RADAR is a price search engine. We link to the original listing — we never sell direct. Transactions happen on the source site.
Timing matters here only in the sense that this is an older generation piece, but the asking price is a clear bargain versus your own market anchor: at US$2,750, it sits well below the US$3,717 25th percentile and far under the US$4,684 median. That puts it in genuine value-buy territory, not just “a bit below market.”
What makes it worthwhile is that the 390 is a respected all-in-one preamp/streamer/DAC platform with a strong reputation for sound quality and practical flexibility, so getting one at this level usually leaves room for a future source or amp upgrade. If the unit is clean, complete, and functioning properly, this looks like the kind of listing a fellow enthusiast should move on quickly; the main thing to verify is basic operational health and included accessories, because the price already does the heavy lifting here.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Moon by Simaudio traces its roots to 1980, when Victor Sima, an Israeli émigré and qualified audio engineer, founded Sima Electronique in Canada with a deliberate mission to craft superior-sounding products at accessible prices. Initially targeting professionals, the brand—later renamed Simaudio—quickly captivated audiophiles for its sonic excellence and value. Sima retired in 1994, selling to Jean Poulin, whose leadership propelled the evolution into the premium MOON series, building on successes like the Celeste line and in-house innovations from their Quebec facilities.
The company specializes in high-performance electronics, excelling in amplifiers, integrated systems, preamplifiers, power amplifiers, and digital converters such as DACs. All products undergo meticulous hand-assembly, in-house chassis machining, and rigorous burn-in testing in Montreal-area factories, emphasizing precision engineering over mass production. While not venturing into speakers, turntables, headphones, or cables, MOON's lineup—from reference-grade flagships to the more approachable "1" series—delivers trickle-down technology for broad appeal.
Positioned firmly in the high-end market, Moon by Simaudio commands respect as a boutique Canadian powerhouse, blending audiophile purity with user-friendly design. Privately held and exported to 45 countries, it rejects esoteric tweaks in favor of natural, detailed sound that invites music lovers to truly immerse themselves, sustaining vibrant success without compromising its heritage of engineering excellence.
