Offered is „Caspian M Series 1 Vollverstärker - Serviced“ by Roksan from the category „Transistor-Fullamp“ on audio-markt.de - the online market place for high-end. The advert with the number 1550019453 ends on 19.10.2026 at 13:41 o'clock.
Timing matters a bit here because this is an older Roksan CD player from a generation before the newer M2 refresh, so you’re buying it as a known, mature design rather than chasing the latest format support. At €790, it sits just above the €778 median and outside neither the €772 25th nor €784 75th percentile by much, so this reads as a fair ask rather than a standout bargain.
That’s still a sensible buy if the disc spinner is complete and healthy, because Caspian players are well-liked for a weighty, musical presentation with good drive and refinement. The upside is that a clean example from a good home can still be very satisfying, and at this price the market is already saying “reasonable.” I’d just want confirmation of smooth loading, reliable playback, and the remote before treating it as an easy yes.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Roksan emerged in London in 1985, founded by Tufan Hashemi and Touraj Moghaddam, two Persian-heritage graduates of Imperial College London and Queen Mary College. Dissatisfied with prevailing turntable designs, they launched the groundbreaking Xerxes platform at that year's hi-fi show, challenging traditional construction and establishing the brand's reputation for radical innovation. Named after Roxana, daughter of Persian King Darius, Roksan infused its identity with cultural roots while rooting itself firmly in British audio engineering.
The brand specializes in high-fidelity components, starting with its iconic analog vinyl replay systems like the Xerxes turntable and Artemiz tonearm. It expanded into amplifiers (Kandy, Attessa, Caspian series), CD players, digital sources, and speakers, blending timeless design with robust engineering. Now hand-built in Rayleigh, Essex, under the Monitor Audio Group since 2016, products like the latest Caspian Series 4G cater to both vinyl enthusiasts and modern streamers.
Roksan occupies a distinctive niche in the high-end hi-fi market as a stylish British disruptor, prized for its boundary-pushing sound quality, reliability, and unconventional aesthetics. Far from mid-tier or vintage obscurity, it commands respect among discerning buyers seeking musical soul over conformity, with a legacy revitalized rather than diluted by its corporate home.
