Description
A slightly later version of the TK1 ‘Luxus’ , the TK2 seems to only have been available in the European market. No record of it exists in any of the UK or American catalogs or yearbooks.
The TK2 didn’t differ greatly from the earlier version, the most noticeable difference was the introduction of two separate controls on the lower right of the panel marked ‘Lautstäker’ (volume) and ‘Klang’ (tone). The function knob on the left hand side was also different.
The specifications and performance appear to be identical apart from a 3dB increase in s/n ratio..
