Vintage Murphy 188 Radio Repurposed as a Bluetooth Speaker

Step back in time with this stunning Vintage 1950s Murphy radio, lovingly converted into a modern Bluetooth speaker with a touch of vintage charm. Manufactured in Welwyn Garden during the early-1950s, this beautiful valve radio has been impeccably preserved and is in excellent condition overall.

Experience the best of both worlds as this iconic radio seamlessly blends the past with the present. It has been expertly transformed into a Bluetooth speaker, utilizing the original speaker alongside a new Bluetooth amplifier and power supply. While the dials may no longer be functional, their timeless appeal remains intact.

To enhance its visual appeal, I have added warm LED lighting, which delicately illuminates the radio, casting a soft glow that complements its vintage aesthetic.

All of the original internal components have been preserved, providing the option for future restoration if desired. So, whether you choose to revel in its retro charm or restore it to its former glory, the choice is yours.

The loudspeaker features an 8 inch Permanent Magnet Dynamic (PDyn) design, delivering exceptional audio quality.
