Offered is „Phono Box S2 Ultra Schwarz“ by Pro-Ject as new device from the category „Pre-Amplifier / Processor“ on audio-markt.de - the online market place for high-end. The advert with the number 9382092393 ends on 25.10.2026 at 12:41 o'clock.
The Pro-Ject Phono Box S2 Ultra sits in that sweet spot of compact, serious-sounding phono stages that punch well above their size. At €249, this asking price is above the €214 75th percentile for recent used EUR listings, so it reads ambitious rather than a bargain.
That said, it’s still a well-regarded step-up piece for vinyl setups that need quieter backgrounds, good detail retrieval, and easy placement near the turntable. If the unit is clean, complete, and from careful ownership, the premium may make sense; if not, there’s enough used supply around the €162–€214 band that patience could pay off.

Pro-Ject Audio Systems traces its roots to 1991 in Austria's Weinviertel region, north of Vienna, where founder Heinz Lichtenegger launched the brand amid the CD revolution. Kicked out of music school as a youth, Lichtenegger channeled his passion for analog sound into affordable, high-quality turntables at a time when vinyl seemed obsolete. His debut Pro-Ject 1, hand-assembled in the Czech Republic, earned rave reviews as a top high-end device, igniting a success story that relocated headquarters to Vienna before returning to Mistelbach in Lower Austria.
The brand excels in turntables, establishing itself as the world's largest and leading producer in that category, while expanding into a full spectrum of hi-fi components since 2000. Offerings include amplifiers, DACs, headphone amps, speakers, cables, and phono stages, all emphasizing essential sound reproduction with durable materials and minimalist design. Manufacturing remains European—primarily in Czechia, Slovakia, and Germany—prioritizing sustainability through local sourcing, short transport, and products built for longevity.
Pro-Ject holds a commanding niche as the go-to for mid-tier audiophiles seeking boutique European craftsmanship without extravagant pricing. Distributed in over 80 countries, it appeals to vinyl revivalists and discerning buyers who value analog purity, innovation, and value-driven performance over flashy excess, cementing its reputation as a pioneer in accessible high-fidelity.
