Kenwood RA-54 Reverberation Amplifier Demo

This is just a brief video of the device and how it works. There isn't much on the internet about this unit so I thought this might help someone out.

These things are beautiful. It’s a shame audio companies don’t focus on the visual beauty and effects on their products anymore.

Hi, could you show how to set it up? Mine has sound coming through but only when the reverb button is clicked but there’s no reverb. The lights also aren’t on. Thanks

As I recall, if the lights are not on, you're not getting the reverb effect. It should pass through the audio when off, and provide the reverb effect when on (lights up). You should use your tape outputs from an amp, then wire those to the input on this unit. Then output of this unit goes to tape inputs of your amp. Now have your amp monitor your tape inputs and you'll have it. It may vary depending upon which amp you have, but similar to what I've described.

Came here wanting to hear what it sounded like. Left the same way I came - still no idea. How can it be a resource if you can't hear the unit's reverb effect over the reverb of your room?

[@popbumper]

I suppose then it was worth the cost you paid for the video. Nothing.

[@somosricardovids]

Is this a Digital Delay?

[@popbumper]

No. It's very analog sounding. I say this with an * because I haven't dug up schematics to see. But it sounds analog to me.

I think this is 1987 model

1983년 정도 인거 같네요
