A strong bargain: at €55, this sits well below the €128 25th percentile and far under the €201 median for recent comparable EUR listings. That kind of gap usually means you’re buying at a steep discount rather than just getting a fair deal.
What makes it appealing is the classic SABA tuner appeal: these are valued for solid FM performance, good ergonomics, and that slightly warm, full-bodied vintage sound when restored properly. If it’s genuinely clean and working, the upside is real; just confirm dial lamps, stereo lock, and reception are healthy, since age-related service needs matter more than cosmetics on a tuner like this.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
# SABA
SABA stands as a landmark in German consumer electronics history, with roots tracing back to 1835 when Joseph Benedikt Schwer founded a clock manufactory in Triberg, Black Forest. The company formally entered radio production in 1923 under the name Schwarzwälder Apparate-Bau-Anstalt (SABA), quickly establishing itself as a major force in German broadcasting and recording technology. By the late 1920s, SABA had become the nation's second-largest radio manufacturer after Telefunken, renowned for precision engineering and motorized tuning mechanisms. The company survived World War II's devastation and expanded into television and hi-fi equipment during the postwar boom.
SABA's product portfolio encompassed radios, televisions, turntables, amplifiers, and speakers, with particular strength in integrated hi-fi systems and consumer audio components. The brand became synonymous with quality German engineering and meticulous attention to detail. Notable products included the iconic S35 radio and early PAL color television sets. During the 1960s and 1970s, SABA produced respected hi-fi equipment, though the company did not focus exclusively on the high-end audiophile segment.
Today, SABA occupies a significant place in vintage audio collecting circles. The brand ceased independent operations in 2007 following insolvency and a failed joint venture with Thomson and TLC. Collectors and enthusiasts value SABA's mid-century and 1970s equipment for build quality and sonic character, positioning the brand firmly in the vintage and retro hi-fi market rather than contemporary production.
