Offered is „Trio Omega – Ikonische High-End-Satelliten (Kugelwellenhörner) in Sandfarben, absolut makellos“ by Avantgarde Acoustic 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 5893393781 ends on 02.12.2026 at 12:38 o'clock.
This is a buyer’s market for exotic high-end horns, and EUR 16,500 looks like a fair-to-good entry point for a clean Avantgarde Trio Omega rather than an inflated ask. Direct used-market data is thin, so it is difficult to place the price precisely against quartiles, but the model’s rarity and original cost support the figure if this is a complete, well-presented pair.
The Trio Omega’s appeal is its huge scale, explosive dynamics, exceptional efficiency, and unusually open, low-compression presentation. Its roughly 109 dB sensitivity makes it superb with low-powered valve amplifiers, while the minimalist crossover and large Omega horns give voices and acoustic instruments startling immediacy. Check that both active bass sections, amplifiers, driver diaphragms, crossover units, grilles, bases, and adjustment hardware are present and healthy; replacement logistics can be awkward. If inspection confirms originality and quiet operation, EUR 16,500 is a worthwhile buy for someone equipped to accommodate these physically imposing speakers.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Avantgarde Acoustic was founded in 1991 by Holger Fromme and Matthias Ruff in the Odenwald region of Germany, near Darmstadt. The company's roots trace back to the mid-1980s when the two founders joined forces with a singular vision: to build the world's best loudspeakers. Fromme's passion for the brand stems from his youth, inspired by the overwhelming sonic power of open-air rock concerts featuring artists like Pink Floyd and Genesis—a dream he sought to recreate in the home listening environment. Today, Avantgarde Acoustic remains a handcrafted, German-manufactured operation, shipping its products to over 60 countries worldwide.
The brand specializes exclusively in horn loudspeakers and amplifiers, rejecting conventional speaker designs in favor of horn technology. Avantgarde's loudspeakers are engineered to deliver exceptionally low distortion through proprietary horn principles and original driver designs, complemented by the company's iTRON technology for precise diaphragm control. Their product range includes models such as the TRIO Classico and TRIO G3, representing decades of refinement in both acoustic performance and industrial design.
Avantgarde Acoustic occupies the ultra-premium, niche boutique segment of high-end audio. The brand commands significant respect among discerning audiophiles for its uncompromising engineering philosophy and handcrafted quality, though its distinctive horn aesthetic has historically met with mixed reception in mainstream American markets. Positioned as a luxury manufacturer for music enthusiasts willing to invest substantially in sonic excellence, Avantgarde represents a specialized, design-forward approach to speaker manufacturing that prioritizes acoustic purity and longevity over mass-market appeal.
