About this radio

Bang & Olufsen DIRIGENT 609K, made in Denmark in 1963. It was designed by Ib Fabiansen and received the prestigious IF Design Award in 1963. This award highlights its outstanding combination of Danish industrial design and tube audio technology, making it an iconic piece in the history of high-end audio equipment. The radio has the original BEOVOX 500 speakers from Bang&Olufsen in TOP condition. The speakers are made in elegant palisander wood and the radio has a palisander wood trim. This is because it was called "Dirigent Palisander" The radio has been carefully overhauled and restored by a professional technician. All critical components that were worn or at risk of failure have been replaced, while remaining true to the original design. Thanks to this meticulous restoration process, the radio functions perfectly, just as it did in 1963, and is ready to be enjoyed for many years to come. Unique warranty in the market.
