Kenwood KT-3007
The Kenwood KT-3007 is a mystery in the Kenwood catalog. It is a real product, an AM/FM stereo tuner also sold under the Trio brand, but almost nothing formal is documented about it. No production years, no original price, no technical specification sheet has survived in the record. What we know comes almost entirely from marketplace listings and a single video title, pieced together by collectors who have handled the unit.
What the record does show is a solidly built Japanese tuner from the analog era. A Russian seller described it as having "heavy solid construction" and "confident radio reception," and noted the FM band had been retuned to the 88-108 MHz range. That is a common modification for units originally set to the Japanese FM band. The unit is 44 cm wide and runs on 100V or 110V (Japanese mains voltage). At least one listing sold it without a power adapter, so it needs a step-down transformer in 220V/230V markets. A Thai video title describes it as a "wooden-side tuner with very good bass sound," which suggests a veneer-wrapped chassis. One Yahoo Auctions listing paired the KT-3007 with the KA-3006 pre-main amplifier. That may point to a matching component, but it is a sale pairing, not a confirmed family relationship.
- AM/FM stereo tuner
- Also sold under the Trio brand
- Made in Japan
- Width: 44 cm
- Voltage: 100V or 110V (Japanese mains)
- Manual available in English (approx. 3.8 MB PDF)
Used prices have ranged from ¥1,000 on Yahoo Auctions Japan to 10,000 rubles on Russian classifieds. That suggests it is not a high-value collector's piece, but it still finds homes among vintage tuner enthusiasts. No professional reviews of the KT-3007 have surfaced, and no detailed specifications like sensitivity, selectivity, or THD are documented anywhere in the available record. If you own one and have the manual or measurements, the archive would welcome the contribution.
