All I know is it is rated at 120 Watts per channel. These seem to be scarce.
Any info on quality and value? Thanks,
Dave
 
Decent receiver but overpriced at least 100.00 due to that ridiculous and
unreliable "servo face" front panel.

I had the KX-102 tape deck at one time years ago.
It was a well designed and built unit.
The servo front on it never gave me any trouble.
I especially liked that auto-tune biasing feature that used an
internal tone generator to ttest each tape and optimise the bias
setting over each section of the scale for the best performance.
It didn't have the highest highs but from 18Khz on down it was
flawless.
Yes most Luxman is over-priced but so was most of the "high-end" gear
sold back then.
 
The little motor which ran the face went bad a lot.
