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 2958846985 ends on 16.10.2026 at 09:14 o'clock.
At €2,750, this sits well above the typical used market for the piece: the median comparable asking price is €1,362, with the upper quartile at €2,727, so this is a clearly ambitious ask rather than a fair-market bargain. It’s only just over the 75th percentile, which means it isn’t absurd, but buyers should expect either exceptional condition, strong provenance, or extras to justify it.
The GROOVE is well regarded because it brings a very refined, low-noise, highly resolving presentation that rewards good cartridges and careful setup. If this is a clean, original-owner unit with the right power supply and no history of fault, it can still be a satisfying buy for someone specifically chasing its sound; at this price, though, the condition, accessories, and service history need to do the heavy lifting.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
