The Onkyo Muse Y-50 is notable as Onkyo’s flagship Class‑D streaming integrated, packing 250W into 4Ω and modern network features in a compact chassis. At £1,249, this used asking price sits just above the 75th percentile (£1,182) of recent GBP listings but remains well below the new retail anchor of roughly £1,180–£1,210 (converted from $1,499 USD) and the current lowest new offer of £1,399. That makes it a fair, slightly ambitious price for a fresh‑to‑market model rather than a bargain, yet still solid value given its rarity on the used market this soon after release.
This amplifier delivers robust power for demanding speakers, excellent clarity across 20Hz–30kHz, and seamless hi‑res streaming over Wi‑Fi, with HDMI‑ARC, phono MM, and sub outputs for a true all‑in‑one setup. Its Axign Class‑D design with MOSFET output stage is engineered for dynamic, clean sound in a small footprint, making it ideal for modern living rooms. If the listing is from an original owner in clean condition with cables and remote, it’s a worthwhile buy opportunity at this price; only probe for missing accessories or cosmetic wear if the unit looks anything less than pristine.

Onkyo traces its roots to postwar Japan, founded in 1946 in Osaka by Takeshi Goda, an engineer at Matsushita Electric who envisioned high-quality Japanese loudspeakers. Initially established as Osaka Denki Onkyo K.K., the company began production in 1948 with the acclaimed ED-100 speaker featuring a 25 cm driver, quickly building a reputation through LP concerts and innovative designs that resonated with audiophiles.
The brand excels in premium home audio, renowned for AV receivers, hi-fi amplifiers, and surround sound speakers that deliver exceptional clarity and power. Its portfolio spans turntables, DACs, headphones, and cables, bolstered by acquisitions like Pioneer's home electronics division in 2015, enabling cutting-edge integrations such as internet radio and high-resolution streaming.
Onkyo holds a solid mid-tier position in the hi-fi market, prized by discerning buyers for reliable performance and value rather than ultra-high-end exotica. Despite bankruptcy challenges in the late 2010s, its revival under new ownership preserves a legacy of technological innovation and pure sound enjoyment, appealing to both vintage enthusiasts and modern home cinema setups.
