Description

Vintage Bluetooth Record-Player

Art Deco record player equipped with Bluetooth to enjoy, in addition to records, your playlists and songs from your favorite music platform, as well as a recording function to digitize your precious vinyls.

Il contient un amplificateur stéréo 160 W de classe D allié à deux hauts-parleurs de 80 W chacun (le haut-parleur original avait une puissance de 1W !). Sur le panneau arrière, des molettes permettent d’ajuster les graves/aigus pour corriger les pertes de qualité des vinyles âgés.

The turntable is a Radiohm Malette M2000 with a restored motor, new needle and cartridge, and new drive wheel from original factory stocks. It can play 16, 33, 45 and 78 rpm. The 50's French turntables were designed to play mono and stereo records, so the swivel cartridge contains two matching needles and allows the playback of modern recordings.

Its auxiliary jack allows you to connect to it via wire (and make it a vintage amp for an electric guitar), it's also equipped with an FM tuner.

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.

Radiohm a été fondée en 1934 à Paris. Ils fabriquèrent d’abord des pièces pour postes TSF mais se lancèrent rapidement dans la conception de tourne-disques. Après guerre, ils s’établirent à Montreuil. Ils fabriquèrent des tourne-disques tout au long des années 50 puis s’aventurèrent dans les lecteurs de cassette. Au cours de la décennie suivante, ils retournèrent à leurs origines et se spécialisèrent à nouveau dans les pièces de postes radio, le business de l’audio changeait trop rapidement pour qu’une petite entreprise puisse suivre le rythme. Ils sont toujours en activité et sont reconnus dans le monde entier pour leurs potentiomètres.
