Grundig 2066
We picked up this 1958 Grundig tabletop radio in non-working condition to restore and retrofit not knowing how well it’d turn out. We replaced its mono speaker with a stereo set from JBL with concentric tweeters and made this radio the overhaul it deserved.
After installing our custom tuned amplifier we wired the volume control to the orinal volume knob and kept the original clacky buttons performing some modern functions — off, on and input selection, cycling through Wi-Fi Streaming (for Spotify Connect, Apple Airplay and more), bluetooth, and even an aux-in port in the back.
It’s compact size makes it easy to underestimate — this thing gets loud while keeping a clear, crisp, hi-fi sound.
