Center speaker. I.v.m. Opruimen van het huis wordt deze beschikbaar gesteld. Aan de onderzijde en bovenzijde ontbreekt een rubberen dopje / steuntje. Het product wordt niet opgestuurd.
Timing matters a bit here because this is an older speaker package, so the real question is whether you want a compact, budget-friendly surround set rather than chasing newer home-theater gear. At €20, it sits far below the €104 25th percentile and well under the €189 median from the recent comparable EUR listings, so this is a strong bargain rather than a merely fair price.
That makes it attractive if the drivers, terminals, and cabinet corners are intact, since modest Kenwood multichannel packages can still be perfectly serviceable for casual TV, garage, workshop, or secondary-room use. The upside is simple: even if it’s not a collector’s piece, the downside is tiny at this price, so a clean, complete set is worth grabbing quickly if you can inspect for obvious damage, missing grilles, or tired foam.
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.
