Offered is „EOS 5 Piano Black High Gloss | 09/2025 | nahezu neuwertig | 38.900 € inkl. MwSt. / VAT“ by Gryphon as second-hand device from the category „Standing Speaker“ on audio-markt.de - the online market place for high-end. The advert with the number 9545654885 ends on 21.11.2026 at 13:37 o'clock.
Compared with buying new, this is still a serious discount on a flagship floorstander, but against the used market it sits well above the pack: €38,900 is far beyond the €8,812 median and even over the €16,584 75th percentile, so I’d call it ambitious rather than a bargain. That said, it’s not random aspirational pricing if the speaker is genuinely near-new and includes the VAT invoice; for the right buyer, the gap to retail can still make sense.
What makes it compelling is the EOS 5’s reputation for true full-range scale, high sensitivity, and unusually refined top-end/detail retrieval in a big, properly engineered 3-way design. If the finish is immaculate and the provenance is clean, the appeal here is mainly condition, color, and recency rather than hunting a deal; just make sure the pair is complete and the cosmetic condition really matches “nearly new,” because at this level buyers expect very little compromise.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Gryphon Audio Designs emerged from Denmark in 1985, founded by Flemming E. Rasmussen as a passionate offshoot of his distribution company, 2R Marketing. What began as a spare-time project—a compact, dual-mono phono preamplifier known as the Gryphon Head Amp—quickly gained acclaim after debuting at the 1986 Chicago Consumer Electronics Show. Japanese distributors snapped it up, and the audio press hailed it as a "Best Buy," propelling Rasmussen to establish Gryphon as a dedicated entity by the early 1990s, free from import distractions. The brand's name draws from the mythical gryphon, symbolizing the fusion of lion-like power and eagle-like grace in music reproduction.
Gryphon specializes in uncompromising high-end electronics, starting with its legendary class-A phono stages and evolving into high-power amplifiers, preamplifiers, and integrated systems. The company expanded into full-system solutions with the 2002 Cantata stand-mount speakers, followed by flagship models like the massive Poseidon in 2004. Today, its portfolio encompasses speakers, the groundbreaking Apollo turntable—a collaboration with Helmut Brinkmann and Ortofon—and even cables, ensuring every link in the audio chain aligns with Gryphon's neutral, optimized design philosophy.
Positioned firmly at the pinnacle of high-end audio, Gryphon commands respect among discerning audiophiles for its visionary engineering and sonic purity, often setting benchmarks since its inception as one of Europe's earliest true high-end pioneers. Rasmussen's team-driven approach yields products that prioritize musical essence over compromise, attracting buyers who demand reference-level performance in home systems.
