Yamahas Flaggskepps Aventage CX-A5200 säljes. En makalös maskin även för mig som enormt kräsen 2-kanals-kille. Har stått skyddad på samma plats sedan jag packade upp den & den är i nyskick. Endast används ca 30-40 ggr då den står i källaren i min stora biograf, men mina ryggskador gör att jag sedan några år inte länge kan gå ned för trappan till min 52 kvm stora biograf/stereorum. Denna maskin har vad jag vet allt! Balanserade utgångar, 2 x ESS Sabre 384 kHz/32 Bit Pro Premi
This is an ambitious ask: kr21,000 sits well above the recent SEK median of kr13,854 and even clears the 75th percentile at kr16,288, so it’s priced like a premium example rather than a normal used one. Against that sample, you’re paying roughly a kr4,700 premium over the top quartile, so I’d only bite if the condition, service history, and accessories are unusually strong.
That said, the CX-A5200 is a very serious processor: strong channel count, flexible surround formats, and the kind of clean, configurable pre/pro platform that still makes sense in a high-end theater build. If it’s truly complete and well cared for, the upside is in getting a flagship-level Yamaha that can anchor a system for years; just make sure firmware, remote, calibration mic, and any rack/box extras are all there, because at this price you want a near-mint, ready-to-run package.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Yamaha stands as one of the world's most storied audio manufacturers, with roots extending far beyond consumer electronics. Founded in 1887 by Torakusu Yamaha in Hamamatsu, Japan, the company began as a reed organ manufacturer before expanding into pianos and eventually becoming a comprehensive musical instrument maker. This deep heritage in acoustics and materials science would prove foundational to its later audio ventures. The company operated under its original name, Nippon Gakki Co., Ltd., until 1987, when it was renamed Yamaha Corporation in honor of its centennial.
Yamaha's entry into high-fidelity audio proved transformative for the industry itself. In 1954, the company released the Yamaha Hi-Fi Player, widely recognized as the world's first audio component to bear the "Hi-Fi" designation in its name. The company subsequently built a comprehensive product portfolio spanning amplifiers—beginning with the acclaimed A-100 in 1960—speakers, turntables, and digital audio equipment. The NS-1000 speakers, introduced in 1974 with beryllium drivers, became iconic reference monitors. Yamaha also pioneered digital audio technology, shipping the world's first CD recorder in 1988.
Today, Yamaha occupies a distinctive position as a mid-to-high-end generalist rather than a niche specialist. The brand commands respect among both casual listeners and serious audiophiles, balancing accessibility with genuine engineering credibility. Its reputation rests on six decades of consistent innovation, proven reliability, and the unique advantage of applying musical instrument expertise to audio reproduction. Vintage Yamaha components remain highly sought by collectors, while current products maintain the brand's tradition of delivering performance and durability across multiple price tiers.
