Offered is „DVD Standard - DVD Player / guter Zustand“ by Krell as second-hand device from the category „DVD Device“ on audio-markt.de - the online market place for high-end. The advert with the number 9717896737 ends on 17.11.2026 at 14:22 o'clock.
Think of it as the alternative to a modern generic DVD spinner at this price: this is a genuine high-end transport/DAC-era piece, and at €1,099 it looks like a strong buy versus the recent used market. With a median at €2,544 and even the 25th percentile at €1,520, this lands comfortably below the low end of the normal range, so it reads as a bargain rather than a fair-price listing.
What makes it appealing is the Krell build, serious power-supply engineering, and the kind of robust, weighty presentation that made these Standard-series machines desirable in their day. It was originally an €8,000 player, and for a well-kept example the upside is real if you want a statement-era disc machine for red-book and DVD playback. As with any older disc player, the only real questions are laser life, loading smoothness, and whether the remote and tray mechanics are intact.

Krell Industries, founded in 1980 in the United States by Dan D'Agostino and his wife Rondi, emerged from a passion for pushing audio engineering boundaries. Based initially in Bridgeport, Connecticut, and later settling in nearby Orange, the brand drew its name from the advanced alien race in the 1956 film Forbidden Planet, symbolizing limitless technological power. The company's debut at the 1981 Consumer Electronics Show with the KSA-100, a high-power Class A amplifier, sparked immediate demand and established Krell as a force in American hi-fi innovation.
Krell specializes in high-end amplification, with its power amplifiers—epitomized by flagships like the Master Reference Amplifier—earning legendary status for their raw dynamics and precision. The lineup extends to preamplifiers, surround sound processors, digital-to-analog converters, CD and Super Audio CD players, loudspeakers, and subwoofers, all engineered for uncompromised performance in music and home theater systems.
Positioned firmly at the pinnacle of the high-end audio market, Krell commands respect among discerning audiophiles for its cutting-edge circuitry, massive power supplies, and relentless pursuit of sonic excellence. A top-tier brand alongside legends like Levinson and Threshold, it appeals to buyers seeking reference-level gear that defines the genre, even amid recent ownership transitions following Rondi's passing in 2024.
