Angeboten wird „DMA-200S Series 2“ von Spectral Audio als Gebrauchtgerät aus der Kategorie „Transistor-Endverstärker“ bei audio-markt.de - dem Online-Marktplatz für High-End. Das Inserat mit der Nummer 5897835745 endet am 07.09.2026 um 09:09 Uhr.
At €6,000, this Spectral DMA 200S asks slightly more than the typical used market median of €5,544, sitting just above the 75th percentile of €5,779, so it’s an ambitious but not unreasonable price for a clean EUR-condition unit. Compared to buying a high-end modern integrated or a lesser-used competitor stereo amp in this range, you’re getting a legendary, ultra-fast current-source design that delivers 180W into 8Ω and 570W into 2Ω with distortion under 0.015% and a frequency response to 1.8MHz.
This amplifier remains a top-tier choice for its unmatched transient speed, silence, and ability to drive difficult loads without compression, making it a standout for serious two-channel systems. Since the listing is in good condition and the price reflects its rarity and enduring performance rather than a flaw, it’s a solid buying opportunity for enthusiasts who value Spectral’s engineering over mass-market alternatives. No material caveats apply here unless the unit shows signs of age-related wear or missing original accessories.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Spectral Audio, an American high-end audio brand, traces its origins to 1975 when Richard Fryer founded the company in pursuit of unparalleled musical realism. Initially sparked by Fryer's collaboration with partner Damian Martin to create a reference amplifier for Sound Advice in 1976, the venture evolved into Spectral Incorporated with the launch of the landmark MS-One amplifier in 1977 or 1978. Fryer enlisted the expertise of Dr. Keith O. Johnson, a legendary recording engineer and circuit designer renowned for innovations in analog and digital audio, including early advancements in cassette duplication.
The brand focuses on premium electronics, particularly power amplifiers, preamplifiers, and digital source components like state-of-the-art DACs, designed to integrate seamlessly as a unified system. Spectral eschews mass production, building limited quantities of each product to push performance boundaries without regard for cost constraints, treating development like an independent research lab rather than a conventional business.
Spectral holds a niche boutique position in the high-end market, revered by discerning audiophiles for its timeless engineering and refusal to chase trends, reviews, or aggressive marketing. Operating almost as a well-kept secret for over four decades, it prioritizes sonic purity and system synergy, appealing to serious listeners who value substance over hype.
