kyocera stopped making audio gear around 1989, but their stuff was really, really good--they were sort of the japanese mcintosh, with much better build quality than the plastic junk trotted out by their peers. i still have their 861 receiver and a matching cdp--their tape decks and turntables were also first-rate.

@jc4659 , I also have an A-710 integrated. It’s restored. It’s an excellent amplifier that rivals what one can get from Luxman or Accuphase (imho) probably up to $10k….Like many from Japan in this era, the phono stage is superb. @artemus_5 Kyocera’s focus within the home audio business was, without question, quality. Even the lower end products were built well.

@plinko May I ask where you had your A-710 restored? I am located in the midwest. |
