At €12,500 new, this Brinkmann NYQUIST MK2 sits just €111 below the 25th percentile of €12,486 from our 12 recent EUR listings, making it a strong deal compared to the typical used market where the median is €12,611.

The NYQUIST MK2 is a top-tier DAC prized for its transparent sound, flexible digital inputs (S/PDIF, TosLink, AES/EBU, USB, Ethernet), and external PSU design that minimizes noise. With included remote, Cinch/XLR outputs, and a headphone amp, it delivers all-in-one versatility for high-end systems. In EUR-new condition with no noted flaws, this is a clear buying opportunity for enthusiasts seeking German precision without the €17,500 new price tag.

Brinkmann Audio traces its origins to 1985 in Germany, when Helmut Brinkmann founded the company after selling his stake in Audiolabor, where he had developed acclaimed products like the Konstant turntable. Fans urged him to continue his innovations, leading to Brinkmann's debut with the legendary Balance turntable—a design still in continuous production today. Handcrafted entirely from German parts in Germany, the brand embodies Helmut's relentless pursuit of the "perfect illusion" of musical playback, rooted in engineering simplicity and enduring quality.
The company specializes in high-end analog components, renowned for its exceptional turntables, tonearms, and phono preamplifiers, with past offerings including phono cartridges. Brinkmann has expanded into electronics, producing preamplifiers, power amplifiers, and integrated amplifiers to complete the audio chain, while designing and manufacturing every element in-house for seamless synergy.
Positioned firmly in the ultra-high-end market, Brinkmann commands a cult following among discerning audiophiles for its refined German craftsmanship and uncompromising performance. It stands as a niche boutique icon, delivering magical, lifelike sound that elevates vinyl and digital playback to reference levels, appealing to collectors and perfectionists who demand the pinnacle of hi-fi artistry.
