Grundig C-200 (circa 1968)
Not much is documented about the Grundig C-200. What survives comes from a single period review in Studio-Sound (December 1968, p.55). The reviewer examined the unit and measured its acoustic response by recording bands of filtered white noise and playing them back through the built-in speaker. The very small cabinet curtailed the bass, but the response was reasonably level from 400 Hz to 8 kHz.
The same review also mentions a 3 kHz tone recorded and played back into a wow and flutter meter. That suggests the C-200 was a tape recorder, likely a compact portable with an integrated speaker, which fits Grundig's track record in portable audio from the late 1960s. Past this brief assessment, no specifications, dimensions, original price, or production dates have been located.
