BRAUN PK-G 5-81 Stereo Phonosuper Radiogram. Designed by Dieter Rams. German tube radio and record player from 1960/1961. This particular radio-phonograph combination is a real rarity in this revised condition. This Braun Radiogram is in a perfect working condition. This radio phonograph was full refurbished. Tubes were checked and defective replaced. All critical capacitors, defective elkos and resistors were replaced. The bulbs, the fuse, the power cord and plug were replaced. The record player was completely disassembled and overhauled. The engine has been cleaned and restored. The engine mounts were revised. New stereo crystal phono cartridge with new needle, all individual parts were cleaned, all mechanical parts were cleaned and re-oiled, all contacts were refreshed, technically checked, etc…. (Please look at the pictures). The wooden case has some small signs of use and history. It is in an excellent condition for its age. Probably a bit of character left in there. But nothing has been left when it comes to the inner workings. Its also a design classic and as such, a talking point in your home. Any Dieter Rams design is worth talking about as far as Im concerned, but the mid-20th century audio systems are the designs to have. Most are very special and work effortlessly in a midcentury modern room or home. It has a four speed record player 78, 45, 33, 16 rpm. The turntable was broken next to the tonearm and the speed switch. It was professionally glued and stabled with metal plates and resin on the back side. On the top side the glued spots were repainted in grey. It is a little bit visible, please have a look on the photo no. It is more stable than an original turntable now. The tube radio picks up LW, MW, KW and UKW (FM) signals. All switches and knobs work well treble, bass, etc. No scratches or noise. The platter will move in all speeds, plays records fine and loud. The sound is clear and the valves are in a very good condition. The 9 tubes and the original speakers are in perfect working condition. ECC85, ECH81, EF89, EBF89, EM84, ECC83, ECC83, EL84, EL84.
