Biete ein 2 Spur-Tonbandgerät an. Es wird als defekt verkauft, müsste überprüft werden, Motor läuft.
Bitte nur Abholung.
At €50, this looks like a strong bargain versus the recent used market: well below the €99 25th percentile and far under the €149 median, even before factoring in the unit’s parts-only status.
That makes it interesting mainly as a donor, restoration project, or source of scarce Braun-specific hardware rather than a plug-and-play deck. Braun’s gear is admired for clean industrial design and solid engineering, so even non-working examples can have real value to the right restorer. The key check is whether the transport, cosmetics, knobs, and any proprietary parts are complete, because parts-only units can become uneconomic fast if key mechanisms are missing.
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.
