Offered is „Marantz SACD 30n“ by Marantz as second-hand device from the category „SACD Player“ on audio-markt.de - the online market place for high-end. The advert with the number 2398643760 ends on 18.12.2026 at 10:04 o'clock.
Good condition at €1,950 makes this a genuine bargain: it sits below the €2,159 25th-percentile comparable and well under the €2,261 median, rather than merely being fairly priced. For a clean, properly working example, that is notably attractive value.
The SACD 30n remains an unusually complete digital source: a serious CD/SACD player combined with a capable DAC, HEOS network streamer, AirPlay 2 and Bluetooth. It handles high-resolution network and USB playback, while its Marantz presentation is typically smooth, detailed and easy to live with. At this price, it can replace several separate boxes and is worth pursuing, provided the remote, antennas and original accessories are included and the disc transport and network functions are demonstrated.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Marantz originated in the United States, founded in 1953 by Saul Bernard Marantz, a music enthusiast and amateur musician born in Brooklyn in 1911. Dissatisfied with the audio equipment of the era, he crafted the groundbreaking Audio Consolette preamplifier in 1952 from his New York home, selling the first 100 units rapidly and prompting the formal establishment of the company in Woodside, Queens. Though production later shifted to Japan in partnership with manufacturers like Standard Radio in 1966, and the brand evolved through ownership changes including Superscope and eventual integration into larger groups, its heritage remains rooted in American ingenuity and a relentless pursuit of musical fidelity.
The brand excels in high-end audio components, particularly amplifiers, preamplifiers, and integrated systems that defined its golden era. Iconic models like the Model 7 preamplifier (1958), Model 9 power amplifier (1960), and Model 10B tuner (1964) set benchmarks for performance, while later offerings expanded to tuners, receivers, and CD players. Marantz briefly ventured into speakers under designer Ed May in the 1970s but focused primarily on electronics rather than turntables, headphones, DACs, or cables, emphasizing separates renowned for their "Most Musical Sound."
Marantz commands a premium position in the hi-fi market, revered as a high-end pioneer that shaped the audiophile landscape through the 1970s zenith. Today, it blends vintage allure with modern elegance, appealing to discerning buyers who value durability, innovation, and warm, detailed sound signatures over mass-market accessibility.
