Verkaufe meine HECO Ascada 7 Lautsprecher aus den 1990er Jahren, Farbe schwarz mit Seitenwangen aus (vermutlich) Kirschholz. Die Holzplatten sind abnehmbar und könnten bei Bedarf umlackiert werden. Den Heco Prospekt lege ich dazu das waren die Nachfolgemodelle.
Klanglich waren die Boxen immer überragend – nur meiner Frau waren sie schlicht zu groß, deshalb müssen sie jetzt gehen.
Die Lautsprecher stehen seit Jahren ungenutzt bei mir, da ich keine Anlage mehr besitze. Zum Probehören bitte einen eigenen Verstärker mitbringen.
Zustand: übliche Gebrauchsspuren am Holz sowie ein paar Macken, altersbedingt. Funktion konnte daher zuletzt nicht mehr getestet werden.
Privatverkauf, keine Garantie, keine Rücknahme.
Fair ask: €380 lands comfortably below the usual used asking band I found for this model, which clusters more around roughly €500–€600 and can stretch higher when condition is excellent. That makes this look like a genuine value play rather than an ambitious listing.
What makes it worth a look is the Ascada line’s big, room-filling presentation and strong vintage HECO build, with the kind of scale and ease that can still embarrass newer budget floorstanders. If the cabinets, drivers, and crossover are all healthy and it’s a complete pair, this is the sort of price that leaves room for any minor refresh and still feels smart.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
HECO traces its roots to 1949, when Gerhard Richard Hennel and his wife Susanne founded Hennel & Co. KG in the German Taunus region town of Schmitten. Initially focused on manufacturing speaker chassis and baskets for cinemas and restaurants, the family business quickly pivoted to high-quality home audio, producing its first series-production speaker chassis in 1950 and the legendary compact B130 model by 1964. This heritage of German engineering precision has defined HECO for over seven decades, evolving through innovations like the 1951 Orchester Type C16 and early multichannel speaker sets.
The brand specializes in premium loudspeakers, with iconic series such as Superior (1987), Concerto Grosso, and Celan (launched 2005 and continually refined) anchoring its reputation. HECO has occasionally ventured into car audio with lines like Sprint and Turbo amplifiers in the 1990s, but its core strength remains floorstanding, bookshelf, and compact home speakers renowned for balanced, dynamic sound. Ambitious designs prioritize music reproduction in domestic settings, blending tradition with modern materials.
Positioned as a mid-to-high-end contender, HECO commands respect among discerning hi-fi enthusiasts for exceptional price-to-performance ratios, numerous test victories, and enduring series that rival pricier rivals. No longer a small family operation but part of Audio-Produkte GmbH, it sustains innovative momentum, delivering "true sound" that appeals to knowledgeable buyers seeking reliable German quality without ultra-boutique excess.
