Schaub Lorenz Stereovox-S 50s 60s Floorstanding Side Table Speaker Walnut
Located in Kumhausen, DE
A piece of German history: a Stereovox-S 688-2 floorstanding side table speaker built between 1961 and 1964 The roots of the German brand Schaub Lorenz can be found in the entrepreneurial spirit and visionary mind of Carl Lorenz. Being the first to use steam engines for the industrial production of Morse code apparatuses, the engineer, inventor and founder started the legacy of this iconic brand in 1880. Under the name C. Lorenz AG the company grew to be a worldwide pioneer in radio technology in the 1920ies. It was leading the development of wireless communication in all important fields such as airplane navigation, radio broadcasting, telephony or teleprinters. The company developed one of the most advanced cypher machines used for krypted messaging . Schaub-Lorenz was founded in 1921 in Berlin under G. Schaub Apparatebau-Gesellschaft m.b.H. The company became pioneering in the history of radio, being the first to take the production of home receivers and other communication products to an industrial level. Right from the start the mission was clear: to make innovative technology affordable for the larger public. With the introduction of the “Illustra”, the first 14” color TV in 1952 began the great course of the Schaub Lorenz brand as a leading home entertainment marque. Again the company was at the forefront of innovation developing iconic designs for TV-sets, radios, sound systems and producing one of the first gaming consoles for international markets. they still expanded and in 1967 they became the biggest German manufacturer for portable radio sets. The company - or better the name Schaub-Lorenz was sold in 1986 - the decade of the end of many traditional German consumer electronics goods companies. --- a real loss. ----- I may highly recommend to use a vintage radio...

Mid-Century Modern Wifi Speaker: Bose 901 Redux
By bose
Located in Philadelphia, PA
This 901 redux began as a 1970 era Bose 901 carcass that was reconstructed into a high dispersion, two-way bass reflect wireless speaker. An onboard 50-watt amplifier provides power and a cannibalized Sonos control system manages equalization and streaming. The speaker enclosure is refinished in satin tung oil and fitted with acoustically transparent natural linen grill. The 901 redux delivers digital streaming convenience and a midcentury aesthetic. How does the 901 redux sound? Remarkably analog in warmth and clarity. This is due, in part, to the sonic characteristics of wood composite versus plastic --and the high quality of the Danish made Peerless drivers. Performance is enhanced by Sonos Trueplay that optimizes EQ for each unique acoustic space. If you do not agree simply return the speaker for a full refund. We offer free white glove in home delivery...

According to The Rolling Stones Hardcover Table Book
Located in North Hollywood, CA
The Rolling Stones, ACCORDING TO THE ROLLING STONES. California: Chronicle Books, 2003. First Edition; First Printing. Hardcover. Large Hardcover Book. 12 X 9 X 1.6 inches; 360 pages. Printed signatures of all of them, great collectible Rock N Roll hardcover coffee table book. Title: According to the Rolling Stones Publisher: Music Sales Publication Date: 2003 Binding: Hardcover Synopsis: Here's the inside story: the history of the Rolling Stones - according to the Rolling Stones. Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, Charlie Watts, and Ronnie Wood have come together for this remarkable project. They've also opened up their personal and band archives to include many rare and intimate images that are interwoven with the text. The book gets right to the heart of what makes the Stones the Stones, as musicians, songwriters, performers, and colleagues. They describe how their music has evolved and how it has affected and changed their lives. They also reveal, with refreshing frankness, how their own lives have helped, or hindered, their music-making. The Stones' own words - insightful, funny, poignant, surprising, and above all, completely authentic - are complemented by insider reflections from key players in their story over the years such as Ahmet Ertegun, David Bailey, and Cameron Crowe. A comprehensive reference section including discography, and chronology, studded with the Stones' personal comments on the music and memories, completes this must-read volume. Here, in their own words and images, is the life and work of a band which has played the soundtrack of our lives for the last forty years. According to the Rolling Stones hews closely to the formula set in 2000 by the publication of The Beatles Anthology. Like its predecessor, it's a beautiful coffee table tome with hundreds of gorgeous photographs, from childhood pics of Mick Jagger and Keith Richards to concert shots from the 40 Licks Tour. The text is taken from recent interviews with the band's four latter-day members (Mick, Keith, Charlie Watts, and Ronnie Wood). Notably missing, however, is any contribution from former bassist Bill Wyman, who left the band in the early '90s and published his own history of the band in 2002, Rolling with the Stones. Where Wyman is an obsessive collector and diarist, the other Stones are more impressionistic in their memories, lending an approach to history as casual as the band’s concerts are rigorously planned and staged. The first half of the Stones story has plenty of high drama (tours through the segregated South, Brian Jones's death, Altamont), which no one seems eager to reflect on deeply. (Charlie is the only one even to mention Altamont.) The more recent years has seen a long string of ever-more-successful tours and ever-less-popular albums, interrupted only by Mick and Keith’s near divorce in the '80s, plus rehab stints for Charlie and Ronnie. While The Beatles Anthology offered the surviving members' interpretations of their experiences at a distance of 30 or more years, the Stones are still living the tale they're trying to tell--and they aren’t always the most self-aware narrators. Or generous: Wyman's three-decade tenure is given short shrift, but the book finds enough space for some unnecessary digs (Wyman has "tiny hands," we're told, and an "almost effeminate" style of playing). To flesh out the band members' own recollections, the book also contains 13 essays from music-industry friends (Ahmet Ertegun, Marshall Chess), collaborators (Don Was), famous fans (Sheryl Crow...

Antique and Vintage Musical Instruments

Pay tribute to a history of rich and diverse musical traditions that have taken shape all over the world by decorating your home with a collection of antique and vintage musical instruments.

Whether you’re playing them or merely displaying them, vintage musical instruments, when cared for properly, can be a wonderful addition to any space. At between four and five feet in length, an elegant early-1900s Steinway & Sons baby grand piano will undoubtedly steal the show if you’re thinking of yielding some precious real estate to one of these American classics, but maybe you’re simply shopping for art to warm the bare walls of your new apartment or weekend home.

For your living room, maybe you’ve already hunted down portraits by Gered Mankowitz, a celebrated 1960s-era photographer who spent his life capturing iconic images of music’s biggest stars. If you’ve got more space to work with there — or perhaps you need some entertainment room ideas — consider positioning an old guitar as a focal point. If a room has no distinguishing architectural features, you could create a prominent focal point with trending paint colors, stylish shelving, an arrangement of flowers or by wall-mounting a spectacularly aging early-20th-century guitar or other stringed instrument.

Alternatively, much in the way that you might group a collection of artwork to hang salon-style, with a little help from strong hanging wire or some wall hooks, vintage brass instruments such as a gong, French horn or trumpet can help elevate a home office or complement the efforts you’ve made to ensure a welcoming vibe in your home’s entryway. Bells or antique wind instruments can add provocative metallic contrasts to dark woods as tabletop decorative objects. Think of them as eye-catching ornamental flourishes that you can bring to end tables in a common area, to the top of a desk or to a mid-century storage cabinet.

Bring culture and creativity into your space with decades-old plywood tabletop radios or musical instruments from all over the world — be they drums from Africa or harps from France. Even if you’re not exactly getting the band back together, we can promise that the range of antique and vintage instruments on 1stDibs can help strike a meaningful chord in your interior design plan.
