Description from the seller

Philips Stereo 400 Record Player with Matching Speakers (Type 22AF400/00) – 1970
From the Collection of a Radio Shop Owner
Fully Working – In Excellent Condition – No Reserve

Step back into the golden age of home audio with this original design Philips Stereo 400 record player system, manufactured in France during the 1970s. This elegant all-in-one stereo combines a belt-driven turntable, integrated amplifier, and a pair of matching Philips loudspeakers in a clean, minimalist design characteristic of the era.

The Philips Stereo 400 perfectly reflects the functional aesthetics of early 1970s European design, featuring a sleek graphite-grey finish, smoked acrylic dust cover, and intuitive slider controls for bass, treble, and independent left/right volume adjustment. Compact yet stylish, it is an ideal addition to any vintage audio collection or retro-inspired interior.

This example has been tested and is fully operational. The platter rotates smoothly at both 33 and 45 RPM, and both original Philips speakers deliver clear stereo sound. The smoked dust cover remains in particularly attractive condition with only minor signs of age-related use.

Historical Context
During the 1970s Philips introduced a range of compact stereo systems designed to make high-quality music reproduction accessible to a wider audience. The Stereo 400 series became popular throughout Europe thanks to its combination of reliability, user-friendly operation, and modern styling. Today these systems are increasingly appreciated by collectors of vintage hi-fi and Mid-Century Modern design.
