Grundig, maybe?
EDIT: Grundig TK830?

Whatever it is, I really like the little zippered pouch in the top cover for the mics and cables

It is a Grundig, I think - my older cousin had one when I was a kid. The case was different, but I remember the zip. My temporary uncle (the guy who was around with his mother at the time) was a merchant sailor and gave me a tape recorder which he said was used on a ship. Whether they threw it away or he "liberated" it, I don't know. It was a Brenell. I can remember recording Top of the Pops off the BBC from the TV's speaker via a little crystal mic. I can also remember my cousin and I recording my mother snoring while asleep in her chair and her saying we had faked it. The recorder was in really bad shape, and it was in a wooden case with a hinged lid covered with sticky back plastic covering in a sort of fake marble pattern. On Googling, I think the wooden case was a mod and my closest memory is this:

Ah, Grundig, good sleuthing Mark. I like the two foam dots on the lid's inside so any reels can be held when the case is closed.

I liked that as well. Not exactly pocket material those tape reels. -

I dunno, man -- I've got some cargo pants that could probably swallow up a 10-1/2" NAB-hub reel.
Likewise -- another nice touch. It's a pretty keen looking piece of hardware in its own, oh-so-German way.KennethSwauger wrote: »Ah, Grundig, good sleuthing Mark. I like the two foam dots on the lid's inside so any reels can be held when the case is closed.
The Sony 777 family has (had) something similar, FWIW.
oops, nope -- scratch that.

Starbucks wouldn't let the rover use the rest room without buying a Grande coffee -- and the rover was told it could just forget about using the WiFi.

Oh, I should mention -- I am pretty sure those AKAI speakers are TL cabinets loaded with rather nice Fostex "fullrange" 4" drivers (akin to the famous/infamous Radio Shack 40-1197/Fostex FE-103 drivers).
Now:
I see your AKAI and raise you pair of "Horrortones".
