I have an old Blaupunkt Atlanta SQR 47 kicking around that is surplus to requirements. It came out of a friend's old Merc (can't remember what model) about ten years ago when a CD player was fitted. It has four channels, there is a DIN type preamp output on the back and also a sticker on the top of the casing with all the wiring info. Here's a pic (from google image search - not my actual unit):  Is it a decent unit, and thus worth trying to sell, or is it simply best thrown away next time I take a load of stuff to the tip? |

I've a few quid here for it if you're selling?

in a word yes it is worth good money, so don't give it away for peanuts. If you want the best possible price for it write a really good advert and crack it on ebay.

I've a few quid here for it if you're selling? Probably, but will have to check if it works first.... in a word yes it is worth good money, so don't give it away for peanuts. If you want the best possible price for it write a really good advert and crack it on ebay. Thanks for the info! Does that mean it is a decent quality unit then? I know very little about stereos of this era, but acquired it as I liked the simple, unobtrusive appearance. Cheers, however saw that already and tbh, I don't trust it as a true indication of value, as breakers frequently ask wildly optimistic prices for obsolete stuff. |

It is a pretty accurate asking price. I have often seen them make £100+ from 99p no reserve auctions. They were top spec radios in their day, often found in high end german cars, porsche, merc, bmw.
They still make for good sound quality now

So that I can test it, which way round are the speaker connections? It appears to have unique to Blaupunkt connector plugs for the speakers, with no markings as to which side is positive and which is negative.
