Kenwood KR-9600


Hello audiogon members
not only I’m beyond amateurish when it comes to vintage audio I’m also a fresh new member with a large amount of questions.
i bought a kenwood kr-9600 yesterday and wondering what speakers I should get to match the amp power which is quite high I believe. I have a pair of Sansui SP2000
would that work? If not what should I look for that is not too expensive ($500 max)Thank you for your help

Nice - power is king. Make sure you have it recapped, however. Power supply capacitors age, and if they start leaking you will have a very messy amplifier that may well blow up your speakers too. Avoid boutique capacitors - just good quality form the likes of Philips or Panasonic.
If you want to stay vintage all the way the Dahlquist DQ10 would fit nice! The original large Advent would also fit the bill. Here is some info on the Kenwood.
