Ich biete hier einen Onkyo Stereo Graphic Equalizer EQ-240 an. Er hat bis zum Abbau meines Heimkinos vor 4 Jahren ohne Probleme funktioniert. Seitdem lag er trocken in einem Karton.
Are you specifically after the EQ-240’s period styling and hands-on control, rather than modern DSP? At €100, this is an ambitious ask: your two comparable listings put the median at €76, with the 75th percentile at €88. It is therefore €12 above the upper quartile, and should ideally include excellent cosmetic condition, proof that both channels work, and all original accessories to justify it.
The EQ-240 remains a capable Japanese stereo equalizer, offering seven bands per channel, ±12 dB adjustment, bypass, tape-loop connectivity, and a useful fluorescent spectrum display. It is a good fit for taming room balance or shaping a vintage system, while retaining a neutral bypass option. Check every slider, display segment, input/output, and the absence of hum or scratchiness; at €100, those checks matter. With clean testing and original packaging or manual it may be defensible, but nearer €75–€85 would be the more convincing buy.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Onkyo traces its roots to postwar Japan, founded in 1946 in Osaka by Takeshi Goda, an engineer at Matsushita Electric who envisioned high-quality Japanese loudspeakers. Initially established as Osaka Denki Onkyo K.K., the company began production in 1948 with the acclaimed ED-100 speaker featuring a 25 cm driver, quickly building a reputation through LP concerts and innovative designs that resonated with audiophiles.
The brand excels in premium home audio, renowned for AV receivers, hi-fi amplifiers, and surround sound speakers that deliver exceptional clarity and power. Its portfolio spans turntables, DACs, headphones, and cables, bolstered by acquisitions like Pioneer's home electronics division in 2015, enabling cutting-edge integrations such as internet radio and high-resolution streaming.
Onkyo holds a solid mid-tier position in the hi-fi market, prized by discerning buyers for reliable performance and value rather than ultra-high-end exotica. Despite bankruptcy challenges in the late 2010s, its revival under new ownership preserves a legacy of technological innovation and pure sound enjoyment, appealing to both vintage enthusiasts and modern home cinema setups.
