Loewe - Optacord OC 470 Cassette recorder-player

I present to you in this auction a Loewe cassette recorder player, model OC 470, made in Germany in 1975. The device is in excellent external condition, almost like new, despite being around 50 years old. It comes in its original box, including the original power cable and the original audio connection cable, both of which are new and unused, still in their original condition. The device has been tested and all mechanical functions work properly, but unfortunately, the sound output is low during playback, and I do not know the reason for this. Therefore, it is sold as is. Please read the description carefully and check the attached photos before participating in the auction.
