Seller's Description

Traded in one of the 80´s famous speakers! Fully functioning. No boxes... 80 Kg. Inbytt en av 80-talets legender. Fullt fungerande och låter extremt bra. Allt fungerar alltså vilket var lite oväntat. Basarna omkantade under resans gång så de är friska. Plasmadiskanten är av en typ som inte ger en massa ozon-doft rummet. Behöver renoveras då det finns en del ringar och märken i kabinetten. Vänster mellanregister har en skada på aluminiumfolien men är fullt fungerande ljudmässigt.

Our Thoughts RADAR AI

Notable mostly for its vintage Braun design heritage, but the kr 10,000 ask sits above the kr 10,495 75th percentile only by a hair? Actually, on your database anchor it’s just below that upper quartile, so this reads as ambitious but not out of line rather than cheap. Against a median of kr 4,341, you’re paying a clear premium, so the value depends heavily on whether this is a proper, original, and fully working pair.

If the drivers are healthy, cabinets are clean, and the set is complete, there can be real upside here: Braun’s better speakers have a strong following for their understated industrial design and honest, unfussy sound. I’d want to verify originality, cone/surround condition, and whether any restoration has been done, because on older Braun pieces the presentation can look elegant while hidden age issues affect performance.

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

About Braun Audio

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.
