Grundig 5050 W/3D Automatic.

Very huge radio from Grundig, this is a very rare model who is equiped with the "automatic" function.
The automatic version runs to stations by using a motorized tuner.
This radio is a heavy boy and weigts aprox 28Kg.
The speakers in this radio are very impessive and huge, also in this set they use 2 frontal tweeters.
No nessesery to mention these radios wher very expensive in the production time, but still today you will pay a lot of money to have one in this condition...

Siemens shatulle P48 biggest table top radio ever made!

This is the biggest table top radio ever made (for so far I know).

It’s the masterpiece of any collection of German radios.

It’s a Siemens Schatulle P48 made between 1954 and 55.

This radio is a SoundBlaster, 4 big alnico speakers are doing the big job!

There is a ECC83 for each EL84 tube!

No less than 14 tubes!!!

This radio was the most expensive radio of his time, you have to pay 795 DM (German Marks = 1500 euro or 1890 USD).

This is the top of all radios, I hear a lot of radios during all this time of collecting but this is just amazing, you can feel the volume go thru your cloths…

Its just a wonderful radio, I’m so glad I finely have one in my collection.

This radio is also very heavy he weights about 30 Kg!

The sizes are 80 cm wide, 44 cm high and 33 cm depth so he is much bigger than the M57!

Tubes:

EZ80, EZ80, EC92, ECC81, ECH81, EF89, EF89, EL84, EL84, ECC83, ECC83, EB91, EBF80, EM80.

 

Kindly regards,

David.


A big thanks to Hein Houben for selling me this radio.
