AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

An exceptional piece of mid-century German audio engineering and design: The Loewe Opta Malmö-Stereo tube radio console, beautifully integrated with a premium Telefunken TW 504 automatic record changer. Manufactured in West Germany, this console is a classic example of the iconic "Mid-Century Modern" aesthetic, featuring a rich, warm wooden cabinet with elegant sliding doors.

Key Technical Features:
* Turntable / Vinyl Pickup: Built-in Telefunken TW 504 phonograph. It features a rare 5-position speed selector dial supporting 16, 33, 45, and 78 RPM records, plus a neutral "0" setting to protect the mechanical drive idler wheel.
* Radio Bands (Piano-style Buttons): Classic European interface including U (FM/Ultrakurzwelle), M (AM/Mittelwelle), and L (Long Wave/Langwelle).
* Audio Control: Equipped with independent Bass and Treble adjustment knobs and a dedicated ST (Stereo) decoder button for rich, room-filling sound.
* Visual Indicators: Features the iconic vertical T-Bar tuning indicator window on the front glass faceplate.
* Rear Panel: Original German production backplate with built-in DIN input/output connections, making it easily adaptable for modern Bluetooth or AUX receivers with the right adapter.

Condition Note for Bidders:
* Functional Condition: FULLY OPERATIONAL & WORKING PERFECTLY. Tested thoroughly with absolutely no functional issues. The tube amplifier delivers a warm, rich analogue sound, the radio catches stations clearly, and the Telefunken turntable runs smoothly across its speeds. Ready to play your favorite vinyl records immediately.
* Cabinet: Solid wood construction standing at a perfect mid-century height. In good cosmetic vintage condition with original lacquer (please refer to photos for exact visual details).
