Excellent amplifier in as new condition. This was to be a long term amplifier but family circumstances dictate otherwise.6 months old so about 4.5 years factory warranty left.Plenty of information on the net.I have the original packaging so shipping is available at buyers cost and organisation
A$5,750 is firmly ambitious against the recent local market, sitting well above the A$4,144 75th percentile and far past the A$1,728 median. For this kind of used CD player, that means the asking price is for a very selective buyer, not a broad-market bargain.
That said, the Caspian line has a solid reputation for smooth, musical digital playback and good build quality, so a clean, original, well-cared-for example can still appeal to someone chasing that specific Roksan character. At this level, though, I’d want proof of excellent condition, strong laser/transport health, and any original remote, box, or service history to justify the premium.
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.
