    Radio tuner dial clicking noise? [Kenwood KR-6050 Receiver]

    Recently when changing stations with the big dial on my Kenwood KR-6050 receiver, I noticed that the needle stopped at 98 and wouldn't go any lower. Along with that, a clicking noise would happen if you attempted to keep turning it below 98 and the needle would stay still. Upon opening up the...

    I am working on a Kenwood KA-3500. I have found three transistors that are blown. The service manual says they are the 2SA733Q or R, the 2SA620WB 4 or 5 and the 2SA850C or D. Of course all of these are now obsolete. Any suggestions as to fitting substitutions? I've tried Digikey and totally...

    Basic recap and restore BOM parts list on Kenwood KA-4002 integrated amp

    Performed a recap and basic restoration on a small Kenwood integrated amp KA-4002 and it sounds great. The KA-4002 has a cap-coupled output, so it has a warm sound kinda like tube gear and very much so the "1970's vintage sound". All electrolytic caps and "noisy" small signal transistors...
