Sound so big and warm, is a delicious. Great tuner section with a very good sensitive and selective FM. Great in all details, up to THREE pairs of speakers, a stereo selector with only L, only R, stereo, reverse stereo and mix L+R. Full of details and sound. One of my best" Audiokarma user Ponoka writes: "The Kenwood 5400 was a very capable mid-range receiver. Purchased one new in 1976 along with pair of Altec 891a speakers. Liked my rock loud and punchy an the system did not disappoint. I agree with comment above regarding loudness button. Put it on and then adjust the base level appropriate to your room and volume. I found it unnecessary at louder volumes, but the Altec's had a lot of bass." Just Audio posted: "The Kenwood KR-5400 is the most sophisticated stereo receiver ever offered at a medium price. It delivers more power than most listeners will ever use. And it combines this performance with features and controls that rival those of more expensive separate tuners and amplifiers.

I am very honest about any issues that exist, just check my feedback. One buyer reviewed me as “Honest, Honest, Honest Seller”. I treat buyers like I would expect to be treated. I am a hobbyist that buys items that need help, clean/fix them up, enjoy them for a while and sometimes sell them. I do not work on other people's equipment. Check out the photos. The photos display exactly what this item is. I would like to guarantee this item. However, too many unprincipled buyers that strip parts and then wanted to return electronics as being defective force me to protect myself from this type of abuse. I will pack well and insure the package during shipping. One recent buyer stated that he thought that his unit could have been dropped from a truck at highway speed and still survived intact. · Nothing else, no further warranties or guarantees are implied. This vintage item is being listed and sold AS-IS because of parts swappers, people hooking stuff up wrong and scammers.
