This is a fair ask, leaning a touch on the high side rather than a bargain: at A$600, it sits above the A$373 median and well above the A$329 25th percentile, though still below the A$749 75th percentile. That makes it reasonable for a clean, complete example, but not an obvious steal.
The 651A is well liked for its solid grip, musical midband, and easygoing but capable integrated-amp sound, so a good one can be a genuinely satisfying buy. At this price, the value improves a lot if it’s been well cared for, has a remote, and shows no signs of scratchy controls or relay issues; if it’s simply “unknown condition,” I’d want proof it powers up quietly and behaves properly before paying full ask.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Cambridge Audio emerged from the innovative spirit of 1960s Britain, founded in Cambridge, United Kingdom, by a group of young engineers who spun off from Cambridge Consulting Group. Established in 1968, the brand launched with the groundbreaking P40 integrated amplifier—the first to employ a toroidal transformer, setting a new standard for dynamic power delivery in hi-fi design that endures in high-end gear today. This heritage of British engineering excellence propelled decades of award-winning products, navigating ownership changes including a revival under entrepreneur Vince Adams and acquisition in 1994 by Julian Richer and James Johnson-Flint of Richer Sounds.
The brand excels across core hi-fi categories, renowned for integrated amplifiers like the iconic A1 and P-series, alongside streaming DACs, network players, turntables, and all-in-one systems that prioritize pure analogue warmth and digital precision. Speakers, headphones, and cables round out a cohesive ecosystem, emphasizing accessible high performance without excess frills.
Positioned firmly in the mid-tier market, Cambridge Audio delivers premium British sound—detailed, rhythmic, and uncolored—at prices that democratize quality for discerning buyers. Free from corporate bloat, it holds a reputation for reliability and value, appealing to enthusiasts seeking sophisticated hi-fi that punches above its weight rather than chasing ultra-high-end esoterica.
