Kenwood KP-1100 / 9010 Direct Drive PPL Player Audiophile Home Turntable - 100V
A deceptive looking turntable hiding everything under near-blank looks. The KP-1100 was released in 1985, and was then replaced by the identical Kenwood KP-9010 in 1988. These highly sort after units were engineered for longevity, stability and excellent sound quality. Hidden under the plinth is a large X shaped die-cast frame which is the centre of Kenwoods closed loop frame structure. This die-cast base supports the motor and arm and ensures shelf decoupling via massive rubber feet. The plinth as well as the dustcover rest on the die-cast frame with no direct contact to motor, platter or arm. In this way the essential mechanical parts are shielded from vibrations captured by plinth or cover. People have been known to modify this turntable by removing the plinth all together thus exposing large die-cast base.
