Kenwood Stereo Receiver Repair

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 bought the stereo receiver for the price and Sony name

I'd been looking for a stereo receiver to incorporate with my existing sound system and this Tree Receiver fit the bill.

i bought this stereo Receiver to replace my old receiver that i gave to my son i was looking for something that used just two speakers and maybe i could connect my sub woofer to it this was the one i could afford plus sony makes good products so i bought this on and i really like it

This case is great. Unfortunately a button on one of my two Sennheiser ENG receivers got squished in my camera bag a few months ago. I had to send the receiver in for repairs. Now this case has all of the pre-cut spaces for my wireless microphone gear so I don't have to worry about accidentally breaking something and doing without it during the repair work. Wish I had this case 6 months ago. I could have saved the receiver repair for half of the cost and had all of my wireless items stored in one place.

This receiver has revitalized my 1980s stereo system by allowing Bluetooth transfer from my Sony Walkman (CD quality) and from an iPhone. When powered the receiver goes into pairing mode--your device remembers this receiver...you are connected. So far there has been no problem with connection or distance from the receiver. As this is my second unit (first attached to another stereo system) I only wish I could rename the unit as it comes up with the same name...only to be identified by the Bluetooth address. If you only have one of these, this will not be an issue. Attachment is simple: connect using RCA supplied cord to your receiver aux input. Having it on a switched plug on the receiver is very convenient. If not, you would have to push the light button to switch it into on mode. It has an auto off after a few minutes of not receiving a signal. It also has an optical connection.

These speakers are great for the new stereo receiver. the whole thing was easy to set up. The sound is terrific.
