I don't think it is an exact match but the tuner is silver. The tuner has been there about a week before the amp maybe there was a delay in getting them to the floor. You are right I was looking at the inside of a different Kenwood amp in google images.

I have an Adcom GF-535, a Jolida 102B tube amp, Music Angel tube pre-amp,
a Yamaha receiver in the living room, a Sonance 260 and NAD 7155 in the garage, and a Sherwood RX-5505 in the master bedroom.

Not to mention two Maggie console tube amps AND a Mitsbushi DA-A15DC power amp.

I need to buy a new tonearm for the Technics 1200 MKII so it is that or the amp. I don't want to use the old plastic lol.

They had an EV orphan at my Savers once. It was a great speaker but I never would have been able to find a partner for it. It was a speaker not a driver.

Shit, that beast is heavier than my Marantz 2270s and those Adcom 555s.

The A-7090 replaced an Onkyo TX-5000 receiver. It weighs 33 lbs., 2 lbs. less than the Adcom and the specs are somewhat better than the Marantz. Onkyo made some very good stuff that is frequently overlooked.

An Onkyo TX-555 was my first.

Picked up and Acurus L10 line stage for 15 bucks at GW tonight. On second glance, picked up the matching A150 amplifier for 25. Hopefully they work as the return period will be over before I get a chance to check them out. Figure the price was worth the gamble.

Nice. I can never find stuff that nice. I mean it is almost impossible to find a pre-amp, and you found one and the amp that goes with it!

To be honest, it is the first decent thing I have found in GW since my Marantz 2270 back in 2009 for 49.99
