Offered is „CD 35 (I) Signature Pre“ by Ayon Audio as second-hand device from the category „CD Player“ on audio-markt.de - the online market place for high-end. The advert with the number 2358571172 ends on 26.10.2026 at 15:33 o'clock.
This is a buyer’s market if the unit is clean and fully working: €6,500 sits at the high end of recent used asks, with comparable CD-35/II listings often clustering around roughly €3,900-€6,200 and some Signature examples reaching €6,500, so this is fair only if it’s the better-equipped version or exceptionally complete. If it’s the standard CD-35, that ask is ambitious; if it’s a Signature/preamp package with strong provenance, it lands in sensible territory.
The attraction is real: the CD-35 is a serious all-in-one digital front end with the kind of weight, texture, and musical ease that keeps Ayon gear popular, and the current listing price doesn’t need to be a steal to be interesting. Best upside is original packaging, remote, manuals, and evidence of careful ownership; the main buyer checks are tube age, transport health, and whether all functions, outputs, and any preamp stage are behaving properly.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Ayon Audio traces its roots to Austria, where it emerged four decades ago as VAIC before evolving into Ayon Audio in 2001 under the leadership of founder Gerhard Hirt. This transition marked a pivotal shift toward innovative vacuum tube audio design, building on Hirt's enduring ownership of the VAIC trademark and his passion for sonic purity.
The brand specializes in a comprehensive lineup of vacuum tube components, including power amplifiers, preamplifiers, headphone amplifiers, CD players, DACs, and streamers. Ayon's signature "Voicing"—its proprietary DNA—infuses every product with a distinctive soundstage renowned for depth, realism, and emotional engagement, setting new benchmarks in pure Class A circuit topologies.
Positioned firmly in the high-end market, Ayon commands global respect with distributors in over 55 countries and a trophy cabinet brimming from "Best Sound" and "Cost No Object" accolades at major audio shows. Austrian-engineered and award-winning, it appeals to discerning audiophiles seeking boutique excellence in tube amplification, far beyond mid-tier compromises.
