Description
The 1963 Siemens range consisted of three models. Model 10, 12 and 14. All were 3-speed, 3-head recorders with a 7″ spool capacity, single motor and sound-on-sound facilities – the primary difference between models was in cabinetry and speaker arrangement.
Model 10 carried a single internal 9¾ x 2¾inch elliptical speaker, Model 12 (pictured) had two speakers and Model 14 was similar to Model 10 but with no cover or handle,obviously intended for fitting into an existing hi-fi cabinet.
