Summary

[edit]
Description

My vinyl-spinner. This is one of the all-time classics. In the late 1970's Kenwood decided to make a statement, barring no costs. The result was the legendary L-series (or Lab-series), comprising the L-05, 7 and 9 pre/power amplifiers, the L-07T tuner and the L-07D direct drive turntable.

This turntable is truly heavy Hi-Fi, the unit weighs in at 35 kg (77 lbs), the platter alone is 5.5 kg (12 lbs).

I have continued with the heavy theme on the "table" it sits on; a half-inch thick sheet of lead-glass (63% lead) that lays on a foundation of limestone bricks. The glass sheet was once used as an observation window into a X-ray room at a hospital.

From thevintageknob.org: If the saying "they don't make 'em like this anymore" sounds fine, it should be narrowed down for the L-07D to: "they only made it once and never will again".
