Ok, the Kenwood KR-5150 has some strange styling. Black, white, orange and green. Almost a Halloween look and those white buttons really stand out like tusks. This Kenwood classic came out around 1971 and lasted until around 1975 and featured 50 watts per channel. This one has the optional wood case which you don’t actually see too often with this receiver. It retailed for around $320.00-$350.00.
The Kenwood KR-5150 featured:
- Tape in/output
- Two aux inputs
- Two phono inputs
- FM Muting
- Loudness
- Separate bass and treble controls
- Balance slider
- Right and left mic inputs
- Headphone output
- Mode and selector knobs
- Tuning meter
- Signal meter
The styling definitely the design transition from the late 60’s in to the mid 70’s. Later Kenwood models had a more appealing design.
This particular Kenwood model isn’t all that popular with collectors and they can be found for under $150. A 5150 with a wood case will bring a bit more. One in pretty good condition with a wood case recently sold for $150.00 (10-6-2011).
