A Brief History of Blaupunkt:

In 1932 the first European car radio from the Ideal company, the model Blaupunkt AS-5, laid the foundation for the current automotive sound systems. That voluminous apparatus for medium and long wave took up nearly ten litres of space more than sixty years ago. Special car antennas did not exist. The usual antenna wire was stretched under the roof or under the floorboards. Due to its capacity this great-grand-father of the car radios could not be placed within the driver’s reach. A remote control by the steering wheel was the perfect answer back then – an apparatus limited to only comfortable top-end cars nowadays. This car radio was 465 Reichsmark and so one third of the price for a small car. In the 1920's Blaupunkt still had another name. In 1923 - when radio broadcasting made its first sound in Germany – the “Ideal” company was founded in Berlin. It first produced headphones. Every single item was carefully tested by technicians and labeled with a quality symbol – the blue point. A quality symbol turns into a trademark. Blaupunkt is a leading brand for car radios in many parts of the world particularly in Europe. Blaupunkt represents quality and innovative power.
