New, this little amp sat around the budget end of the market, so £99 for a clean used example lands a touch above the recent median of £77 and right at the top of the typical range, with the 75th percentile at £99. That makes it fair but not cheap: reasonable if the condition is genuinely excellent and it’s ready to plug in, but not an obvious bargain.
The appeal here is straightforward: compact footprint, Bluetooth convenience, and enough all-in-one practicality for a desktop, secondary system, or small room where you want simple, decent-sounding amplification without fuss. If it includes the original power supply, remote, and shows clean cosmetic and functional condition, that supports the price nicely. At £99, I’d treat it as a sensible buy rather than a steal, with the main upside being convenience and tidy used-market value retention.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Tangent Audio, established in 1996 in Denmark, embodies the essence of Scandinavian minimalism in hi-fi design. Rooted in a commitment to harmonious aesthetics and acoustic precision, the brand has spent nearly three decades crafting products that blend simple lines with crystal-clear sound reproduction. As part of the AV Industry Group—alongside premium siblings like Elipson and NorStone—Tangent draws on a legacy of thoughtful engineering without a single standout founder dominating its narrative.
The brand focuses on accessible hi-fi categories, including the acclaimed Ampster series of compact amplifiers, EVO speakers, and a selection of turntables, DACs, and integrated systems. These offerings prioritize refined design, superior user experience, and authentic music playback, often earning international awards for their sensory appeal. Tangent avoids sprawling lines in headphones or cables, instead emphasizing cohesive systems that deliver punchy, detailed performance in modest footprints.
Positioned as mid-tier hi-fi with boutique flair, Tangent appeals to discerning buyers seeking value-driven excellence over extravagant high-end pricing. Its products garner loyal followings for punchy dynamics and visual elegance, though the brand remains somewhat niche outside Europe. Note that a distinct UK-based Tangent Acoustics from the late 1970s produced vintage speakers and amps, but the modern Danish entity stands apart.
