Offered is „Basis Exclusive HV“ by ASR Audio Systeme 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 3221550751 ends on 18.10.2026 at 18:22 o'clock.
Good condition makes €3,300 look essentially fair for this one, sitting right around the €3,291 median and between the €3,090 and €3,540 middle band. It is not a bargain, but it is priced in line with the current used market rather than padded.
That makes it an easy look if you want a serious phono stage with a strong reputation for low-noise, highly resolved vinyl playback and excellent adjustability. Clean, well-kept examples tend to hold value because they’re a known quantity in demanding systems, so the upside here is buying a respected piece without paying a premium; just confirm the usual essentials for a phono stage such as full functionality, correct loading/gain settings, and any original accessories or packaging if those matter to you.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
ASR Audio Systems, based in Herborn, Germany, traces its roots to 1980 when Friedrich Schäfer founded the company, initially as ASR Audio Systeme Friedrich Schäfer. Schäfer, who remains the owner and chief designer, established the brand with a focus on meticulous engineering from the outset. By 1995, it had solidified under its current name, building a heritage of handcrafted components that prioritize sonic purity and longevity.
The brand specializes in high-end amplifiers, including iconic models like the Emitter I and II, which continue to anchor its catalog decades later. ASR's lineup emphasizes power amplifiers and integrated solutions known for their robust construction and dynamic performance, eschewing broader categories such as speakers, turntables, DACs, headphones, or cables.
ASR holds a revered position in the high-end hi-fi market as a niche boutique manufacturer, celebrated among audiophiles for exceptional sound characteristics and technical excellence. Its products command loyalty from discerning buyers seeking uncolored, impactful reproduction, often drawing comparisons to top-tier systems in showrooms worldwide.
