Roksan Kandy KA-1 integrerad förstärkare i silver med flera ingångar för t.ex. CD, tuner och phono. Har skruvterminaler för högtalare och vanliga RCA-anslutningar på baksidan.
A solid mid-tier integrated from a brand people still chase for musical, lively sound. At kr3,500, it sits essentially on top of the kr3,472 median and just above the kr3,475 75th percentile, so this is fair pricing, not a bargain, but also not stretched.
What makes it appealing is the Kandy’s reputation for punchy, engaging drive and an easy-to-like presentation that suits real-world speakers well. If it’s clean, fully working, and comes with the right remote or original extras, that adds real value here. At this price, I’d mainly want confirmation that all inputs, the volume pot, and one channel balance are healthy, since older integrateds are most often judged on condition rather than specs.

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.
