Kenwood KA-7300 - New To Me

[denniswilson]

I just bought a KA-7300 to add to my Kenwood Integrated collection...which consists of KA-8100 and a Kenwood Supreme Model 500....now I have the KA-7300. I swear...this amp is like brand new! What a find!!!
Its all original and sounds terrific as it is! Any thoughts or opinions on this model and those unique output device packs? Thanks!!!

All I know is I like mine a lot. Very high quality unit with a dual mono design. Also can be used as a stand alone pre-amp. But it has plenty of power to accommodate most any system.

I love this amp. I was reading some old threads about it. Lots of great comments about the preamp section. Resident Kenwood expert EchoWars gives it praise.

Congratulations, the KA7300 is a great amp, I've noticed it has a great bass weight, wonder if it's due to the double transformer config.
Have you compared it to the Supreme? My guess is they both must be quite close

Liking mine a lot, currently running as a preamp driving two power amps.

Check the DC offset on it. They are notorious for have bad DC Leakage
