Offered is „The Classic - 25 Jahre Jubiläum“ by Pro-Ject 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 6976231972 ends on 21.12.2026 at 06:17 o'clock.
At €490, this sits above the €276 median but well below the €828 75th percentile, so it reads as a fair-to-good ask rather than a bargain. It’s not cheap versus the middle of the market, but it is still comfortably inside the normal used spread for recent comparables.
As a buyer, the appeal is that this is one of those Pro-Ject decks that tends to get the essentials right: solid build, sensible engineering, and a presentation that can sound clean and rhythmically composed when properly set up. If the listing is genuinely good condition and includes the usual key bits, the upside is mainly in getting a well-liked table without having to chase a mintier, pricier example. I’d want to confirm platter, dust cover, cartridge/stylus status, and that it runs quietly and holds speed, but nothing here screams caution.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Pro-Ject Audio Systems traces its roots to 1991 in Austria's Weinviertel region, north of Vienna, where founder Heinz Lichtenegger launched the brand amid the CD revolution. Kicked out of music school as a youth, Lichtenegger channeled his passion for analog sound into affordable, high-quality turntables at a time when vinyl seemed obsolete. His debut Pro-Ject 1, hand-assembled in the Czech Republic, earned rave reviews as a top high-end device, igniting a success story that relocated headquarters to Vienna before returning to Mistelbach in Lower Austria.
The brand excels in turntables, establishing itself as the world's largest and leading producer in that category, while expanding into a full spectrum of hi-fi components since 2000. Offerings include amplifiers, DACs, headphone amps, speakers, cables, and phono stages, all emphasizing essential sound reproduction with durable materials and minimalist design. Manufacturing remains European—primarily in Czechia, Slovakia, and Germany—prioritizing sustainability through local sourcing, short transport, and products built for longevity.
Pro-Ject holds a commanding niche as the go-to for mid-tier audiophiles seeking boutique European craftsmanship without extravagant pricing. Distributed in over 80 countries, it appeals to vinyl revivalists and discerning buyers who value analog purity, innovation, and value-driven performance over flashy excess, cementing its reputation as a pioneer in accessible high-fidelity.
