Verkauft wird der BRAUN Studio System RS1 Synthesizer. Der Verstärker ist schwarz und wurde vom Designer-Genie Dieter Rahms entworfen. Das Teil wurde Ende der 70er angeboten.
Ich bin kein Techniker und kann nicht mehr sagen … hatte das Gerät aber vor Jahren noch sehr gerne im Gebrauch.
Privatverkauf ohne Gewährleistung und Rücknahme. Verkauf als Bastlergerät, da ich es nicht checken kann.
Versand mit Mehraufwand möglich
A tidy €120 is fair-to-good for this Braun, and it sits a bit below the more typical used asking prices I’d expect for a clean RS1, which commonly turn up around €135–€155 with some examples higher and some lower depending on condition and seller. For an excellent example, this is priced attractively rather than aggressively, and I’d regard it as a sensible buy if it’s fully working.
What makes it appealing is the Braun factor: sleek industrial design, strong brand cachet, and a receiver/synthesizer that has genuine collector appeal beyond just being a decent vintage amp. The upside is best if the unit is original, unmodified, and comes with its proper knobs, trims, and any matching system pieces; that’s where these hold value best. At this price, I’d focus more on confirming clean operation and correct cosmetics than on haggling hard.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Braun Audio traces its origins to 1921, when German engineer Max Braun founded the company in Frankfurt as a modest workshop producing radio components. By 1929, it had launched its own receivers, earning international acclaim at the 1937 Paris World Fair for sound engineering innovations. Post-World War II, Braun rebuilt with a sharp focus on high-fidelity reproduction, pioneering advancements under designer Dieter Rams from 1956 onward, including the first all-wave receiver, mobile music player (TP1 in 1959), stackable Hi-Fi systems, and wall-mounted integrated setups—many now museum pieces like those at MoMA.
The brand excelled in compact, modular stereo systems during the 1960s and 1970s, with iconic models like Audio 1, Audio 2, Audio 250, and Audio 300 featuring solid metal casings and uncompromised sound quality. Braun emphasized innovative portables, record players with plexiglass covers, and educational brochures on optimal listening setups, blending functionality with Rams' minimalist aesthetic across radios, phonographs, amplifiers, and early headphones.
Renowned among vintage collectors and design aficionados for its ahead-of-its-time hi-fi heritage, Braun Audio holds a niche position as a mid-tier icon of German engineering precision. After a 28-year hiatus, it relaunched in the 2010s under license, targeting enthusiasts who value timeless quality over cutting-edge exotica, with a current emphasis on preserving its storytelling legacy through curated webshops and reissues.
