NOS Isophon Diamant 2000 Bookshelf Speakers Vintage Germany for Telefunken NR:
$150.00

New old stock Isophon Diamant 2000 speakers. I bought these speakers from Walter Odemer when he closed his store in Burbank, California. I have multiple sets. Cabinets measure 5" wide x 8" high x 5.5" deep.Large heatsink on the back of the speaker box.
Comes in original, but tatty box.Packed for shipping in styrofoam. In original plastic bags.
Marked Made in Germany
Comes with original speaker grills, but there is an issue. They are super crumbly. Immediately upon taking them out of the tissue paper, they begin to deteriorate.
If you are ambitious, you could replace the foam.
As you can see, the foam is not salvageable. Luckily, the backing plate is perforated aluminum.
The old foam comes off easily and the reverse is perfect. The cabinets are made of some sort of hard plastic. The plastic Isophon logos pull right out of the foam and can be remounted on the silver aluminum grills. Very much of a Braun look.
Though 4 ohm, I have used them on 8 ohm systems and they sound fantastic. According to the internet, these were made from 1978-1982. Comes with 13 feet of speaker cable of 16 or 18 gauge. Not 15'! Not 12', but a perfect German 13'. Typical German speaker plug as found on Telefunkens and Grundigs. Use as is or clip and strip the wires.
Comes with completely inadequate hanging hardware. Or maybe it is adequate in Germany, but not earthquake riddled Los Angeles.
Instructions included! In German! French! And English! "Dear Friend of Hi Fi..." If you have read this far, I would say that it is safe to assume that you are a friend of Hi Fi.
Can be picked up from Coco's Variety, an idiosyncratic bicycle store in Los Angeles that sells new and used bikes. We are located at 2427 Riverside Drive, Los Angeles, CA 90039. Will ship in original Isophon box, so there will be shipping labels affixed.
