Angeboten wird „Prestige Five“ von QLN als Gebrauchtgerät aus der Kategorie „Standlautsprecher“ bei audio-markt.de - dem Online-Marktplatz für High-End. Das Inserat mit der Nummer 8471773038 endet am 02.10.2026 um 09:00 Uhr.
This is an ambitious ask, not a fair or bargain-level price: at €9,545 it sits well above the €7,705 75th percentile of the recent comparable EUR listings, versus a €4,750 median and €3,650 25th percentile. For a used pair/listing in good condition, that puts it firmly in premium territory and leaves little room unless the seller can justify it with exceptional cosmetics, provenance, or extras.
What keeps it interesting is the model’s reputation: QLN’s Prestige line is known for a refined, open presentation with strong imaging and a more “audiophile” balance than many mainstream speakers, so a clean example can be a satisfying long-term buy. At this price, though, the upside really depends on the exact package—original boxes, grills, spikes/stands, and evidence of careful ownership matter a lot, because you are paying top-of-market and should expect a properly sorted, complete example.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
QLN Acoustics, a Swedish hi-fi brand, was founded in 1977 by Nils Liljeroth and Lars Quicklund, with Mats Andersen joining in 1982 as a key designer. The company quickly gained traction in Europe, North America, and the Far East during the early 1980s, building a reputation for innovative loudspeakers that prioritize natural sound reproduction and precise soundstaging. After a challenging period from 2003 to 2012 under different ownership that produced less acclaimed products, Andersen repurchased the brand in 2013, reviving its original ethos with updated classics.
QLN focuses exclusively on high-quality loudspeakers, handcrafted in Sweden, rather than amplifiers, turntables, DACs, headphones, or cables. Signature models like the Prestige series (including the One, Five, and recent flagship Reference 9), Signature 3, Qubic 10, and Sonora floorstander feature distinctive truncated pyramid cabinets, time-aligned drivers, slanted baffles, and proprietary Qboard damping for minimal resonance and cabinet noise. These designs emphasize effortless musical flow and a "disappearing act" where the speakers vanish, leaving only the performance.
Positioned as a niche boutique in the high-end market, QLN commands cult status among discerning audiophiles for its timeless Scandinavian engineering and uncompromised fidelity. Revived models honor 1980s icons while incorporating decades of refinement, appealing to buyers seeking refined, musically engaging compact and floorstanding options that integrate seamlessly into modern homes.
