Offered is „AV41 AV-Vorstufe 16 Kanäle, Dirac Live, HDMI 2.1“ by Arcam as second-hand device from the category „Sound Processor (Digital)“ on audio-markt.de - the online market place for high-end. The advert with the number 7509960580 ends on 27.12.2026 at 12:14 o'clock.
€2,290 is a strong buy: it sits below the €2,232–€2,568 middle-market band’s median of €2,302, and only slightly above the lower quartile of €2,232. For a clean Arcam AV41, that is bargain territory rather than merely fair value, especially given the limited supply of serious 16-channel processors.
The AV41 earns its reputation with capable Dolby Atmos, DTS:X and Auro-3D processing, HDMI 2.1 handling for 8K/60 and 4K/120, balanced XLR outputs, and included Dirac Live room correction. It is a particularly appealing centrepiece for a separate-amplifier cinema system, with useful streaming and eARC support as well. At this price, verify the remote, calibration microphone, and full HDMI/XLR operation, but a good-condition example looks like a genuine opportunity rather than a compromise.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Arcam stands as one of Britain's most respected audio engineering houses, founded in 1976 in Cambridge by John Dawson and Chris Evans, two university engineering students driven by a passion for music and sound quality. The company's name derives from "Amplification and Recording Cambridge," reflecting its original mission to craft amplifiers that prioritized musicality over raw power. The A60 integrated amplifier, their commercial debut in 1976, established the brand's philosophy: that true fidelity depends on meticulous design rather than wattage, earning critical acclaim and transforming a small operation into a fast-growing enterprise.
Arcam's product portfolio spans the full spectrum of high-fidelity electronics. The brand built its early reputation on low-distortion amplifiers before expanding into CD players during the 1990s—a category in which they have designed and manufactured for nearly three decades. Their innovations include pioneering separate DACs, DVD and Blu-ray players engineered from scratch in the UK, and the introduction of Class G amplification technology in 2015. More recently, they have integrated DIRAC room acoustic correction software into their home theater systems, demonstrating continued commitment to technical advancement.
Positioned firmly in the high-end audio market, Arcam commands a world-class reputation for producing some of the finest-sounding AV electronics available. The brand appeals to discerning audiophiles and music creators who value engineering integrity and sonic performance. Now part of HARMAN's Luxury Audio Group alongside Mark Levinson and Revel, Arcam continues to balance its heritage of British craftsmanship with contemporary design aesthetics, recently refreshing its industrial design to attract younger customers without compromising audio innovation.
