Gewicht: 15 Kg
Neupreis – 1500 DM
Das Gerät funktioniert einwandfrei, alle Tonregler funktionieren kratzerfrei.
Der einzige kleiner Mangel – der Knopf „LOUDNESS“ bei ausschalten ein wenig klemmt, muss man ein wenig „nachhelfen“ den in die Stellung „AUS“ zu bringen.
Der optische Zustand ist auf die Fotos zu sehen.
Falls das Gerät versendet wird, erfolgt die Bezahlung ausschließlich per IBAN, ich benutze weder Pay-Pal, noch die Funktion „ Direkt kaufen“ .
At €170, this sits essentially on top of the typical used market for this model, just a touch above the €168 median and right between the €167 and €177 middle spread, so it reads as a fair buy rather than a bargain or an inflated ask. For a vintage Kenwood receiver, that is a sensible place to land if the unit is complete and working properly.
The KR-6340 is a well-liked old-school receiver with the sort of solid, warm presentation and tactile build that still appeals to hi-fi buyers. At this price, the appeal is in getting a clean, listen-ready example with the right knobs, buttons, and no channel imbalance or scratchy controls; if it has been serviced or comes from a careful owner, that adds real value.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Kenwood traces its origins to December 21, 1946, when it was founded as Kasuga Radio Co. Ltd. in Komagane City, Nagano Prefecture, Japan, by a group of entrepreneurs led by William "Bill" Kasuga. Emerging in the postwar era, the company initially produced electronic components and amateur radio gear, renaming to Trio Corporation in 1960 before adopting the Kenwood name in 1986 to appeal to Western markets—blending "Ken," a familiar name across Japan and America, with "Wood" evoking durability and Hollywood. This rebranding fueled rapid international growth, starting with a U.S. office in Los Angeles County in 1963.
The brand built its legacy on high-quality audio and communications equipment, excelling in home hi-fi amplifiers like the acclaimed 1970 Supreme 1 multichannel model, receivers, tuners, and speakers with innovations such as polypropylene cones. Kenwood also pioneered car audio systems, including the first audio/video amplifier for home theater in 1981 and anti-theft cassette decks, alongside professional two-way radios and amateur transceivers. While maintaining roots in consumer electronics, it expanded into automotive infotainment.
Today, as part of JVCKENWOOD since the 2008 merger with JVC, Kenwood holds a solid mid-tier position in car audio and professional communications, prized by enthusiasts for reliable performance and aftermarket upgrades. Its vintage home hi-fi gear from the 1970s and 1980s commands respect among collectors for robust build and warm sound, though it no longer dominates pure hi-fi markets.
