Gebrauchter Kenwood Audio-Video Surround Receiver KRF-V7030D mit Dolby Digital, dts und RDS, voll funktionsfähig inklusive Fernbedienung.
Versus a lot of generic modern AV receivers at this money, this is a strong deal: €50 sits well below the €60 25th percentile and far under the €88 median for recent comparable listings, so it reads as a bargain rather than just a fair buy. For a Kenwood surround receiver of this era, that’s the right kind of low entry point if you want an affordable home-theater amp with vintage practicality.
The appeal here is solid feature-rich old-school AV value: these Kenwoods were built to handle multiple sources, decode surround formats, and offer the sort of straightforward, no-nonsense usability that still suits a secondary system or retro setup. At this price, the main upside is simple—good usable power and flexibility without paying collector money—so if it powers up cleanly and all channels work, this is the kind of listing worth moving on quickly.

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.
