Kenwood L-07D
(1980 - 1984)

One of the ultimate, absolute and perfect turntable. Only a few match this one - the Denon DP-100M, the Onkyo PX-100M, Sony PS-X9 or the Pioneer Exclusive P3a. If the saying "they don't make 'em like this anymore" sounds fine, it should be narrowed down for the L-07D to: "they only made it once and never will again". So far, the production run of the L-07D remains a mystery.
But Micro Seiki had a hand in it, as with most japanese high-end turntables outside Matsushita, Sony or Victor...

An absolute object nevertheless, and it is a real pity that Kenwood junked its design team after 1983 for the '80/'82 period was rich with many an interesting and structured design. And not only within the superlative "L" series.

The L-07D belongs in the pantheon of the all-time GREATS and here you will find out why : http://www.l-07d.com.

This post will soon be expanded with the original 1980 japanese catalog and the Kenwood advance info leaflet !!
