I need to sell these items for medical reasons, pick them up in Flint, MI -
This CAR/TRUCK/VAN stereo system I bought new, used it while on the road and
took it out of my
full size Chevy van in 2000 when I sold it. This is a package deal:
Kenwood 5003 AM/FM/Tape with all the bells and whistles, paid $375 with all
mounting hardware, dash kit and cables.
Kenwood 4031 stereo amplifier, 80 watts per channel with 9 band graphic EQ.
Presently mounted with the AM/FM/Tape for easy dash mounting, but either can be
used without the other. Paid $225
Kenwood 4X5 two-way dash speakers with grill covers, like new, sound great
Kenwood 6X9 two-way door or dash or rear deck speakers with grill covers, like
new, sound awesome!
Kenwood 6 inch round woofer with grill cover for added midrange or bass, like
new, sounds terrific!
All speakers, and more, easily driven by either the powerful Kenwood 5003 or
really tremendous audio with sparkling clarity using the 4031 amp/EQ. Speakers
alone cost over $200. Package for $175!
I have a like new Anchor Liberty series MPB-3500 portable PA
system. I used it twenty times on stage. Sold for $1,200
Totally portable, four hours on the rechargeable battery or
forever off wall current, recharges while plugged
into the wall outlet, even if in use! The main unit with amp
weighs 35 pounds with 50 watts of continuous RMS of power
output, horn and woofer in main cabinet with amp. A matching
second, stand alone cabinet, with just horn and woofer,
weighs 20 pounds. Measures 24 high, 16 wide and 12 deep.
The amp has two low impedence mike input jacks and one line
input, (mike and line in have gain control knobs) separate
bass and treble controls and main volume control. As well as
a voice/music switch. This allows the system to reduce the
bass and feed more signal to the horn for better voice
dispersion and penetration through noise and for greater
range extension. Most effective for high noise areas, outside
crowds etc.
This system has a lot of power and punch for its size and
will do an outstanding job with music, voice or voice over
music. You can feed a cassette tape or CD deck through it.
Each channel has a line level control. There is a built in
carrying handle on each unit and it is a comfortable one that
will not cut your hands. Light enough that most ladies can
easily move it around too.
I have a fifty foot cable for the second speaker to plug into
the main unit. If a third speaker cabinet is needed, there is
a jack on the second speaker to plug it in. The third speaker
is not included! It sells for $300. I doubt it would be
needed for most applications.
I bought a great lapel mike for it. It is a special Audio Tecnia condensor
high gain, uni-directional mike. Very small, but very
powerful! it is not wireless, connects to any standard
shielded mike cable.
It is in a special hard case to protect it. Excellent voice
range with crystal clear projection. it has a puff filter. I
paid $175 for it new.
The two cabinets are just like new. The front of each has a
protective strong metal screen to keep curious fingers, human
toes out and protect the speakers from damage. They work
perfectly. I have the original paperwork and manuals.
It is a fantastic system and has all sorts of practical
applications in a smaller environment and the fact that it is
so powerful and portable makes it really hard to beat!
I am asking $450 for it, with the optional lapel mike and
fifty foot external speaker cable included. Buyer pays any
packing and shipping costs.
