Grundig 2200 (1968)
Not much is documented about the Grundig 2200. What exists appears under the fuller model designation TK2200, a battery-powered mono tape recorder. Studio-Sound (December 1968, p.49) ran a brief equipment review with the manufacturer's specs. Frequency range is 40 Hz - 15 kHz at 9.5 cm/s. Signal-to-noise ratio is 47 dB. Wow and flutter is rated at ±0.25%. Power came from six batteries.
An advertisement from the same period described the TK2200 as offering “perfect-recording playback anywhere.” That suggests Grundig positioned it as a portable machine for field or casual use. No further details on its construction, release date, or market lifespan have been found.

- Frequency range: 40 Hz–15 kHz
