the stereo receiver.

I have an old bookshelf stereo system (3 CD player, cassette, and radio) at my summer home. The speakers still put out a beautiful sound so I connect the Bluetooth adapter and am now able to play music from my phone, iTunes, Pandora, etc. A terrific value!

This cassette player will run through your stereo system. It has a usb hook up should you want to do some work on your computer. Buy it now and listen to your best cassette tapes. The price has been reduced I think because everyone is gone to cd but that can cost an awful lot, buy this a listen away.

I use the Pyle PT-659DU dual stereo cassette deck to digitize my self made cassette tapes which are quite old. I bought this unit because my old deck was exactly that. It was over 30 years old and B&H was recommended by an radio station engineer. The things I like about are the dual deck. I do not like the buttons on the unit as they seem to be cheaply put together. All in all, I greatly appreciate this product.

I bought the stereo receiver for the price and Sony name

Receiver is a great fit for both older Audio Components and most-modern ones, as well. I have my Turntable, Cassette Player, Disc Player--all plugged into the Receive and it sounds great with my older Speakers. Additionally, with iPod and Bluetooth Inputs, it's as modern as today.
