    A quick search shows it's 150w, though the power ratings are a little sketchy. How does it sound?

    A lot of these ratings are at 1Khz rather than full spectrum, which always raises my eyebrows. The proof is in the listening though. I got the specs from this website: http://www.thevintageknob.org/kenwood-L-07M.html

    At least one owner who posted there thinks very highly of them. So, hook 'em up and tell us what you think :cool:

    Power :

    1x 150W (20Hz...20Khz, 8 Ohm, 0,008% THD) 0,007%THD

    Those were, and are, superb amplifiers... the companion tuner was also extremely good, and the preamp was OK as well, if memory serves.

    Don't know those specifically. But if they have a 4 amp draw each. They cannot be much less than 120 watts each into 8 ohms RMS 20-20K. And maybe the full 150 watts? That's 8 amps for both and that's a lot of amps going in for there not to be something reasonable coming OUT!

    I can't wait to see the "sale" thread on all this stuff!

    In picture 4 you can see they were sold by Opus in Pittsburgh. I live in the Burgh and I hear a lot of people talk about how great of a shop it was back in it's day. Interesting they wound up in Boise. They look to be like nice amps fix'em up and let us know how they sound.
