Dieses geerbte alte schöne Philips Radio, Jupiter 553, von meiner Oma
biete ich hier zu Kauf an.
Es sieht richtig schön aus, hört sich wunderbar an. Die Tasten TA + LW lassen sich nicht herunterdrücken. Wie auf den Bildern zu sehen ist, fehlt die KW-Taste.
Es ist 62 cm breit, 39 cm hoch und 26 cm tief.
Schöner Hingucker.
Nur Abholung.

Across 45 comparable listings, the median asking price is €81, with the lower quartile at €60 and the upper quartile at €123. At €69, this sits comfortably below the median and close to the bargain end—good value if the radio is complete and working, rather than merely attractive in the photographs.
The Jupiter 553 is a substantial mid-1950s Philips set, with eight valves, FM alongside AM/longwave/shortwave coverage, three loudspeakers, and a handsome wooden cabinet. It is the sort of period radio that offers genuine presence and character, not just display appeal. Before buying, confirm that the dial, controls, tuning mechanism, and FM section work, and ask whether it has been safely serviced; old valve radios can need electrical attention even when they play. At this price, though, a clean, operational example is a worthwhile enthusiast buy.

Founded in Eindhoven, Netherlands, in 1891 by Gerard Philips, an engineer, and his father Frederik, a banker, Philips began as a modest light bulb manufacturer, quickly evolving into a global electronics powerhouse through relentless innovation. The brothers' early focus on quality incandescent lamps laid the groundwork for expansion into radios, televisions, and audio milestones like the 1963 compact cassette and the 1982 Compact Disc co-developed with Sony. This heritage of pioneering formats that reshaped home entertainment cements Philips as a cornerstone of 20th-century audio history.
Philips has long excelled in consumer audio categories, from vintage turntables and cassette decks to amplifiers, speakers, and complete hi-fi systems, often blending cutting-edge tech with practical design. Iconic products like the first CD player (CD-100) and early wireless Streamium systems highlight their prowess in optical media, portable recording, and integrated sound solutions, while forays into headphones and even acquiring Marantz underscored a broad portfolio.
Today, Philips occupies a solid mid-tier position in the hi-fi market, prized by savvy buyers for reliable, value-driven performance rather than ultra-high-end exotica. No longer a full-spectrum electronics giant—having pivoted to health tech—its licensed audio branding delivers competent, innovation-rooted gear that's accessible yet evocative of golden-era nostalgia, appealing to both modern enthusiasts and vintage collectors.
