Kenwood Model eleven III

[DAGLJAM6]

Got this free(about a month and a half ago)when I bought a Teac RTR from a guy I know said he didn't have space for it .
These are the first pictures I've been able to post.
(Finally got everything cleaned up to be presentable to the forum)

Far out, very nice (if a little dark, but I shouldn't complain-- I can't get a decent picture to save my soul).
You have seen the other comments here about the 'digit' numbered models?

[DAGLJAM6]

Bully,
Yep and I've also been getting great info,pointers etc. from this forum about different aspects of collecting gear.
Can't say enough about the great bunch of guys posting every
day.

There is an absolute free and easy to use program. Its called IrfanView. You can get it from tucows. It is easy to use. You can brighten and manipulate your photos, jpegs bitmaps just about any form. Try it you'll like it.

That looks like a very very nice receiver. I just bought a Kenwood KA-9100 and haven't stoped listening to it since. I have been more than pleased with the sound of the Kenwood. Now the problem is I can hear so much with it, I realize my CD is crap. Digital music sounds beautiful though. I hope you enjoy it as much as I have mine. Duh...the model is the title of the post...nm.

I had a Model Eleven III for many years. Great receiver, lot's of power and a timer.

[DAGLJAM6]

I've enjoyed using mine so far and am in the process of having the coupler between the timer and dial made up at a friends machine shop. Right now I've jumped the timer out but I'd like to
run the timer purely for the nostalgia factor.
I may have a few extra couplers made just to have on hand for those who may be interested. Ill post a note when they're available.

The Eleven is one of the great classic units. INCREDIBLE build-quality and TONS of presence!

What is the rated WPC on your Kenwood Eleven II ?

[DAGLJAM6]

I've read/seen posts/etc. and it's supposed to be between
100-115wpc. but I'm not positive.

I have an audio buddy that has the Model 11000 (military model of the 11) and he says it is rated at 120 wpc.

I love these Kenwood Military receivers.
I have the KR-9000G, although I just put it up for auction.
I was going to mod the timer also, but decided I liked it the way it was.
These really are great sounding receivers.

My model 11 was rated at 50wpc. . . I do not know about the model 11 III but mine was 50wpc. . . I was surprised to discover that. What is the power consumption figure on the rear of the receiver? If it is 100wpc you should see a number like 400+ or there about. . .
