Angeboten wird „Robert Fuchs Referenz Tonarm, 12 Zoll, neue C-Basis in Kupfer poliert, Ebenholz und Spezialholz“ von Robert Fuchs Analog als Neugerät aus der Kategorie „Tonarm“ bei audio-markt.de - dem Online-Marktplatz für High-End. Das Inserat mit der Nummer 3030113088 endet am 01.09.2026 um 07:44 Uhr.
At €3,950, this is a very ambitious ask versus the used market: it sits far above your recent comparable set, which tops out at a 75th percentile of €1,322 and has a median of €523. On those numbers, the listing is priced at a clear premium, so I’d only see it as sensible if it has truly exceptional provenance, unusually complete accessories, or a specification upgrade that isn’t reflected in the title.
That said, this is the kind of tonearm that can justify a strong price when it’s complete and nicely executed: 12-inch arms, custom bases, and high-end materials tend to attract serious analog buyers who value fit, finish, and setup flexibility. If the package includes all mounting hardware, a matching base, and the arm is clean with low play in the bearings, it could still appeal to a collector or someone building a top-tier turntable.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Basis Audio emerged from the passion of founder A.J. Conti, a brilliant analog engineer whose hobby evolved into a full-time pursuit in the mid-1980s. Starting with the Debut model shortly after founding the company in the United States, Conti left his day job within a year to dedicate himself to revolutionizing vinyl playback through meticulous engineering and a zealous commitment to analog design.
The brand focuses exclusively on high-end turntables, renowned for innovations like fluid-damped suspensions, vacuum platters, and precision drive systems. Models such as the Debut series, Inspiration, and flagship Work of Art—unveiled at the 2004 Winter CES—represent pinnacles of record playback, blending scientific measurement with artistic refinement to deliver unmatched sonic performance.
Basis Audio commands a niche position at the apex of the high-end analog market, cherished by discerning audiophiles for rock-solid stability, exceptional detail, and transformative musicality. Over three decades, its designs have set gold standards, earning acclaim from outlets like The Absolute Sound and Stereophile as among the finest turntables ever produced.
