Kenwood rack handle screws

[gearhead]

What screws do y'all use on your Kenwood rack handles?
Got any pics?

which Kenwood?

If you are talking about the KA series integrated amps, and the KT tuners made between 1976- 1980 then every unit I am familiar with uses the existing screws that hold the cover in place.... should be 2 on either side.

Naaa...the originals are just long enough to hold the thin metal cover on. Back in the day, if you bought the handles from Kenwood they sent the screws with the handles.

A trip to the hardware store can get a few metric screws long enough to work. I also use a flat washer, and a nylon washer to keep from gouging the pretty handles.

EW is right, you need longer ones. And yes, please use nylon washers, your gear will thank you.

My bad.... I never noticed that the screws were longer...

I had to go back to my KA-3500 to double-check for myself.
