Ik ga naar een compactere setup en mijn s3 is daarin te groot geworden. Het is een geweldig flexibele controller (ook voor andere software dan protools) met veel visuele feedback. Ik ben de eerste eig
Compared with buying a newer desktop controller at this money, €1,750 looks a touch ambitious, but not outlandish for an Avid S3-class surface. Against the local used pool you gave, it sits above the €1,252 median and below the €2,273 75th percentile, so this is a mid-to-upper-market ask rather than a bargain.
What makes it worth considering is the S3’s compact footprint, deep EUCON integration, and serious control density for mixing and post work. If it’s complete, clean, and comes from a careful owner with the original PSU/cabling, that supports the price; just verify every fader, encoder, display, and Ethernet/AVB function, since a controller like this only makes sense when it’s fully healthy.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
AVID HiFi, founded in 1995 by Conrad Mas in Huntingdon, Cambridgeshire, England, emerged from humble garage beginnings with a singular mission to eliminate vibration from audio replay chains. Mas, a lifelong turntable obsessive since his teenage years, bootstrapped the company through prototypes shown at international shows, evolving from earlier ventures like Master Audio Systems and Acutus Audio amid 1980s financial challenges. Handcrafted in British factories for three decades, AVID remains founder-owned and operated, embodying uncompromising engineering heritage.
The brand excels in high-performance analogue audio, renowned for its turntables like the flagship Acutus, which spawned an extensive range, alongside precision tonearms, phono stages, and cartridges. Its portfolio extends to synergistic amplifiers, loudspeakers, cables, and isolation devices, enabling complete groove-to-ear systems that prioritize vibration control and sonic purity.
Positioned as a niche boutique leader in the high-end hi-fi market, AVID commands respect among discerning audiophiles for its bold designs, micro-precision manufacturing, and global distribution across 50 countries. Delivered with true fidelity, its products stand as world-class instruments for those seeking uncompromised realism.
