Reviews[edit]

  • Very nice, stylish and timeless mono unit with very good radio reception.
  • The cassette section is unfortunately very noisy, rough and prone to interference.
  • The pulling power of the motor for the cassette drive is unfortunately not very high.
  • And the plastic caps on the winding mandrels tend to burst and fall off - still intact units are very rare.
