Nette set amphion one18's. Komen uit een rookvrije studio omgeving. Inclusief transport kist. Gaan weg in verband met een upgrade naar grotere amphions.
Are you buying a pair, and is the condition genuinely clean? At €1,750, this looks like a strong deal rather than merely fair: a recent used-market listing was around €2,300, while older European pricing put new pairs near €2,700. Assuming the listing is for the pair, the saving is meaningful.
The One18 remains a highly regarded, honest nearfield: fast, controlled, unusually spacious, and more full-range and effortless than the smaller One15. Its 6.5-inch aluminium woofer and titanium tweeter deliver excellent midrange clarity without making bass feel anaemic, while the passive design rewards a capable amplifier. Check both tweeters, woofer surrounds, terminals, cabinets, and confirm the original grilles or packaging if relevant. At €1,750, clean examples are worth pursuing; the only real ambiguity is whether the seller means one speaker or the complete pair.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Amphion Loudspeakers Oy traces its roots to 1998, when Finnish entrepreneur and engineer Anssi Hyvönen, alongside partners Petteri Koljonen and Antti Louhivaara, founded the company in Helsinki. Inspired by early encounters with high-fidelity sound in his hometown of Kuopio, Hyvönen drew on international experience in audio sales to establish a brand rooted in technical precision. The operation relocated to Kuopio in 2000 for practical reasons, including proximity to manufacturing resources, where it remains today as a small, dedicated outfit of around 17 employees crafting products entirely by hand in Finland.
The brand specializes in loudspeakers, offering both passive models for home hi-fi—such as the acclaimed Argon, Xenon, and Helium series—and professional studio monitors introduced in 2013. Their lineup extends to bass extenders and amplifiers, including the recent active One25A monitor, but eschews categories like turntables, DACs, headphones, or cables. This focused portfolio emphasizes room-independent acoustic design, minimizing sensitivity to listening environment flaws for transparent, uncolored reproduction.
Amphion occupies a niche boutique position in the high-end market, prized by discerning audiophiles and professionals for its award-winning transparency and build quality. Exported to 58 countries since early successes at shows like High End Munich in 2000, it commands respect for Finnish craftsmanship—evidenced by the Key Flag Symbol—while maintaining a modest scale that prioritizes enduring performance over mass production.
