Blaupunkt Bremen SQR-46 DAB Car Stereo AM, FM, USB, SD, DAB+ and Bluetooth
Back to the future: The relaunched cult car radio 'Bremen SQR-46 DAB' with many new features! Over the years, some models have become true cult objects, like the legendary Blaupunkt Bremen SQR46 from the year 1986. Now Blaupunkt present the re-interpretation of the popular 1-DIN car radio and unite the unique features and styling of the 80s model with new technologies and functions. The result is the Blaupunkt Bremen SQR 46 DAB.
Its operating concept, the simple design and the crystal clear reception contributed significantly to the popularity of the original Bremen car radio. They have taken the styling of the original model over to the new edition, but at the same time added a modern Variocolour illumination for the buttons and the display. Thanks to Blaupunkt Codem FM RDS tuner and DAB+ digital tuner, the first-class reception remains one of the strengths of the new Youngtimer Car radio. New are the numerous interfaces, including two USB ports, an Aux port and an SDHC slot - even audio streaming via Bluetooth is feature for the returning legend!
The radio carries the 'Made for iPhone / iPod' certification and ensures appropriate compatibility, plus Bluetooth streams Android and other phones as well. All settings are permanently saved even when disconnected from the battery. An active DAB+ internal windscreen antenna is included. The new Bremen SQR 46 DAB has a shallow installation depth - ideal for classic cars with shortened installation slots. But not only the car radio itself takes the user on a journey through time, the packaging of the device has been elaborately designed and modelled on the original.
