Don't know but it is not B&O at all and is very expensive!

It's a Philips set from the early 60's, featuring a stereo ECL86 output stage and an optional stereo decoder. Some of these were made at the Philips plant in Copenhagen AFAIK. I have seen the tabletop version in a second hand store this week for £20.-

It looks like this, though with extra buttons on top of the dial

Vinyl records, cassettes, open reel, valve amplifiers and film photography.

Actually, the furniture itself could be B&O but that's where it ends.
Come on, Replica 1942 in Stereo ?

Very optimistic price, even for an original B&O Grand Prix 42.

Martin, I couldn't agree more.

The cabinet looks very much like an old B&O one.

Here's a picture of my Grand Prix 41 Chatol.

And a very nice piece that is.
Just what you would enjoy listening to while brewing the sunday morning coffee.
