What is a V72r?

[Michael Tibes]

Does anyone know, how the 'r' models differ from a normal V72?

Never heard of this one. Do you mean the V72t? This is a Transistor version. Infos are over here (scroll down to Braunbuchbeschreibungen):

I've only heard of the v72, v72a, v72s and the v72t.

No, I really mean V72r. Gotta be something pretty unusual obviously.

Obviously gotta be something pretty unusual. It looks lika a normal V72 from outside, haven't compared the inside yet. It's definitely tube, looks like the usual 2 EF804S. The one I just looked at has a serial number in the 5000 range, but I wonder if they had seperate numbering for the 'r' version. If at least 5000 of these were made, someone should have heard of them before.

what´s goin´on???

Wow..someone else with a V72r, friend of mine bought one from Dave Marquette about 7 years ago. We never heard anything about its place in history, even Oliver never heard of one when I talked to him a few years back.
I believe they had the same tube compliment as the 72a, there wasnt EF804's in his. Many times I've checked the engraving to see if I was imagining the "r" but it really is. Maybe remotely controllable in some fashion?
Who knows...interesting though.

Cheers and great forum,

Do you guys have any photos of the (really mean) "V72r"?

 

[synthiaks]

Remote in german is "Fern" so i dont think the r has something to do with "Fernbedinung" maybe "Rundfunk"? But i guess most of the normal V72s were also used in Broadcast so who knows...

 

[Vitaliano]

Hi, I have the same question many years later.I hope someone can answer: Which version is the v72r?Rundfunk maybe? like a special made to order for the german broadcast or...I don´t know.Please help if someone has an answer.
I have a V72r in the 5000 serail number that i bought from h&e studiotechnik (I think the Vertigo guys...).It was sold to me as a normal v72 and it sounds like a normal v72 ( I did compare it witn an other ), but I cannot find any info about the "r".Thanks

I don't think the r stands for Rundfunk (broadcast), since all V72 were more or less intended for radio and TV studio use.

Can you please show some photos from the outside and inside? I would be interested in that.

Here is a photo from the front.
