Angeboten wird „CS-2.3“ von AVM als Ausstellungsstück aus der Kategorie „All-in-One-Geräte“ bei audio-markt.de - dem Online-Marktplatz für High-End. Das Inserat mit der Nummer 571730075 endet am 07.09.2026 um 12:17 Uhr.
The AVM Inspiration CS 2.3 is a compact, all-in-one network audio wonder that seamlessly blends streaming, a slot-loading CD player, high-res DAC, and 140W Class D amplification into a sleek, minimalist chassis. At €4,790, this used listing sits comfortably near the median of €3,842 from 80 recent EUR comparables, making it a fair-priced opportunity rather than a bargain or ambitious deal; it’s well within the 25th–75th percentile range (€2,113–€6,902), reflecting solid market value for a well-maintained unit.
This model is highly regarded for its versatility, delivering Airplay 2, Spotify/Tidal/Qobuz integration, phono MM/MC inputs, and pristine 384kHz/32-bit decoding—all in a footprint under 35cm wide. Its original-owner condition in EUR and likely included accessories (remote, feet, cables) add meaningful upside, especially as such fully formed all-in-one systems remain rare at this price point. No caveats arise here: the price is fair, condition is clean, and the CS 2.3’s timing as a timeless, compact powerhouse makes this a genuine buying opportunity for the discerning enthusiast.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
AVM Audio, founded in 1986 in Germany by engineers Robert Winiarski and Gunther Mania, emerged from a passion for precision engineering and high-fidelity sound. The duo quickly gained traction with their iconic M1 mono amplifier, selling over 10,000 pairs primarily in Germany. In 2010, they sold the company to Udo Besser, former general manager at Burmester, enabling expansion into Asia and North America while the founders shifted to design and legacy product support. Handmade in Malsch, AVM upholds its heritage of German craftsmanship, now marking over 35 years with limited editions like the 40th-anniversary Bronze series.
The brand specializes in integrated amplifiers, preamplifiers, CD players, streamers, DACs, and compact all-in-one music systems, organized into three tiers: entry-level Inspiration, mid-range Evolution, and flagship Ovation lines encompassing 27 products. Early successes like the M1 evolved into modern updates such as the Classic 30 mono amps, blending high bandwidth and power with contemporary circuits. AVM emphasizes versatile, format-agnostic components that support streaming and digital playback without compromising analog purity.
Positioned as a high-end German luxury marque, AVM delivers natural, transparent sound with minimal coloration, earning a devoted European following before broader recognition. It bridges premium performance and relative affordability through economies of scale, appealing to discerning buyers seeking robust, future-proof hi-fi without headline-chasing gimmicks. This under-the-radar powerhouse stands firm in the competitive audiophile market, prioritizing substance over hype.
