Offered is „Vends KONDO overture pmi2“ by Kondo as second-hand device from the category „Tube-Fullamp“ on audio-markt.de - the online market place for high-end. The advert with the number 3399126006 ends on 02.11.2026 at 17:23 o'clock.
This is a buyer’s market for this category right now, and €18,000 looks very fair against the recent EUR comp set: just under the €18,363 median and comfortably within the normal band between €17,841 and €19,771. It is not a bargain-bin steal, but it is priced where a serious buyer can move without feeling pushed.
The appeal here is the usual Kondo/Audionote Japan magic: very refined tone, big-bodied midrange, and that effortless, emotionally involving presentation that makes the brand so sought after. If the condition is genuinely good, this is the kind of high-end integrated that can be a long-term keeper, and at this price the upside is owning a respected, relatively rare piece without paying top-of-market money.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
# Kondo Audio Note Japan
Kondo Audio Note Japan was founded in 1976 by Hiroyasu Kondo, a metallurgist and son of a Buddhist priest whose technical expertise and philosophical approach to sound reproduction shaped the company's identity. Based in Japan, the brand has maintained its independence and commitment to handcrafted manufacturing for nearly five decades, recently adopting the "Kondo" name to reflect its founder's central role in the company's vision and legacy.
The brand is renowned primarily for vacuum-tube amplification, particularly its legendary power amplifiers and preamplifiers. The 1989 Ongaku power amplifier stands as a watershed moment in high-end audio history, establishing Kondo's reputation for sonic refinement and technical innovation. The company also manufactures integrated amplifiers, preamplifiers like the iconic M7 Heritage, and proprietary capacitors—all produced through meticulous, point-to-point hand-wiring and manual assembly processes that prioritize component quality over production volume.
Kondo Audio Note Japan occupies the ultra-premium tier of the hi-fi market, commanding prices that reflect its artisanal manufacturing, exotic component selection, and uncompromising design philosophy. The brand appeals to dedicated audiophiles and collectors who value emotional engagement with music reproduction and are willing to invest substantially in equipment that combines technical excellence with aesthetic and sonic character. Its reputation rests on exclusivity, heritage, and an unwavering commitment to analog-era design principles adapted for contemporary listening.
