Blaupunkt Hamburg SQM 23 DAB Single DIN Mechless Bluetooth Receiver

The Blaupunkt Hamburg SQM 23 DAB blends vintage charm with cutting-edge features, bringing the iconic 1983 model back to life—only smarter. This Single DIN Mechless Bluetooth Receiver nails the retro look while packing all the modern tech you'd expect in today’s rides.

A Nod to the '80s With a Tech Upgrade

Styled just like the original Hamburg SQM 23, this radio revives the classic vibe with warm white LED-lit keys, an amber glow modeled after the old-school bulbs, and that unmistakable minimalist design. It looks the part, but under the hood, it’s built for today’s needs—with Variocolour LCD lighting, a sleek front flap, and a compact body that fits neatly into older vehicles.

Rock-Solid Radio Performance

Built with Blaupunkt’s top-tier CODEM IV world tuner and a DAB+ digital tuner, this unit delivers crisp, stable reception across FM, AM, and DAB bands. It supports Radiotext, traffic functions, automatic time updates, and multiple memory banks to store your favorite stations. Everything’s designed for fast access and clear sound, even on the move.

Media Playback, Simplified

Whether you’re plugging in a USB drive, connecting an iPhone, or browsing your folders, the Blaupunkt Hamburg SQM 23 DAB has your music needs sorted. It handles most audio formats—including MP3, FLAC, WAV, and AAC—and hides short USB sticks discreetly behind the front flap to maintain that original look. You can repeat, shuffle, or scan tracks with ease, and display options like artist, album, and playtime keep things organized.

Bluetooth Streaming and Voice Control

The built-in Bluetooth 5.0 lets you stream music directly from your phone or take calls through the internal or external microphone. Pairing is quick, and the system reconnects automatically to the last five devices. Voice assistant support makes it easy to cue up music or ask for directions without lifting a finger.

Personalized Look and Feel

With a 4,096-color LCD display, you can match the Blaupunkt Hamburg SQM 23 DAB’s lighting to your vehicle’s interior. It supports manual or auto day/night modes and features a dim function for low-light driving. Even when the car’s off, the buttons stay subtly lit to blend into your dashboard perfectly.

Punchy Sound, Your Way

Crank up the volume with a 4 x 50W output, or fine-tune the balance and fader settings to suit your taste. Whether you're into bass-heavy beats or clean classical tones, the sound presets and loudness feature let you dial in the right profile for every drive.

Optimized for Vintage Cars

This radio isn’t just for show—it’s designed to fit classic cars with limited installation depth. All the functionality is built into a compact body, and the packaging even mirrors the original release to complete the retro experience.

Smart Features That Just Work

• Two USB ports (front + rear) for flexible media use
• Permanent memory keeps settings safe even without power
• Favorite button for instant access to your preferred source
• Steering wheel control compatibility for easy integration
• Software updates via USB to keep things running smoothly

If you’re looking to relive that old-school driving experience without sacrificing today’s convenience, the Blaupunkt Hamburg SQM 23 DAB nails it.
