Model 88 table top radio by Henry Kloss in excellent condition
A fine piece of audio equipment.
One review:
"What I noticed instantly about the Model 88 was its surprisingly natural tonal balance.
At low volume levels, there's a strong impression of listening to live music from a distance.
The power range of an orchestra is given full weight with believable mid and upper bass richness.
And most surprising of all is the punch and tightness of bass lines.
Providing that the volume level isn't cranked too high, the midrange retains sufficient clarity and headroom even on large-scale orchestral music.
The treble range maintains a natural character, without the brightness and harmonic irritation endemic to this product genre.
Most importantly, soprano voice retains sufficient purity and expressive nuance to please even hard-core audiophiles.
Why a table radio, you ask? Well, if you like to listen to music while in the kitchen, bedroom, or office, a table radio is sufficiently compact and affordable to fit the bill.
My interest in this product stems form the fact that I presently spend more time per day in the office with a table radio than I do at home with my kilobuck high-end system.
If you don't know who Audio Hall of Fame's Henry Kloss is, you simply haven't been around audio long enough.
No, he isn't 88 years old yet, but he's clearly one of the grand daddies of audio and video innovation in the US with a remarkable career than spans many decades.
Kloss has had the good fortune of being positioned at the center of several seminal audio companies.
Let me refresh your memory by rolling the calendar back to 1952.
