At US$3,399, this sits well above the typical used market for the 340i D3PX: it’s above the US$2,223 75th percentile and more than double the US$1,507 median, so the asking price is ambitious rather than a bargain. New examples have been around the US$6,900 level, so there is still meaningful new-vs-used savings here, but this is not priced like an easy pickup.
What keeps it interesting is that this is a genuinely high-spec integrated: strong solid-state drive, built-in DAC, and MM/MC phono stage in one chassis, which makes it especially appealing if you want a clean, all-in-one front end. For a buyer who values that flexibility and Moon’s reputation for smooth, authoritative sound, it can be a smart buy if condition is excellent and the extras are complete, but at this price I’d want clean cosmetics, proof of proper care, and original accessories.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Moon by Simaudio traces its roots to 1980, when Victor Sima, an audio engineer who emigrated from Israel to Canada, founded Sima Electronique in Quebec with a deliberate mission to craft superior-sounding audio products at accessible prices. Initially targeting professionals, the brand quickly won over audiophiles for its value and sonic excellence. Sima retired in 1994, selling to Jean Poulin, whose leadership elevated the company; by the late 1990s, the premium MOON series emerged from the successful Celeste line, embodying innovation and engineering precision while remaining privately held for unwavering control.
The brand specializes in high-performance electronics, excelling in integrated and power amplifiers, preamplifiers, DACs, and streaming solutions that prioritize musicality and build quality. Hand-assembled in-house with custom chassis and rigorous burn-in testing, MOON products span reference-grade separates to all-in-one systems like the ACE, alongside multi-channel AV amplifiers. While not venturing into speakers, turntables, headphones, or cables, their focus on pure analog and digital playback delivers cosmic precision and futuristic design.
Positioned firmly in the high-end market, Moon by Simaudio commands respect among discerning buyers for its clear, natural sound that makes music visceral rather than tweaky. Exported to 45 countries with accolades from Stereophile and The Absolute Sound, it rejects mass-market compromises, offering approachable luxury that bridges specialist hi-fi with broader appeal—vibrantly successful today as a Canadian benchmark for uncompromising performance.
