Description

The Kenwood KT-591 is a clean, no-fuss quartz synthesized AM/FM stereo tuner from 1991 — a slim, compact component that delivers reliable FM and AM reception with digital tuning precision and preset station memory.

The quartz PLL synthesized tuning system locks onto stations with accuracy and stability, eliminating drift and ensuring clean, consistent reception. Auto and manual tuning modes make it easy to scan the dial or step through frequencies one at a time, and preset memory allows quick recall of your favourite stations. The digital display clearly shows the tuned frequency, band, and stereo reception status. Stereo RCA audio outputs connect directly to any amplifier or receiver with an available line input.

The KT-591’s slim profile and black finish make it an unobtrusive addition to any component stack, and it pairs naturally with Kenwood’s KA-series amplifiers from the same era. This unit is in good cosmetic condition and has been tested and inspected by our team at Radique Audio.

Kenwood began in 1946 as Kasuga Radio in Nagano Prefecture, Japan. As Trio, it sold its products in America under the Kenwood name, and took that name worldwide in 1986. We carry Kenwood stereo receivers and AV receivers, power amplifiers, preamplifiers, tuners and CD players. We've had nearly 60 Kenwood listings so far, covering about 50 different models. Every used Kenwood here is inspected, tested and serviced as required, then photographed in-house and covered by our Bumper-to-Bumper Warranty and Perpetual Trade-Back Program. Don't see the model you want? Tell us on First Dibs and we'll email you when one arrives.

Kenwood models we've sold more than once include the KM-208 power amplifier and the KA-550D integrated amplifier.

The Kenwood story, 1946 to today

Kasuga Radio was founded in 1946 in Nagano Prefecture, Japan, making radio components, and opened a mass-production plant in Tokyo in 1955. It was renamed Trio around 1960.

Where the name came from. Kenwood was coined in America. Bill Kasuga and George Aratani set up Kenwood Electronics in the early 1960s to sell Trio products in the US, and Kasuga said he chose "Ken" because it works as both a Japanese and an American name. Trio later bought Kenwood Electronics, and in 1986 the whole company became Kenwood Corporation.

The hi-fi years. Trio-Kenwood built KR receivers through the 1970s, the KA-1000 integrated amplifier with heat-pipe cooling in 1980, and late-1980s amplifiers with Sigma Drive, which takes the feedback loop out to the speaker terminals. The KR-A receivers ran from the mid 1980s to the mid 1990s.

Today. Kenwood merged with JVC between 2008 and 2011, and JVCKENWOOD Corporation now owns the brand. In Canada, Kenwood today sells car audio, two-way radios and earbuds rather than home hi-fi.
