This looks like a fair ask, very close to the going market. At £16,995, it sits just above the £16,827 median and well within the typical spread, so it reads as sensible rather than stretched.

The 690 is well liked for its refinement, control, and big, effortless presentation, and in excellent condition that matters more than chasing a tiny saving. For a high-end integrated like this, provenance and careful use are the real upside; a tidy example at this level is the kind of listing serious buyers can move on confidently.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Goldmund traces its origins to 1978, when two college students founded the company in France and unveiled the groundbreaking T3 servo-controlled tonearm, the world's first computer-controlled linear tracking design. This debut marked the start of a relentless pursuit of sonic perfection, with the brand soon relocating to Geneva, Switzerland, where it embraced "Swiss Made" precision and values of innovation, excellence, and passion.
