Offered is „Inspiration CS 2.2 4T - Schwarz“ by AVM as new device from the category „All-In-One Systems“ on audio-markt.de - the online market place for high-end. The advert with the number 860505896 ends on 20.10.2026 at 06:30 o'clock.
Notable mostly for being a serious current digital front end, this one lands right on the market’s center of gravity. At €2,390, it matches the median of recent comparable used EUR listings and sits well above the 25th percentile of €2,041, so it reads as fair rather than a bargain or an aggressive ask.
That makes it a reasonable buy if the condition is genuinely clean, since these AVM players are well liked for smooth, refined CD replay and sturdy German engineering. The upside is strongest when the unit is original, well cared for, and comes with its remote, packaging, or paperwork; at this level, those extras help justify the ask and make resale easier.
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.
