Unbedingt lesen weil wichtig:
- ich hatte den Artikel schon einmal eingestellt und sehr viele Anfragen erhalten
- ich hatte den Artikel reserviert aber am Ende wurde er nicht abgeholt
- ich habe keine Ahnung wie die Boxen in meinen Bestand gekommen sind und hatte sie auch nie angeschlossen
- laut einigen Nachrichten ist es eventuell nicht mehr der Originalzustand
- ich habe keine Ahnung von Lautsprechern und eigentlich sollten sie auf'n Müll wandern
- ich kann nicht einmal sagen ob sie funktionieren und habe auch keinen Receiver, keine Zeit und kein Interesse um das zu probieren
- die Boxen werden vom Käufer im Storage in der Stralauer abgeholt und es werden 200€ gezahlt
- die Boxen können dann vom Käufer zu Hause geprüft werden und wenn das Resultat nicht zufriedenstellend ist, nehme ich sie zurück, zahle die 200€ zurück und bringe sie zum Recyclinghof
Wenn die letzten drei Punkte für dich passen, meld dich gern. Ansonsten spare dir und mir die Zeit deiner Nachricht.
Alles Gute

€200 is fair to slightly strong if this is a clean working pair, but not an obvious bargain; for a vintage East German bookshelf speaker like this, that lands in the normal enthusiast range rather than a steal. If the cabinets, drivers, and crossover have been checked and it’s selling locally without shipping drama, the price is still reasonable for a model with real collector interest.
The appeal here is the classic RFT sound and solid old-school engineering: lively midrange, good presence, and a characterful presentation that can make small jazz, vocals, and radio-era recordings feel especially right. These are the kind of speakers people buy for musical charm more than specs, and good originals can be hard to find. At €200, I’d want honest condition and original parts, but a tidy example is absolutely worth considering.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
RFT, or Rundfunk- und Fernmelde-Technik, emerged in the German Democratic Republic (East Germany) during the Cold War era, functioning not as a single manufacturer but as a state consortium uniting numerous VEB (state-owned) enterprises in radio, television, and telecommunications. Active from the 1950s through the 1980s, it coordinated production across factories like VEB Funkwerk Köpenick and VEB Nachrichtenelektronik, branding a diverse array of electronics under the RFT label for domestic and export markets. This collective structure reflected the centralized economy of the GDR, with no individual founder but a legacy tied to postwar industrial revival.
The brand's product focus centered on consumer and professional audio gear, including bookshelf speakers, full-range drivers, vacuum tubes, and communications electronics like radios and two-way systems. Iconic examples encompass 1970s RFT bookshelf speakers with Tesla-sourced drivers, 1950s EGB (RFT) units for high-sensitivity radio applications, and ECC83 preamp tubes widely used in European amps. Amplifiers and turntables appeared sporadically via consortium members, but RFT excelled in affordable, robust loudspeakers and components rather than high-fidelity esoterica.
Today, RFT occupies a niche vintage-collector space among hi-fi enthusiasts, prized for its utilitarian GDR engineering and surprising sonic performance—often high-sensitivity designs that punch above their budget origins. Far from high-end or contemporary mid-tier contenders, these pieces appeal to retro hunters seeking Cold War-era bargains with character, though sourcing verified originals demands caution amid rebrands and fakes. Obscure outside specialist circles, RFT evokes affordable analog nostalgia without pretension.
