I have 2 Kenwood KD decks and both are out of action. They are so well engineered and come with simple features that simply don't appear on modern decks - end of side motor shut down and arm lift. They also come with very good gimbal arms that are a doddle to set up. The bearing assembly because that is what it is is superb will go on forever.
There used to be a good D/D repair co. in the UK that imploded. If the inevitable has occurred what possible alternative exists, bearing in mind that I am at the point of wanting to digitise my LP collection, CDs I will keep to use on the hugely under rated Marantz CD6007 which walks all over the original Marantz and the 63KI.
So, suggestions for a new/second hand T/T preferably D/D.
