This one matters less for being a “newer” deck than for being a solid late-era transport choice, and at £168 it sits well above the typical used pool for this model family: the median is £77, with the upper quartile at £101. That makes the asking price ambitious rather than fair, and it needs either unusually strong provenance or a better-than-average bundle to justify itself.
What still gives it appeal is the straightforward transport-only appeal: a compact, no-nonsense disc spinner that can suit a tidy digital front end and keep life simple if you already like your DAC. “MINT” condition is a plus, but at this price the real buying case would be original remote, box, manual, and proof it’s reading discs quickly and silently; without that, I’d treat it as a collector’s ask rather than an easy enthusiast buy.
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.
