Mycket välljudande I väldigt fint skick med fjärr och manual
This kr 6,000 SEK asking price is fair, sitting just above the median of kr 5,950 SEK for recent used SEK listings and well within the typical range of kr 5,030 SEK to kr 7,482 SEK. While the I22 has been superseded by newer I-series models, timing doesn’t penalize this deal; it’s a solid entry point into a respected Swedish integrated amp rather than a bargain, but certainly not ambitious.
The I22 remains well-regarded for its clean, detailed sound and robust 2×80W power, especially when paired with its optional DAC module for digital flexibility. At this price, it offers meaningful upside for buyers seeking a reliable, audiophile-grade integrated amp with built-in digital capability, provided the unit is in good working order. If it’s original-owner condition with the DAC included, this is a worthwhile buying opportunity in the current market.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Primare traces its origins to 1985, when Danish industrial designer and audiophile Bo Christensen, frustrated by the era's cluttered audio gear, founded the company alongside engineer Bent Nielsen. Born in Denmark as Primare Systems AB, it embodied a mission for exceptional sound quality, elegant Scandinavian aesthetics, precise proportions, and intuitive interfaces. Rejecting the industry's short product cycles, Primare pioneered "living products" designed for longevity and evolution, with its debut 928 series—now exhibited in Copenhagen's Designmuseum Denmark—setting a minimalist benchmark against button-heavy contemporaries. A 1993 partnership with Swedish firm Xena, involving Lars Pedersen, propelled the influential 30 series in 1998, cementing its design legacy while shifting manufacturing to southern Sweden.
The brand specializes in high-fidelity separates, excelling in integrated amplifiers, power amplifiers, preamplifiers, CD players, network streamers, and DACs that handle analog, digital, wired, and wireless sources with balanced precision. Iconic lines like the 200, 300, and ongoing 30 and 15 series prioritize simple circuitry and modular upgrades, from tuners and Blu-ray players to modern computer audio solutions, always favoring functionality over gimmicks.
Primare occupies a premium mid-to-high-end niche, revered by discerning buyers for its honest integrity, timeless Scandinavian design, and deeply satisfying performance that endures across decades. Award-winning components, such as the EISA-honored CD32/I32, deliver audiophile purity without ostentation, positioning Primare as a practical choice for those seeking lasting quality over fleeting trends in a market craving authenticity.
