Our Quick by Hornyphon is a true design classic from the 60s and was carefully restored to its original state. For this purpose, the device was completely disassembled and the cabinet and all the decorative elements were cleaned, polished and partially repainted. Since the radio was designed for AM reception only, we have equipped it with completely new technology to make it fit again for the future and an integrated Bluetooth audio interface allows to combine it with any modern audio source such as Smartphone, tablet or laptop. A compact active subwoofer (included) provides a balanced sound experience and can easily be hidden anywhere near the radio. The compact Quick fits in any living room and sounds like a big sound system. The wow effect is guaranteed!
The Minerva TR310 is a classic portable radio with high build quality and very cool design details from the 60s. The radio already delivers a good quality sound in its original state so no big technological modifications are needed to make it great again. Due to its restauration process the radio was completely disassembled and cleaned. Defective parts have been replaced especially the old electrolytic capacitors. Additionally a Bluetooth interface has been added to this icon so that it can be combined with any kind of modern audio equipment like Smartphone, Tablet or Laptop. Another great feature of the TR310 is that is can be operated by a battery back so you can use it outdoor as well. The TR310 is a great sounding icon – a piece of radio history with cool design elements and very high build quality. Combined with state of the art technology added by the Supersonic experts it will serve its happy new owner for many years to come.
Our little Hornyetta from Hornyphon is probably one of the cutest radios in our portfolio. The device is a pure AM receiver and was launched in the 60s as low price product. At that time it was the main attraction of a stylish youngster’s flat. Due to its design the Hornyetta is especially preferred in radio collector circles, but since no FM reception is possible its everyday usability is very limited. Due to this fact we replace the old technology of the Hornyetta with new electronics. The radio can then be used as a Bluetooth speaker. Of course, the Hornyetta can be controlled directly by its knobs or remotely via smartphone, tablet or laptop. The original speaker is retained, as it forms a great, well-balanced sound-body with the radio’s cabinet. Of course it is also possible to combine the device with a small, external active subwoofer to emphasize the lower frequencies. In terms of its design, dimensions and technical features, the Hornyetta is still a great deal that fits very well in any kitchen or bedroom.
Our little Eumig 326 takes you right back to the glorious 40s. After an extensive restoration of the cabinet the radio shines again with its original details. Since the device was designed for AM reception only, we have equipped it with completely new technology to make it fit for the future again. Due to an integrated AirPlay or Bluetooth audio interface the radio to be combined with any modern audio source such as Smartphone, tablet or laptop. A compact active subwoofer (included) provides a balanced sound experience and can easily be hidden anywhere near the radio. The Eumig 326 is really fine little radio that fits perfectly in any room of your apartment.
This is our adorable Nordmende Clipper. The little beauty has been lovingly restored to the original condition with attention to every small detail, but can do even more: in addition to receiving mid-wave and short-wave radio stations on battery power, the little one can be connected with its grid-power supply unit, Bluetooth receiver and an active subwoofer. At this moment the clipper transforms into a fully-fledged HIFI system with an impressive powerful sound. To give our oldies back everyday usefulness by maintaining originality is one of our favorite tasks. The Clipper K is a perfect example.
The Radione R25T was one of the first portable FM tube radios to be developed and produced in Austria. It can be operated with mains power or with six 1.5V batteries and weighs just over 5kg with these. That was the definition of a portable in 1957. In addition to these features, the R25T already supports FM reception and is an optically as well as acoustically perfectly designed radio. The generation of the 60V anode voltage for the tubes is also exceptional. It is not generated electromechanically with a chopper, as was the case with car radios at the time, but rather electronically via a fully transistorized step-up converter. In addition, the NF pre- and power-amplifier is already implemented in transistor technology, which was not the case with the predecessor. As with car radios, the tuner and the IF amplifier stages are using miniature D-series tubes. The speaker is 17cm in diameter and extraordinarily large in relation to the size of the radio. This also explains the great sound quality. In addition to these technical characteristics, the design of the R25T is real eye-candy. After a complete restoration, it functions like brand new and can also be combined with modern audio sources thanks to an integrated Bluetooth interface. This portable is a true classic that is rarely found today. Even more we are happy that we were able to preserve it for future generations.
The Siemens Grazioso-Junior 513 was manufactured in the early 1950s for medium- and long- wave AM reception only. Since these frequency bands are rarely used today, we have replaced classic tube technology with modern microelectronics. To maintain the look and feel, the radio can still be switched on and off with the original knob. Of course, the volume can also be controlled directly on the device as usual. The 513 has a Bluetooth interface and can be connected to any modern audio source (e.g. smartphone). To maintain the vintage sound of the little beauty, we use its original full-range loudspeaker. Of course, the Bakelite cabinet and all decorative elements have also been restored so that the Grazioso Junior looks like brand new again.
