Opinions On Telefunken Opus 7
#10

I have 2 Opus 7's, one of each cabinet style. They are incredible sounding radios and I recapped both. The light knobs are difficult to find. The plastic on the white knobs crack where the set screws are located, so many knobs have been replaced or are missing.
Make sure the pushbutton section is well cleaned or you will get pops or intermitent contacts. They are very different to recap then US radios and the wiring seems to go everywhere. Great sets when restored!
