Description

The Darclee 4 S 641 A2 is a mains-powered tube radio receiver designed and made by Electronica in Bucharest in the first half of the 1960s [1]. It is a construction variant of the Darclee S 622 A, built from modules wired on printed circuits, with separate bass and treble controls [1].

In the source table, sensitivity is given on medium waves for 0.5 W output, selectivity for a signal ±9 kHz (AM) or ±300 kHz (FM) away, the audio frequency response at 1 MHz within 6 dB, and output power at no more than 10% distortion; the quality classes are only indicative, based on IEC recommendations and the Soviet GOST 5651/1951, as Romania had no such standard at the time [1].
