Offered is „by Audioplan Achilles Ultra - Endverstärker - Aktion bis 30.06.2026“ by Tsakiridis Devices as new device from the category „Tube-Poweramp“ on audio-markt.de - the online market place for high-end. The advert with the number 9129752472 ends on 20.10.2026 at 06:46 o'clock.
Compared with buying a new mono pair at around €3,643–€4,771, €4,400 for a used pair is not a bargain; it’s upper-fair to slightly ambitious unless the listing is exceptionally clean and includes original packaging, receipt, and recent service. The obvious alternative at this money is either a new entry in the same family or a broader search of the used market, where asking prices around €3,990 and €4,400 show this model can sit in that zone when condition is strong.
The reason to buy is simple: these are well-regarded 8W class-A triode monoblocks, and the Achilles Ultra version adds the better parts and execution that enthusiasts pay for. If this set is original-owner, lightly used, and complete, the appeal is the synergy of low-power purity, rich tone, and strong build in a compact mono format. At €4,400, I’d want proof of health and freshness, but a properly cared-for pair can still be a very worthwhile buy.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Tsakiridis Devices emerged from Greece in the late 1980s as a family-owned venture born of pure audiophile passion. Established around 1987-1989, the company began when its founders crafted high-end audio gear for themselves and fellow enthusiasts, seeking exceptional sound without extravagant costs. Handmade in Greece with premium components, their products reflect a commitment to tube-based excellence that has defined the brand's heritage ever since.
The lineup centers on valve amplifiers and preamplifiers, including standout models like the Alexander preamp and Artemis power amp, alongside integrated options such as the Aeolos. Their focus remains on tube-driven electronics—single-ended triode designs like the Achilles with 300B or 2A3 tubes—that prioritize musicality and simplicity, eschewing speakers, turntables, or digital converters.
Positioned as makers of affordable high-end audio, Tsakiridis Devices occupies a niche boutique space, delivering tube warmth and detail at accessible prices—often under $3,000—that punches above its weight. Reviewers praise their fresh tonality and ability to elevate modest speakers, cementing a reputation among discerning buyers for reliable, attractive gear that democratizes true hi-fi joy.
