Is an unmodified R-75 a better radio than an
unmodified Grundig Mellinium 800 or vias/versa?

If you're a DXer, then you should obviously go for the R-75.

If you're a broadcast listener,l then you should go for the R-75 plus
a reasonably priced external speaker.

The R-75 and the Satellit are close enough in price that the vastly
greater capabilities of the R-75 make this an easy choice, at least in
my view.
