Anyone familiar with the Kenwood KD 750 turntable?

I solved my speed problems by replacing the standard adjustment pots with 2 larger outboard ones mounted in the side of the bottom metal plate. The original pots were there only for setting the speeds to initiate the quartz lock when you press the 33/45 speed buttons. I can now spin up the speed to 78 rpm at the 45 speed switch setting. Mine was a little rough when I got it but I have tweaked it to satisfaction. Mounted with a Dynavector 50 it's a great sounding deck. I am interested in buying another 750 or 850 if someone has one with problems. Thanks

I have owned a KD 750 since new in 1981, I have never had the problems listed and have found it to be a very nice Turntable. It has concrete in the center of the base to help dampen outside vibrations and has a piano finish walnut exterior. I originally used a Signet TK7SU cartridge which would track the Telarc Digital half speed recording of the 1812 overature canons at 1 gram. I now have a Ortofon high output MC cartridge. Although I have been working on a 212 year old colonial in Maine I have not had it out for a couple of years and cannot wait to get it out to start listening to my half speed recordings.
I have seen these occasionally on... dare I say it e-bay. I hope you can find a clean unit for it was and to me is a very good turntable

You may still be interested in the Kenwood KD750?  I am selling mine which I purchased in the 70s.  The base is Rosewood and it is in very good condition, used only for a few years.  It is going onto Craigslist today.
Thank you.
