    Have you ever kept a piece equipment just because it looks good?

    My piece is this Kenwood KR-5340. I think it is stunning. Solid. Extremely well made. Immaculate condition, lovey lights on the facia. Sometimes I just sit and stare at it. Now any suggestions on suitable speakers for it? What has been your muse? Sent from my Nokia 3310 using Tapatalk
