SABA’s RCP 690 sits in the mid-1980s boombox era, a nicely made, relatively uncommon stereo double-cassette model rather than a disposable basic portable. At €50, this is a genuine bargain: it is below the €64 25th-percentile mark from 64 comparable listings, and well under the €101 median.
The appeal is the combination of stereo radio, dual cassette convenience, and period SABA build quality, with the second deck adding useful copying and playback flexibility. At this money, it makes sense as a functional vintage player or restoration candidate, especially if the cosmetics are clean and both cassette mechanisms, radio, speakers, and battery compartment work. No need to overthink it: assuming the listing’s “good” condition is accurate, €50 is a strong buy.
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.
