Kenwood KA-990SD:
A high‑resolution digital systems
Description
The KA-990SD, released by Kenwood in Japan, produced between 1985 and 1987, was a pre-main amplifier that uses Super DLD (Dynamic Linear Drive) circuit. The Super DLD circuit is equipped with a newly developed supercharger and makes full use of the four power supply circuits of the DLD to form a powerful power supply. As a result, the power supply capacity is always the mixed value of the four power supplies at any output, making it possible to reproduce clearer and heavier sound. It is equipped with 8 input terminals and an adapter IN-OUT connection to a graphic equalizer.
Features & Functionality
*Built-in phono stage for both MM & MC cartridges, with switchable MC impedance and MM impedance taps (100, 47, 33 kΩ)
*Super DLD technology delivers strong, consistent power via four power-supply circuits for bass clarity and punch
*CD‑Direct mode routes away tone and balance circuitry for minimal signal path and purer playback
*Multiple inputs & outputs: up to 8 inputs (Phono, CD, Aux, Tuner, Tape A/B/C), adaptor EQ in/out jacks, record selector, and support for two speaker pairs.
This amplifier is in Very Good condition, with some signs of use and aging, including scratches, rusts and some scuffs on the surface (please check photos). **One of the output terminals is broken(please check 16 no. photo).
