This is a fair ask, sitting just above the median of the recent GBP market. At £600, it lands close to the £581 median and inside the £537 to £607 interquartile band, so it reads as a normal, defensible price rather than a bargain or an overreach.
What makes it appealing is that this is a well-liked, serious desktop headphone amp with proper current-drive authority, a clean balanced presentation, and enough muscle to control demanding dynamics well. If the unit is genuinely tidy and complete, that’s the kind of used buy that holds its appeal because the core performance is still very much in the “high-end solid-state done right” lane; at this price, I’d just want assurance on functionality, original PSU, and any signs of hard use before jumping.

Founded in June 1945 by Dr. Fritz Sennheiser in a farmhouse near Hanover, Germany, Sennheiser began as Laboratorium Wennebostel, producing voltmeters and early microphones amid post-World War II reconstruction. Seven engineers from the University of Hannover joined the founder, quickly pivoting to broadcast microphones like the DM 2 in 1946 and the groundbreaking MD 82 shotgun mic in 1956. Renamed Sennheiser electronic in 1958, the family-owned company passed to second- and third-generation leadership, maintaining its innovative spirit over eight decades.
Sennheiser excels in professional and consumer audio, renowned for microphones, wireless systems, and headphones that set industry standards. Pioneers of the first open-back headphones (HD 414 in 1968) and enduring studio icons like the MD 421 and MD 441, they also produce high-end headphones, earbuds, soundbars, and conferencing solutions. While strong in pro audio like mixers and geophysical gear, their consumer focus centers on headphones and wireless tech rather than amplifiers, speakers, turntables, DACs, or cables.
Sennheiser commands a premium position in the hi-fi market, blending mid-tier accessibility with high-end excellence for discerning buyers and professionals. Trusted for reliability and sonic precision, it appeals to audiophiles seeking reference-grade headphones without boutique obscurity, backed by a heritage of technological firsts that sustains its global leadership.
