Is this a fair buy, or are you paying for enthusiasm more than value? At £750, this is well above the recent used median of £291 and even clears the 75th percentile at £403, so it reads as ambitious rather than bargain territory for the market you’ve got in hand.
That said, the BX2 Magnum/BP1 combo has real appeal if you want a portable tube-flavoured headphone amp with a separate linear supply, since that can mean a fuller, quieter, more substantial presentation than the average one-box unit. If the listing is genuinely clean, includes the power supply and any original accessories, and you specifically want this format, it could still be a worthwhile buy—but at this asking price, condition and completeness need to be excellent.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Aune Audio traces its roots to 2004 in Wuhan, China, where a group of six seasoned audio enthusiasts and DIY experts united under the banner of the influential HIFIDIY.NET community. This online hub, active from 2004 to 2014, fostered a decade of innovative designs and shared passion for high-fidelity sound. Evolving from Wuhan AO LAI ER Technology Co., Ltd. and later Wuhan Aune Acoustics Co., Ltd., the brand emerged as one of China's pioneering dedicated digital audio enterprises, blending engineering expertise with a commitment to quality manufacturing.
The company specializes in a focused lineup of hi-fi components, including desktop DAC/amp combos, headphone amplifiers, digital transports, players, clocks, and headphones. Standouts include the S9c Pro with its dual ES9068A DACs, ultra-low-jitter clock synchronization, and discrete twin-JFET amplification delivering up to 5W. On the headphone front, Aune's AR-series features innovative MLD (Multi-Layer Distributed) diaphragms for enhanced driver performance, alongside ergonomic designs that prioritize measurable fidelity in distortion, noise, and frequency response.
Positioned as a mid-tier contender in the global hi-fi market, Aune earns respect for rational integration of proven technologies, delivering solid performance without extravagant claims. It appeals to discerning buyers seeking value-driven precision over hype, with reliable support like 24-month warranties and EU shipping from Germany. While not a luxury pinnacle, its thoughtful engineering cements a niche for practical, high-quality audio solutions.
