Seller's Description

Wunderschönes Siemens Schatulle H52 aus den Jahren 1955/56 in ausgezeichnetem, restauriertem Zustand. Das elegante Nussbaumgehäuse mit den charakteristischen Schiebetüren macht dieses Modell zu einem der stilvollsten deutschen Röhrenradios der 1950er Jahre. Ausgestattet mit UKW, LW, MW und KW sowie dem originalen 3-Lautsprecher-System für einen beeindruckenden, warmen Röhrenklang.

Das Gehäuse wurde schonend aufgearbeitet und mit einer dünnen Schicht Klarlack neu versiegelt. Dabei wurde bewusst auf einen dicken, unnatürlichen Hochglanzaufbau verzichtet, sodass die originale Holzoptik und der authentische Charakter des Radios erhalten geblieben sind.

* Komplett technisch überprüft und gewartet
* Chassis gereinigt und konserviert
* Alle Röhren getestet
* Neues, hell leuchtendes Magisches Auge eingebaut
* Empfang auf allen Wellenbereichen geprüft
* Regler und Schalter gereinigt und serviciert

Our Thoughts RADAR AI

Excellent condition makes €500 look fair-to-good rather than cheap, and for a Siemens Schatulle H52 it sits close enough to the going range that it’s not a stretch if the set is complete and properly working. Typical asking prices seen for this model cluster around roughly €395 to €460 for used examples, with notably higher retail-style listings well above that, so €500 is a touch above the common used band but not out of line for a clean, presentable piece.

What makes it worth a look is the H52’s reputation as a desirable mid-1950s Siemens tube set with strong FM/AM/LW/KW capability and good build quality, plus the visual appeal these big cabinet radios bring. In excellent condition, the upside is mostly originality, cosmetics, and whether it has been serviced recently; on a piece this age, a proper electrical check, healthy output stage, and intact knobs/grille cloth matter more than chasing a lower sticker price.

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

About Siemens

Siemens is a German industrial and technology company founded in Berlin in 1847 by Werner von Siemens and Johann Georg Halske. Its heritage is firmly rooted in electrical engineering, beginning with the pointer telegraph and expanding over more than 175 years into a global electronics and infrastructure giant. While not primarily an audio brand in the consumer hi-fi sense, Siemens has had long-running relevance in communications, broadcast, and professional electronics.

In audio, Siemens is best associated with professional and industrial electronics, communications equipment, and historically with parts and tubes rather than with mainstream hi-fi products. It is not known as a major maker of amplifiers, speakers, turntables, DACs, headphones, or cables for the consumer market. Where the name appears in audio circles, it is usually tied to vintage German valves/tubes, broadcast components, or related technical hardware.

As a hi-fi brand, Siemens sits outside the usual high-end or mid-tier consumer landscape. Its reputation is strongest among collectors, engineers, and vintage-audio enthusiasts who value German-built components and historic tube gear. For buyers seeking modern audiophile separates, Siemens is not a primary brand; for those hunting classic European parts and legacy technical quality, it has real cachet.
