The TC-K 311, TC-K 411 and TC-K 511 S are similar in design, all three have the cheap drive (a lot of plastic) from the previous year's TC-K 390 models or TC-K 490.

The TC-K 511 S has no volume control of the headphone output (the next larger TC-K 611 S has this).

STEREO 9/1993, comparison test: no stereo recommendation. "Plus +excellent dynamics at high and low frequencies due to Dolby S. Minus -simple drive with synchronization problems. (Stereo, p.26)
STEREOPLAY 11/1993, comparison test: Top class III. Price-independent purchase value: Sound very good, workmanship good.
