WIFI Multiroom Vintage Radio

Radio Art déco équipée d’un amplificateur stéréo 160 W allié à deux hauts-parleurs ajustés de 80 W chacun (le haut parleur original avait une puissance de 1 W !).

Its WIFI module will allow you to stream audio from music platforms and radio stations with much better sound quality than Bluetooth. Technical possibilities are rapidly evolving and we are dedicated to making our vintage devices effective tools to take advantage of them!

Find more information about WIFI features.

WIFI connectivity also opens up the possibility of synchronous wireless streaming to multiple devices (multi-room). If you buy a second device (radio, WIFI record player or WIFI speaker), one could play the left track and the other the right, or one could play your music in the living room and the other in the kitchen.

The device also features Bluetooth connectivity for quick sound streaming, and an auxiliary jack (you can use it as a vintage amp for a guitar)

History of the radio

Imperatorwas a branch of Reela launched at the dawn of the 40's. Reela manufactured radios from 1942 to the 1980s. Their innovative design, rooted in the Art Deco movement, quickly allowed the company to grow to occupy an important place in France and in North Africa. Their first factory was located on Rue des Pyrenees in Paris, it moved to the 18th arrondissement in 1950 and other factories were opened, while Reela, in addition to its own models of radios and record players, manufactured radios for other brands. In the late 1950s, Reela diversified into television and car radio models, and the venture continued until the 1980s.
