Offered is „Prestige One“ by QLN as second-hand device from the category „Compact Speaker“ on audio-markt.de - the online market place for high-end. The advert with the number 7104053201 ends on 16.10.2026 at 06:17 o'clock.
€3,500 is a strong deal: it sits well below the €3,917 25th percentile and far under the €4,404 median for recent comparable EUR listings, so this is priced to move rather than merely “fair.” It’s close enough to the lower end that I’d treat it as a genuine bargain if the listing is complete and the speakers are working properly.
That makes it attractive because the Qln house sound is usually about clean, articulate mids, natural tone, and solid imaging—qualities that age well if the drivers and crossover are healthy. In good condition, the upside is simple: you’re buying into a respected speaker at a price that leaves room for setup, stands, or a future refresh, with no need to overthink the market.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
QLN Acoustics, a Swedish hi-fi brand, was founded in 1977 by Nils Liljeroth and Lars Quicklund, with Mats Andersen joining in 1982 as a key designer. The company quickly gained traction in Europe, North America, and the Far East during the early 1980s, building a reputation for innovative loudspeakers that prioritize natural sound reproduction and precise soundstaging. After a challenging period from 2003 to 2012 under different ownership that produced less acclaimed products, Andersen repurchased the brand in 2013, reviving its original ethos with updated classics.
QLN focuses exclusively on high-quality loudspeakers, handcrafted in Sweden, rather than amplifiers, turntables, DACs, headphones, or cables. Signature models like the Prestige series (including the One, Five, and recent flagship Reference 9), Signature 3, Qubic 10, and Sonora floorstander feature distinctive truncated pyramid cabinets, time-aligned drivers, slanted baffles, and proprietary Qboard damping for minimal resonance and cabinet noise. These designs emphasize effortless musical flow and a "disappearing act" where the speakers vanish, leaving only the performance.
Positioned as a niche boutique in the high-end market, QLN commands cult status among discerning audiophiles for its timeless Scandinavian engineering and uncompromised fidelity. Revived models honor 1980s icons while incorporating decades of refinement, appealing to buyers seeking refined, musically engaging compact and floorstanding options that integrate seamlessly into modern homes.
