RADAR is a price search engine. We link to the original listing — we never sell direct. Transactions happen on the source site.
Recent comparable listings put the median at £829, with the 75th percentile at £1,482, so £1,750 is clearly ambitious rather than a market-leading buy. It is roughly £921 above the median and £268 beyond the upper quartile; unless this is an exceptional, fully serviced example with unusually complete accessories, there should be room to negotiate.
The Caspian M2 remains a highly regarded CD player, combining a solid, well-damped build with precise timing, transparent detail and a satisfying, full-bodied presentation. Its softly suspended transport, separate analogue and digital power supplies, and RCA, XLR and multiple digital outputs are genuine strengths. At this asking price, insist on a convincing demonstration with a variety of discs, confirm the remote is included, and check loading, tracking and display operation carefully; otherwise, a price closer to the upper end of the comparable range would make much more sense.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Roksan emerged in London in 1985, founded by Tufan Hashemi and Touraj Moghaddam, two Persian-heritage graduates of Imperial College London and Queen Mary College. Dissatisfied with prevailing turntable designs, they launched the groundbreaking Xerxes platform at that year's hi-fi show, challenging traditional construction and establishing the brand's reputation for radical innovation. Named after Roxana, daughter of Persian King Darius, Roksan infused its identity with cultural roots while rooting itself firmly in British audio engineering.
The brand specializes in high-fidelity components, starting with its iconic analog vinyl replay systems like the Xerxes turntable and Artemiz tonearm. It expanded into amplifiers (Kandy, Attessa, Caspian series), CD players, digital sources, and speakers, blending timeless design with robust engineering. Now hand-built in Rayleigh, Essex, under the Monitor Audio Group since 2016, products like the latest Caspian Series 4G cater to both vinyl enthusiasts and modern streamers.
Roksan occupies a distinctive niche in the high-end hi-fi market as a stylish British disruptor, prized for its boundary-pushing sound quality, reliability, and unconventional aesthetics. Far from mid-tier or vintage obscurity, it commands respect among discerning buyers seeking musical soul over conformity, with a legacy revitalized rather than diluted by its corporate home.
