Anyone who drives a classic or vintage car usually does so not only to get from A to B, but also to enjoy the driving experience typical of the era - not least with the right music.
The new car radio from Blaupunkt fits inconspicuously into the cockpit of most 1980s classics, as it is based on the Blaupunkt Hamburg SQM 23 from 1983. This visual integration into the dashboard plays a major role, especially for registration as a historic vehicle with an H license plate or veteran status. Many inspectors criticize a modern-looking radio when assessing the original or contemporary condition of a vehicle that is worth preserving. With the Hamburg SQM 23, the '80s look is retained, but at the same time modern technologies are waiting to be used behind the facade.
The Hamburg SQM 23 DAB offers:
- Blaupunkt high-end Codem IV world tuner for FM, AM, DAB and DAB+ with high sound quality
- Radio text/DLS and traffic prioritization
- alphabetical DAB station list
- Automatic storage of stations
- two USB ports
- MP2, MP3, WMA, FLAC, M4A (AAC), APE and WAV
- DIN-1 format
- integrated Bluetooth interface for telephone and audio
- compatible with voice assistants from Apple, Google and Co.
- 4-channel preamplifier output
- 4 x 50 watts output power
- remote control
The Blaupunkt Hamburg SQM 23 DAB is now available in various online stores, at bpautomotive and from specialist dealers at an RRP of 399 euros. Blaupunkt is thus expanding its portfolio of retro car radios after the "Blaupunkt Bremen SQR 46 DAB" and the new edition of the 90s classic "Frankfurt RCM 82 DAB" with a further model.
