Is £364 a sensible ask for this, or is it stretching past the sweet spot? Against recent GBP comps, it lands well above the 75th percentile of £269, so this is an ambitious price rather than a fair-market buy.
That said, the TA-22 is a well-liked hybrid-style headphone amp/DAC with a proper tube-flavoured presentation, decent drive, and enough versatility to suit a lot of desktop rigs. If it’s clean, fully working, and comes with the original box, tubes, and remote, that softens the sting a bit — but at this level you should want excellent condition and a strong accessory bundle, not just a functioning unit.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
xDuoo is a Shenzhen, China-based audio brand that emerged from the country’s fast-growing hi-fi manufacturing ecosystem. Its exact founding year is not consistently stated in the sources available here, and no founder is prominently verified, but the company is widely presented as Shenzhen xDuoo Technology Co., Ltd., with roots in OEM/ODM production before building its own consumer-facing identity.
The brand is best known for headphone amplifiers, DAC/amp combos, portable DACs, tube hybrids, and other desktop-and-portable electronics aimed at personal audio enthusiasts. xDuoo’s lineup has included tube headphone amps, balanced amplifier designs, digital-to-analog converters, and all-in-one sources, typically positioned for headphones rather than loudspeakers or turntables.
In the market, xDuoo sits in the value-to-mid-tier audiophile segment, with a reputation for offering ambitious feature sets, lots of connectivity, and occasional tube-flavored designs at relatively accessible prices. It is not generally considered a luxury or vintage-collector brand, but rather a practical, performance-driven Chinese hi-fi maker with a strong presence among enthusiasts seeking high features per dollar.
