Angeboten wird „Antileon Evo“ von Gryphon als Gebrauchtgerät aus der Kategorie „Transistor-Endverstärker“ bei audio-markt.de - dem Online-Marktplatz für High-End. Das Inserat mit der Nummer 1430930017 endet am 26.09.2026 um 11:56 Uhr.
Condition is good, which makes the €17,400 ask look like a strong buy against your recent comp set: it sits below the €17,336 25th percentile only by a hair? Actually, using your own anchors, it is slightly above that mark, but still comfortably under the €19,977 median and far below the €33,678 75th percentile. That puts it in the lower end of fair market, not a stretch, and close enough to the cheap side that a clean unit deserves attention.
This is a well-regarded preamp line for the money: Gryphon’s appeal is typically big drive, low noise, and a very refined, controlled presentation that scales with the rest of the system. At this price, the upside is in getting into a serious reference-grade piece without paying median money; just make sure the listing includes the remote, original packaging, and proof of proper functioning, since those details matter more than cosmetic perfection here.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Gryphon Audio Designs emerged from Denmark in 1985, founded by Flemming E. Rasmussen as a passionate offshoot of his distribution company, 2R Marketing. What began as a spare-time project—a compact, dual-mono phono preamplifier known as the Gryphon Head Amp—quickly gained acclaim after debuting at the 1986 Chicago Consumer Electronics Show. Japanese distributors snapped it up, and the audio press hailed it as a "Best Buy," propelling Rasmussen to establish Gryphon as a dedicated entity by the early 1990s, free from import distractions. The brand's name draws from the mythical gryphon, symbolizing the fusion of lion-like power and eagle-like grace in music reproduction.
Gryphon specializes in uncompromising high-end electronics, starting with its legendary class-A phono stages and evolving into high-power amplifiers, preamplifiers, and integrated systems. The company expanded into full-system solutions with the 2002 Cantata stand-mount speakers, followed by flagship models like the massive Poseidon in 2004. Today, its portfolio encompasses speakers, the groundbreaking Apollo turntable—a collaboration with Helmut Brinkmann and Ortofon—and even cables, ensuring every link in the audio chain aligns with Gryphon's neutral, optimized design philosophy.
Positioned firmly at the pinnacle of high-end audio, Gryphon commands respect among discerning audiophiles for its visionary engineering and sonic purity, often setting benchmarks since its inception as one of Europe's earliest true high-end pioneers. Rasmussen's team-driven approach yields products that prioritize musical essence over compromise, attracting buyers who demand reference-level performance in home systems.
