Our Thoughts RADAR AI

Condition is unknown, so the €59 ask is still easy to like: it sits well below the €77 25th percentile and far under the €110 median, making it a strong bargain by recent comparable sales. For a vintage SABA tube radio, that leaves room for a restore-and-enjoy purchase without paying collector-money.

These old SABA sets are prized for warm, full-bodied sound, handsome cabinetry, and the charm of German prewar design, but they should be bought with the usual tube-radio mindset: expect age-related service needs, not plug-and-play perfection. At this price, the upside is solid if the cabinet is decent and the set is complete; even a nonworking example can still be worthwhile if the chassis is intact and you want a restoration project.

Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.

About SABA

# 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.
