Offered is „Studer Revox B790 Professional Direct Drive Linear Tracking Turntable with Denon DL103 MC“ by Revox as second-hand device from the category „Record Player complete“ on audio-markt.de - the online market place for high-end. The advert with the number 115071615 ends on 26.12.2026 at 12:09 o'clock.
Good condition makes €700 a fair-to-slightly-strong asking price for a Revox B790, though not an outright bargain. Ordinary examples commonly appear around €400–€600, while clean, serviced units reach roughly €700–€1,000; €700 is therefore justified if “good” means fully tested rather than merely presentable.
The B790 remains a superbly engineered, rare tangential-tracking deck: direct drive, excellent speed stability, and unusually convenient record tracking without the usual tonearm-alignment fuss. Its understated Revox build and scarcity add genuine appeal. At this price, confirm that cueing, track selection, repeat, end-of-side return, speed controls, and the lid all work correctly, and ask whether the cartridge, stylus, dust cover, and original accessories are included. A documented service or recent calibration would make €700 particularly attractive; without that, negotiate toward €600.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Revox traces its origins to 1948 in Herisau, Switzerland, when Willi Studer founded his company as a workshop for electronic equipment, initially producing high-voltage oscilloscopes and early reel-to-reel tape machines under the Dynavox name. By 1951, Studer launched the first Revox-branded recorder, the T26, marking the brand's entry into premium consumer audio while reserving the Studer name for professional studio gear. This Swiss precision engineering heritage propelled Revox through decades of innovation, from the iconic A77 tape deck in 1977—paired with matching amplifiers, tuners, and turntables—to speaker development starting with the AX series in the 1970s, all designed to deliver studio-grade fidelity to discerning home listeners.
The brand's product focus centered on high-end analog playback, excelling in reel-to-reel tape recorders like the legendary A77 and B77, which became staples for audiophiles. Revox expanded into complete hi-fi systems, including integrated amplifiers, FM tuners, turntables sourced from partners like Thorens, and loudspeakers manufactured in their Black Forest facilities. While digital components like DACs and modern streaming gear emerged later, the core legacy remains in meticulously engineered tape machines and matched system components that prioritized sonic purity over mass-market appeal.
Today, Revox holds a revered position as a high-end vintage icon and collector's favorite, synonymous with uncompromising Swiss build quality and studio-derived performance. Though separated from Studer in 1994, the brand endures as a niche boutique force, recently reviving reel-to-reel production in 2016 with partners like Horch House, appealing to purists who value heritage engineering in an era of digital convenience.
