Our Thoughts RADAR AI

At €35, this looks like a strong bargain versus the typical used market: well below the €69 25th percentile and far under the €102 median, so the asking price leaves room for a sensible gamble.

These older Kenwoods can be good-value vintage sleepers if the drivers are intact and both cabinets are healthy; at this level, the upside is in getting a solid, listenable pair without paying collector money. For speakers of this age, a quick check for foam/surround condition, cone rub, and tweeter output is still worth doing, but the price is low enough that minor cosmetic wear should not be a dealbreaker.

Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.

About Kenwood

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.
