Der Plattenspieler zeigt altersbedingte Gebrauchsspuren, ist aber in einem optisch soliden Zustand. Da es sich um ein gebrauchtes Gerät handelt, erfolgt der Verkauf unter Ausschluss jeglicher Gewährleistung. Bei weiteren Fragen zum Gerät kannst du dich gerne melden.
Good condition helps here, but €499 is still on the high side for this model unless the unit is exceptionally complete, serviced, and fully working. Typical seen pricing for RP-9100 examples clusters lower than that, with recent asking prices around the mid-€400s equivalent and some examples much cheaper, so €499 reads more like top-end market territory than a casual bargain.
That said, this is a desirable vintage direct-drive Optonica: quartz-lock pedigree, handsome build, and a strong following among Sharp/Optonica fans. If it includes the dustcover, original extras, and proof of a recent service, it can justify itself better than a rougher example. At this price, the key is condition and verification—speed stability, arm operation, cueing, auto functions, and any remote/control accessories matter a lot.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
# Optonica
Optonica was a high-end audio subdivision of Sharp Corporation, the Japanese electronics manufacturer. Launched in 1975 (with some sources citing 1976), the brand was created to compete directly with established premium audio makers including Pioneer, Yamaha, Sansui, Nakamichi, and Marantz during the golden age of hi-fi. Sharp designed, built, and marketed Optonica products entirely in Japan, positioning the line as a serious contender in the luxury stereo market.
The brand's product portfolio centered on integrated amplifiers, receivers, and complete stereo systems aimed at discerning audiophiles. Optonica equipment was engineered to deliver high-fidelity sound reproduction across the mid-to-high power range, with models typically rated between 40 and 60 watts per channel. The brand maintained a focused approach, concentrating on core audio components rather than diversifying across numerous product categories.
Optonica's tenure in the high-end audio market proved relatively brief, effectively ending by 1982 as a serious competitor. The brand was revived in 1988 as a consumer electronics line encompassing stereo television receivers, VCRs, portable cassette players, and surround-sound receivers, but this iteration lacked the prestige of the original audio division. Production ceased entirely by 1991. Today, Optonica equipment from the late 1970s and early 1980s holds appeal among vintage audio collectors and enthusiasts seeking well-engineered Japanese hi-fi from that era.
