At £69, this looks like a solid buy rather than a stretch: used examples of this model commonly sit around the £75–£140 mark, with nicer or dealer-checked ones higher, so this asking price lands a touch below the usual run and is good value if it’s working properly. New Cambridge Audio turntables are far more expensive, so £69 is comfortably into “entry-level used bargain” territory for a classic British deck.
What makes it appealing is the P25 MK II’s reputation as a competent, no-nonsense belt-drive that can sound musical and balanced with a decent cartridge and setup. If the platter, arm lift, speed stability, and dust cover are all present, this is the kind of older hi-fi buy that can punch well above the money. The only real caveat is the usual one for vintage decks: confirm it spins quietly at speed and that the belt, cartridge, and lid aren’t tired or missing.

Cambridge Audio emerged from the innovative spirit of 1960s Britain, founded in Cambridge, United Kingdom, by a group of young engineers who spun off from Cambridge Consulting Group. Established in 1968, the brand launched with the groundbreaking P40 integrated amplifier—the first to employ a toroidal transformer, setting a new standard for dynamic power delivery in hi-fi design that endures in high-end gear today. This heritage of British engineering excellence propelled decades of award-winning products, navigating ownership changes including a revival under entrepreneur Vince Adams and acquisition in 1994 by Julian Richer and James Johnson-Flint of Richer Sounds.
The brand excels across core hi-fi categories, renowned for integrated amplifiers like the iconic A1 and P-series, alongside streaming DACs, network players, turntables, and all-in-one systems that prioritize pure analogue warmth and digital precision. Speakers, headphones, and cables round out a cohesive ecosystem, emphasizing accessible high performance without excess frills.
Positioned firmly in the mid-tier market, Cambridge Audio delivers premium British sound—detailed, rhythmic, and uncolored—at prices that democratize quality for discerning buyers. Free from corporate bloat, it holds a reputation for reliability and value, appealing to enthusiasts seeking sophisticated hi-fi that punches above its weight rather than chasing ultra-high-end esoterica.
