Offered is „Audio Note Jinro“ by Audio Note as second-hand device from the category „Amplifier (incl. Surround)“ on audio-markt.de - the online market place for high-end. The advert with the number 474863082 ends on 16.11.2026 at 16:55 o'clock.
At €9,900, this sits well above the recent used market for this model family: the median is €3,180, the 75th percentile is €6,263, and this ask is clearly ambitious rather than merely fair. It’s not a crazy number for a highly regarded Audio Note flagship, but it does ask a serious premium over the typical used spread, so value depends on provenance, service history, and how complete the package is.
The appeal is straightforward: the Jinro is prized for effortless drive, tonal density, and that big, relaxed, highly musical Audio Note presentation that keeps attracting serious tube lovers. If it’s genuinely clean, well cared for, and comes with strong supporting details like original packaging, documentation, and recent upkeep, it could still be a compelling buy for someone specifically chasing this sound.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Audio Note (UK) traces its roots to 1991, when Peter Qvortrup, a seasoned valve amplifier designer with prior experience at Audio Innovations, founded the company in Sussex, England. Collaborating initially with Hiroyasu Kondo, Qvortrup launched the OTO PP integrated amplifier that year—a modular valve design still in production today, hand-built in their Partridge Green factory. This enduring debut underscores the brand's commitment to timeless engineering over fleeting trends.
The company specializes in complete, in-house valve-based audio systems, crafting everything from turntable cartridges and tonearms to preamplifiers, power amplifiers, DACs, speakers, and cables. Their modular philosophy permeates the lineup, allowing tailored configurations while prioritizing premium components like custom-wound transformers and silver wiring for purest signal paths.
Positioned as Europe's largest and most prestigious maker of ultra-performance valve hi-fi, Audio Note (UK) commands the high-end niche, appealing to discerning audiophiles seeking musical authenticity over mass-market convenience. With a global distribution network and a reputation for longevity, it stands as a boutique benchmark for those investing in heirloom-grade sound reproduction.
