Angeboten wird „AF 3 Premium Rigid mit einer Basis“ von TechDAS als Gebrauchtgerät aus der Kategorie „Plattenspieler-Laufwerk“ bei audio-markt.de - dem Online-Marktplatz für High-End. Das Inserat mit der Nummer 1201915054 endet am 22.08.2026 um 06:04 Uhr.
Should you be paying €28,800 for this, or is the market still giving you room to negotiate? Against your recent comparable EUR listings, this sits well above the 75th percentile at €16,393, so I’d call the ask ambitious, not fair-market; it’s roughly €17,100 over the median of €11,724.
That said, this is the kind of turntable that earns its reputation when it’s complete and correctly set up: it’s a serious, high-mass, low-resonance design with excellent speed stability and the sort of effortless, low-noise presentation that rewards good cartridges and a proper arm/base match. If the base, suspension, and any original accessories are included and the history is clean, the upside is in buying a genuinely top-tier deck in a desirable configuration; at this price, I’d want evidence of careful ownership and recent servicing before getting excited.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
TechDAS emerged from the storied legacy of Japanese audio engineering, founded in 2010 as the house brand of Stella Inc., Japan's premier high-end audio distributor. Hideaki Nishikawa, a legendary figure known for his pioneering work at Stax and Micro Seiki—where he designed influential nonsuspended turntables like the RX-5000—established TechDAS to pursue ultimate analog playback. After leading an OEM venture post-Stax, Nishikawa channeled decades of expertise into air-bearing innovations, all crafted in Japan with meticulous precision.
The brand specializes exclusively in high-end analog turntables, renowned for the Air Force series that employs groundbreaking pneumatic technologies. Signature features include air suspension for vibration isolation, air-bearing platters, and vacuum hold-down systems, powered by external pumps. Models range from the accessible Air Force V at around $19,500 to the flagship Air Force Zero, exceeding $450,000, with each emphasizing superior machining, electronics, and soundstaging that redefines vinyl reproduction.
TechDAS commands a niche position at the pinnacle of the ultra-high-end market, earning global acclaim among audiophiles for its uncompromising craftsmanship and sonic transparency. Far from mid-tier or vintage fare, it appeals to discerning collectors seeking boutique excellence, with the Air Force line—starting from the seminal Air Force One—celebrated for pushing analog boundaries through "Digital Analog Supremacy."
