Is this


I am just getting the HiFi bug again after 30 years of low fi living. Long story short; I pulled my 30 year old system out of the attic and don't know if it is worth using. Old System is: Kenwood KA-8006 Amp 70 watts per channel
Thorens TD-160C Turntable
Large Advents
Speakers are defineitly being replace by Spendor SP 1/2.
Kenwood Amp has static and cuts in and out on one channel.
Is Kenwood worth repairing with all the advancements they have made since it was manufactured. If it is worth repairing where do I turn to for service.I am in Northern New Jersey But I can always ship it anywhere if it is worth keeping. I am sure Thorens needs a "tune up" if it is worth saving.
Question 2: If Kenwood is worth keeping will it power Spendor sp 1/2.
Many Thanks

I have some Original Advents that I refoamed. I hooked them up to an Arcam A65 plus and it sounded great. Repair the Kenwood and sell it. The Thorens is worth keeping if you can tune it up. Good luck!
Good recommendations but the Advents only cost about $20 to refoam and if the screens are clean you can get someone to refinish the wood. I think it could make nice furniture.
