I'm picking it up today so I haven't had a chance to play with it yet. Mine has the remote speaker as well that you can put up to 20 feet away from the main stereo. I also got a bunch of old 78 records too. It's not exactly the same as this one, but darn near close. Shortwave radio and turntable look the same but the cabinet looks a little different in the front...mostly bottom part where the speakers are. What do you think the value of mine would be... considering MINT ??Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6909174152211104663.post-46869805498955434662014-07-01T17:27:03.110-04:002014-07-01T17:27:03.110-04:00Recently received a Telefunken wien III u console ...Recently received a Telefunken wien III u console it also has a radio,record player.

Mine has a Stereo-Zweikanal-Verstärker (likely either an S80 or an S81 model) tube amplifier and two satellite speakers that connect to the amp. My amp also has a button for a reel-to-reel but I'm not sure my unit originally came with one. <br /><br />I see from the pic of the manual you included that you've got a Hymnus Hi-Fi Model 5116 Wk. Since the model 5014 Wk came out in 1960 or so, I would bet you're right about giving your model a date of c1962. <br /><br />Enjoy your purchase, it's gorgeous.

I'm always on the lookout for nice modern lined stereo cabinets working or not. And modern lined credenzas, especially with sliding or tambour front load doors are hard to come by and sell quickly.

I always pass them up simply because of the real estate they take up and the old technology can be a nightmare. They did build quality speakers though. Can't wait to see how yours turns out.Davidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13646463582447530152noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6909174152211104663.post-67898641699508538062013-01-14T22:35:34.672-05:002013-01-14T22:35:34.672-05:00It was indeed a nice find and it's cleaning up...It was indeed a nice find and it's cleaning up nicely. I'll likely take to our local audio pros to try and bring the turntable up to speed if it doesn't run too high. Always have customers looking for sliding door credezas and this is so much more!
