Superb high-end tube stereo record player from Teppaz. The "448" is a rather rare device because, at the time of its production in 1959, when it was introduced into Teppaz's range of record players, it was very expensive.
Its tube amplifier (it has 6 tubes of type ECL82 and EF86) develops a power of 2x 6 watts with remarkable sound quality, 6 loudspeakers in its lids acting as adjustable baffles on its feet. 2 210mm full-range loudspeakers and one piezo tweeter per lid. This device has 2 sockets for additional loudspeakers.
Its controls include: potentiometers for adjusting the volume and also serving as an on/off switch, potentiometers for adjusting bass, potentiometers for adjusting treble, and potentiometers for balance. 2 correctors via switches, one for "medium/treble" frequencies and one for "ambiance/brilliance".
4-speed turntable: 16/33/45 and 78 rpm.
It has just been fully serviced, and all components (resistors and capacitors) have been replaced to ensure the best possible musical quality and reliability. The tubes have been tested. Its Teppaz stereo cartridge has been serviced and delivers good musical quality.
In terms of presentation, its leather-colored case is in very good condition, and its brass-style clasps and fittings are in good condition, with a few marks on the fittings. Its 2 speaker stands, which also serve as cable winder, are newly manufactured.
This symbol of the 60s, with its exceptional, warm, and powerful musicality, will be perfect for re-listening to your Johnny, Sheila, Elvis, Beatles, etc., vinyls, as well as today's artists like Calogero, Julien Doré, Bruno Mars, etc.
It will be provided with a color copy of its instruction manual and a plastic 45 rpm adapter. This is a heavy device and will be shipped in a secured package. It is possible to come and see and listen to it on site by appointment and take it with you.
