Kenwood Trio L-05M


I just found four of these, two pairs that came out of music studios. I’m looking for info and opinions about these amps.

If the price is right buy a pair. TAS reviewed the L-07M's back in the late 70's and liked them. The Audio Critic did the same and didn't like them. I'd buy a pair to add to my amp collection.

I owned the L-07M back in the later 70’s as I was a Kenwood dealer and got 50% off the retail price.  I did not like them and sold them.  I went back to my GAS Son of Ampzilla which I loved and I am still sorry I sold it to this day. 

My friend Les had a pair of L-07M’S and Symdex Sigma speakers. He sold the Kenwood’s and bought an NAD 3020. He raved about how much better the $199 NAD sounded!

I could not get the amps to sound good with my Rectilinear 7 speakers which were quite easy to drive.
