At £1,282, this sits a touch above the £1,042 median and just inside the upper half of the recent market, so it reads as fair-to-ambitious, not a steal; it is still below the point where I’d call it clearly overpriced, but it’s no bargain against the £970 / £1,288 spread. For a buyer, the main question is whether the condition and extras justify paying near the top end of the usual range.
The strength here is the model itself: the blak CD player is a respected, properly built Roksan source, typically bought by people who value a punchy, musical presentation and solid digital-transport fundamentals over flashy features. If it’s clean, fully working, and comes with the remote, original packaging, or recent servicing, that would make the ask easier to swallow; without those, I’d want a little more room on price.

Roksan emerged in London in 1985, founded by Tufan Hashemi and Touraj Moghaddam, two Persian-heritage graduates of Imperial College London and Queen Mary College. Dissatisfied with prevailing turntable designs, they launched the groundbreaking Xerxes platform at that year's hi-fi show, challenging traditional construction and establishing the brand's reputation for radical innovation. Named after Roxana, daughter of Persian King Darius, Roksan infused its identity with cultural roots while rooting itself firmly in British audio engineering.
The brand specializes in high-fidelity components, starting with its iconic analog vinyl replay systems like the Xerxes turntable and Artemiz tonearm. It expanded into amplifiers (Kandy, Attessa, Caspian series), CD players, digital sources, and speakers, blending timeless design with robust engineering. Now hand-built in Rayleigh, Essex, under the Monitor Audio Group since 2016, products like the latest Caspian Series 4G cater to both vinyl enthusiasts and modern streamers.
Roksan occupies a distinctive niche in the high-end hi-fi market as a stylish British disruptor, prized for its boundary-pushing sound quality, reliability, and unconventional aesthetics. Far from mid-tier or vintage obscurity, it commands respect among discerning buyers seeking musical soul over conformity, with a legacy revitalized rather than diluted by its corporate home.
