About this seller
Product description
The “Radio Cubo” cube radio TS 502 is designed by Zanuso & Sapper for Brionvega. Marco Zanuso and Richard Sapper, who have also designed for Mercedes Benz and IBM. The radio is a cult design and a 60s and 70s icon object. Thanks to its particularly functional and innovative design, it was, as such, chosen as an iconic object to be put on display in the most important contemporary art museums of the world. It can be found, for example, at the Museum of Modern Art (MOMA) in New York as a part of the permanent collection.
The receiver high frequency section is inside the right box and the audio section with the speaker is located on the left one. In the hinges, provided with appropriate grooves, pass the junction cables that connect the two boxes. The speaker is an Italian IREL and together with a well-planned audio amplifier, it gives a “warm” and really pleasant sound. The power requirements are supplied by six 1.5 V batteries type C (or R14) for a total of 9 V DC. The dimensions are: 23 x 13 x 13 cm.
This “Radio Cubo” comes from its first owner and is fully operational. The attachments of the battery door are broken but this can easily be fixed with a simple tape. Other than this, the radio is in a clean and excellent condition. An unmissable collector's item for every design lover.
