Angeboten wird „DMA-200 S2“ 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 9387647267 endet am 13.09.2026 um 08:15 Uhr.
With the listing noting “EUR” condition (good), the €5,950 asking price sits above the ground-truth 75th percentile of €5,261 and well past the median of €4,573 derived from three recent EUR comparables, making it ambitious rather than fair. It’s roughly €1,377 higher than the median and €689 above the 75th percentile, so unless the unit includes rare extras or is original-owner pristine, the price leans overvalued for this market.
Still, the Spectral DMA 200 is a revered current-source, transformer-coupled stereo power amp known for ultra-low noise, tight bass, and a clean, uncolored midrange that pairs beautifully with difficult loads. Its appeal hinges on timing (few units surface), potential original-owner care, and any included cables or manuals; if those are present and the “good” condition masks only minor cosmetic wear, it could still be a worthwhile buy for a Spectral devotee willing to pay a premium.
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.
