Offered is „The Groove + SRX“ by Tom Evans as second-hand device from the category „Phono Amplifier“ on audio-markt.de - the online market place for high-end. The advert with the number 7227255826 ends on 11.10.2026 at 18:03 o'clock.
Good condition makes this look like a strong buy, because €2,750 sits just above the 75th percentile of the recent comp set and well above the €1,373 median, so it’s clearly on the ambitious side of the market but not wildly detached from it. Against that spread, I’d call it top-end fair rather than a bargain.
That said, the GROOVE has a real reputation for speed, timing, and low-noise detail, which is exactly why buyers keep circling back to it for serious vinyl front ends. In good shape, it can be a long-term phono stage purchase with little obvious downside if the seller can show clean operation, original power supply, and sensible history; at this level, those basics matter more than cosmetic niceties.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
