Kenwood Supreme 700C

One of the best Preamps ever Designed!

The Kenwood 700C belongs to the original Supreme series of separate components. These were highly exclusive, special-order statement products from Kenwood in the 1970s. The 700C serves as the preamp in the 700X set, which also includes the 700M power amplifier and the 700T Tuner.


Features


  1. Two Stage Loudness Bass Boost

  2. Tone Controls with turnover

  3. Left and right Mic inputs

  4. Stereo and mono mode

  5. Full tape Playback and dubbing controls

  6. 2 Phono inputs for turntable both with adjustable loads

  7. Balance control

  8. Headphone Jack with adjustable level

  9. 3 Auxiliary inputs and one tuner

  10. Attenuator type Volume control


The 700C is among the finest sounding preamps we've encountered, though they are regrettably very rare, and few have experienced a fully restored one. The internal circuit design is exceptional, and the unit is heavier than most integrated amplifiers. The unit we are showcasing was recovered with a damaged faceplate, which we was repaired and reanodized in black.
