Gebruikt, altijd tevreden over geweest (geen schade). Origineel behorende bij een akai stereoset uit de jaren 80 (ac-mx90). Mogen weg vanwege nieuwe set boxen. Vermogen is 50w. Afmeting: 19 cm breed,
This looks like a strong deal at €30. Comparable used listings for the SW-MX90 cluster mostly around €15 to €25, with one tested pair at €10 and another at €23.09, so €30 is only slightly above the most common asking band and still very reasonable for a working pair.
These are modest vintage Akai bookshelf speakers, but they’re easy to like: 50 W rating, 8 Ω load, compact cabinet size, and they’re straightforward to integrate into a small stereo or bedroom setup. The real upside is condition—if this pair is clean, complete, and plays evenly without scratchy drivers or tired surrounds, it’s a sensible low-risk buy at this money.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Akai Electric Company Ltd. traces its origins to Japan, founded by engineer Masukichi Akai in Tokyo around 1929, with his son Saburo Akai playing a key role in its early growth. Initially focused on affordable radio components, the firm formalized as a full electronics manufacturer post-World War II, often cited as 1946. By the mid-20th century, Akai had evolved into a prominent name in consumer audio, peaking in the 1970s before financial troubles led to its exit from the industry in 1991.
The brand built its legacy on high-quality tape-based audio gear, including reel-to-reel tape recorders, cassette decks, tuners, amplifiers, and complete stereo systems that brought professional-grade sound to homes. In the late 1980s, Akai Professional revolutionized music production with the MPC series—starting with the 1988 MPC60, co-designed by Roger Linn—integrating sampling, sequencing, and velocity-sensitive pads into compact workstations that defined hip-hop and electronic genres.
Today, Akai holds a revered vintage-collector status among hi-fi enthusiasts for its robust 1970s components, prized for their warm analog character and build quality. In the pro audio realm, the MPC line endures as an iconic, mid-to-high-end tool for beatmakers, with modern iterations sustaining the brand through licensing. While not a current leader in traditional hi-fi like amplifiers or speakers, its heritage appeals to savvy buyers seeking timeless reliability over fleeting trends.
