Angeboten wird „EAR Yoshino HP-4“ von EAR Yoshino als Gebrauchtgerät aus der Kategorie „Verstärker (incl. Surround)“ bei audio-markt.de - dem Online-Marktplatz für High-End. Das Inserat mit der Nummer 4680425925 endet am 21.09.2026 um 01:10 Uhr.
EAR Yoshino’s HP4 has a strong reputation as a refined, no-nonsense headphone amplifier, and at €3,000 it lands essentially on top of the local market. Against your comparable EUR set, it sits just above the €2,974 median and comfortably inside the €2,877–€3,205 interquartile band, so this reads as a fair asking price rather than a bargain or an ambitious ask.
What makes it worth a look is the HP4’s long-standing status as a very musical, low-drama amp: smooth, authoritative, and especially appealing if you value tone and drive over flashy features. In good condition, the main upside is simply getting a respected specialist piece at a sane market number; if the unit includes the original box, documentation, or has a clean service history, that adds real confidence without needing to force the price story.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
EAR Yoshino: Editorial Brand Description
Esoteric Audio Research was founded in England in 1976 by designer Tim de Paravicini, launching with the EAR 509, a 100-watt valve monoblock power amplifier that balanced performance, reliability, and cost—a philosophy that continues to define the brand today. De Paravicini's career spans decades of audio innovation, including formative work at Lux Corporation in Japan during the 1970s, where he developed acclaimed pre/power amplifier combinations and custom valve designs. Yoshino Ltd. was established in 1994 to manufacture de Paravicini's designs under the EAR Yoshino banner, combining his English engineering heritage with Japanese manufacturing precision.
The brand specializes in valve-based audio electronics, with a product range spanning integrated amplifiers, preamplifiers, and power amplifiers. Notable designs include the iconic EAR 834P phono preamplifier series, the V12 and V20 integrated amplifiers, and the 912 preamplifier. More recently, EAR Yoshino has ventured into hybrid solid-state designs, such as the 834T integrated amplifier, while maintaining the company's core commitment to valve technology and unconventional circuit architecture.
EAR Yoshino occupies the high-end luxury segment of the hi-fi market, with products commanding premium prices that reflect meticulous design and hand-built construction. The brand has accumulated numerous awards across multiple product categories and maintains a strong global reputation among discerning audiophiles who prioritize sonic excellence and engineering integrity. De Paravicini's legendary status as a designer, combined with the company's award-winning heritage and commitment to exceptional servicing, positions EAR Yoshino as a boutique manufacturer for those seeking the finest in analog and valve-based audio reproduction.
