Design Ideologies
It’s true to state that Blaupunkt’s Bremen series receivers have attained somewhat of a cult status over the years. Finished with an elegantly stylish European retro look rather than something out of Star Wars; the latest Bremen SQR 46 DAB is a true leader amounts single DIN non-screen receivers. Yet despite this, Balupunkt just keeps improving upon it, the latest being the most impressive hitherto!
An Astute Heritage
First released in 1986, over the years the receivers saddled with the Bremen moniker have taken many physical forms, however for the SQR 46 DAB Blaupunkt has has chosen to reinterpret the original design, bringing back the older retro look but packing it with modern technologies and functionality. The result is impressive to say the least.
Age And Beauty
Returning to a simpler design, the latest evolution of the Bremen is modeled upon the styling and lines of the original; though now featuring modern vario-colour lighting for the buttons and the display. Thus allowing your unit not only to look period correct and right at home in your dash, but also match your existing dash light colour.
Interactivity And Connectivity
The SQR 46 DAB enjoys first-class reception courtesy of Blaupunkt’s advanced CODEM IV radio tuner and DAB+ digital tuner chip-sets. The unit also features numerous serial digital interfaces such as twin USB ports, an auxiliary connection and an SD card port. It also has a vastly improved Bluetooth chip-set which allows not only for telephony but also the streaming of audio from your smart device.
Dead Battery Protection
In what is a true rarity these days, all settings are saved permanently even if the battery is disconnected.
Short Throw Chassis
The SQR 46 DAB has a shallow installation depth of 110 mm; ideal for modern dash cavities that’re already packed full of OEM components.
