Offered is „A77 MK III ### top ### mint ###“ by Revox as second-hand device from the category „Tape Recorder“ on audio-markt.de - the online market place for high-end. The advert with the number 4296732629 ends on 01.12.2026 at 13:51 o'clock.
Are you buying exceptional restoration and provenance, or simply a clean example? At €3,800, this is genuinely ambitious: it sits well above the supplied 75th-percentile asking price of €2,508, while the median is €769 and the 25th percentile €405. The price only makes sense if “mint” means professionally serviced, fully tested, and unusually complete—not merely tidy cosmetics.
The A77 Mk III remains a desirable machine: its three-motor transport, three-head layout, solid mechanics, and serviceable modular electronics give it serious recording and playback capability. A truly original-owner example with documented maintenance, correct reels or accessories, excellent heads, and accurate speed, bias, meters, and transport operation can justify a premium. Still, at €3,800, insist on detailed service evidence and an in-person demonstration; otherwise, this is collector pricing rather than a straightforward buying opportunity.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Revox traces its origins to 1948 in Herisau, Switzerland, when Willi Studer founded his company as a workshop for electronic equipment, initially producing high-voltage oscilloscopes and early reel-to-reel tape machines under the Dynavox name. By 1951, Studer launched the first Revox-branded recorder, the T26, marking the brand's entry into premium consumer audio while reserving the Studer name for professional studio gear. This Swiss precision engineering heritage propelled Revox through decades of innovation, from the iconic A77 tape deck in 1977—paired with matching amplifiers, tuners, and turntables—to speaker development starting with the AX series in the 1970s, all designed to deliver studio-grade fidelity to discerning home listeners.
The brand's product focus centered on high-end analog playback, excelling in reel-to-reel tape recorders like the legendary A77 and B77, which became staples for audiophiles. Revox expanded into complete hi-fi systems, including integrated amplifiers, FM tuners, turntables sourced from partners like Thorens, and loudspeakers manufactured in their Black Forest facilities. While digital components like DACs and modern streaming gear emerged later, the core legacy remains in meticulously engineered tape machines and matched system components that prioritized sonic purity over mass-market appeal.
Today, Revox holds a revered position as a high-end vintage icon and collector's favorite, synonymous with uncompromising Swiss build quality and studio-derived performance. Though separated from Studer in 1994, the brand endures as a niche boutique force, recently reviving reel-to-reel production in 2016 with partners like Horch House, appealing to purists who value heritage engineering in an era of digital convenience.
