Offered is „DVP - S7700“ by Sony as second-hand device from the category „DVD-Audio Player“ on audio-markt.de - the online market place for high-end. The advert with the number 40684972 ends on 18.12.2026 at 07:44 o'clock.
€150 is a little above the usual market: recent comparable asking prices centre on €130, with the upper quartile at €140. That makes this a mildly ambitious ask rather than a bargain; around €130–€140 would feel more comfortably fair, assuming the condition and accessories are comparable.
The S7700 remains a desirable, over-engineered machine: superbly built, quiet in operation, with a substantial chassis, dual laser pickups, strong CD performance and useful digital outputs. It is especially appealing for someone wanting a serious CD/DVD transport with classic Sony ES-era construction rather than a disposable player. At €150, the included cables and accessories need to be genuinely complete, and the unit should demonstrate reliable loading and playback of both CDs and DVDs; laser wear is the main age-related concern.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Sony emerged from the ruins of post-World War II Japan, founded on May 7, 1946, by Masaru Ibuka and Akio Morita as Tokyo Tsushin Kogyo K.K. in Tokyo's Nihonbashi district. Starting with radio repairs and Japan's first magnetic tape recorder, the duo secured transistor licensing from Bell Labs, pioneering the TR-55 transistor radio in 1955. Renamed Sony Corporation in 1958—from the Latin "sonus" for sound—the brand symbolized Japan's ascent from cheap imitations to innovative leadership, fueled by Ibuka's engineering prowess and Morita's global marketing vision.
Sony's hi-fi legacy spans headphones, amplifiers, speakers, turntables, and DACs, alongside landmark formats like the Compact Disc in 1982 and Blu-ray. Iconic products include the Walkman for portable audio revolution and Trinitron televisions, blending consumer accessibility with cutting-edge tech. Today, offerings like the Signature Series headphones and ES amplifiers target discerning listeners seeking refined soundstaging and dynamic range.
Positioned as a mid-to-high-end powerhouse, Sony commands respect among knowledgeable buyers for blending mass-market reliability with premium performance, outpacing many pure audiophile brands in innovation and value. Far from vintage relic or niche boutique, it dominates with forward-thinking engineering, holding strong market share in headphones and streaming ecosystems.
