Seller's Description

Hallo,

zum Verkauf steht eine hochwertige Braun Hi-Fi-Anlage aus der bekannten Atelier-Serie im zeitlosen Dieter-Rams-Design.

Das Set besteht aus:

* Braun C4 Kassettendeck
* Braun R4 Receiver / Verstärker mit Tuner
* Braun VC4 Video-/AV-Steuereinheit
* Braun CD5 CD-Player

Die Anlage wird ausdrücklich als defekt verkauft, da im Betrieb gelegentlich Knackgeräusche auftreten. Laut Aussage eines Elektrofachmanns deutet dies vermutlich auf eine defekte Lötstelle bzw. ein altersbedingtes Kontaktproblem hin.

Optisch befindet sich die Anlage in einem guten gebrauchten Zustand (siehe Fotos).

Verkauf daher ausdrücklich als Bastlergerät / defekt ohne Garantie oder Rücknahme.

Nur Abholung in Neckargemünd, kein Versand.

VB 200 €

Viele Grüße
Benni

Our Thoughts RADAR AI

Compared with an obvious alternative like a generic used CD player around €249, this asks a premium; it sits above the median and even above the €374 75th percentile is not reached, so it is not a bargain on price alone. At €350, I’d call it fair-to-ambitious for the market, with the value depending on how complete and clean the package really is.

The appeal is the Braun/Dieter Rams design: these pieces are bought as much for their industrial-design cachet and shelf presence as for straightforward playback. In excellent condition, that matters, especially if the front display, tray, and remote are all intact and it has been recently tested; those details can justify paying up. I’d still want confirmation that discs load smoothly and the laser reads reliably, since age-related transport issues are the main thing that can turn a handsome buy into an expensive project.

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.
