Just to keep the list going, over the weekend, I was helping a friend 
with firewall/spam/browser/mail/... and happened to see an old Kenwood 
KR 9600 receiver.  Searching the net found some info (160w/c or 200 
w/c), great FM, weighs 60+ pounds, output transistors is a block not 
individual outputs (and no longer available).  It seems like a great 
receiver but if the outputs are blown, either use the pre/tuner or sell 
it on ebay for parts.  I have many spare power amps so it isn't the end 
of the world if the amp is bad but I've never owned one this big.

It was offered to me for free but SWMBO may not fully appreciate it.  
Timing is critical when I bring the beast home.

Anyone have thoughts on the monster receiver?

Thanks,
rick
