Offered is „Response D30S“ by ProAC as second-hand device from the category „Standing Speaker“ on audio-markt.de - the online market place for high-end. The advert with the number 9239416731 ends on 31.10.2026 at 10:00 o'clock.
€5,100 is ambitious against the current used market: it sits well above the €3,183 75th percentile and more than double the €2,100 median, so this is priced at a premium rather than a fair-market level.
That said, this is a respected compact monitor with a strong reputation for natural midrange, clean imaging, and easy musicality, so the appeal is real if the pair is genuinely tidy and complete. At this money I’d want clear evidence of excellent condition, original drivers, and well-kept cosmetics; if it checks those boxes, it can still make sense for a buyer who specifically wants this sound, but it is not a bargain.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
ProAc stands for Professional Acoustics, a British loudspeaker manufacturer founded in 1979 by Stewart Tyler. The brand emerged from Tyler's earlier venture, Celef Audio, which he established in 1973 to develop compact speakers with extended bass response and refined treble. Based in Borehamwood, Hertfordshire, ProAc was formally launched after Tyler discovered superior drive units manufactured by ATC, which prompted him to establish a dedicated brand for higher-quality designs. The company relocated to a dedicated factory in Brackley in 1990, where production continues today. Despite Tyler's passing in 2021, ProAc remains a family-run operation committed to his original vision.
ProAc specializes exclusively in loudspeakers across multiple categories, from compact standmount designs to larger floor-standing models. The brand is recognized for its signature product lines, including the Tablette, Response, and K-Series ranges. Their standmount speakers, particularly the Response DB1 and its updated DB1R variant, have achieved particular acclaim for delivering performance that belies their compact dimensions. ProAc's design philosophy emphasizes bespoke drivers, high-quality crossovers, and carefully constructed cabinets engineered for natural sound reproduction.
ProAc occupies the premium segment of the hi-fi market, positioning itself as a high-end specialist rather than a mass-market manufacturer. The brand is known for refusing to compromise on quality, with Tyler famously stating that ProAc does not make cheap speakers or cheap sounds. This commitment to excellence at reasonable prices has earned ProAc a devoted following among audiophiles, sound engineers, and music producers worldwide, establishing it as a respected boutique manufacturer with over five decades of heritage in loudspeaker design.
