Angeboten wird „Larsen 9 aus der Ausstellung“ von Larsen als Ausstellungsstück aus der Kategorie „Standlautsprecher“ bei audio-markt.de - dem Online-Marktplatz für High-End. Das Inserat mit der Nummer 918783120 endet am 09.06.2026 um 13:22 Uhr.
This is a buyer’s market for high-end floorstanders, but the €5,900 asking price for the Larsen 9 “aus der Ausstellung” is ambitious—it sits well above the 75th percentile (€5,153) of recent comparable used listings, where the median is €4,226. While not a bargain, it reflects the rarity of an original-exhibition piece in excellent condition.
The Larsen 9 is a top-tier 2½-way floorstanding speaker renowned for its deep, precise bass down to 22Hz and live-like spatial depth, thanks to three Scan-Speak Illuminator tweeters and a unique triangular bass-reflex design. As an exhibition piece with only ~4 years of age and likely original-owner condition, it offers meaningful upside in rarity and performance consistency, making it a worthwhile buy if you value top-line sound and provenance.

Larsen HiFi, founded in 2007 by John Larsen in the Swedish town of Skillingaryd, draws deeply from the nation's storied audio heritage. Once home to the pioneering Sonab brand, the area shaped Larsen's vision, honed during 16 years collaborating with the late Stig Carlsson—a legendary designer known for eccentric yet brilliant speakers like the Sonab OA-116. This lineage infuses Larsen products with a commitment to transcending room acoustics, a hallmark of Carlsson's influence that John Larsen and designer Anders Eriksson carry forward.
The brand focuses exclusively on high-performance loudspeakers, particularly floorstanding models such as the HiFi 8 and the acclaimed 9. These eschew amplifiers, turntables, DACs, headphones, or cables, zeroing in on speaker design that prioritizes driver integration and cabinet engineering to minimize environmental interference. Models like the Black 4.3 exemplify this singular pursuit, delivering transparency and scale without typical room-bound limitations.
Positioned firmly in the high-end niche, Larsen commands respect among discerning audiophiles for its boutique ethos and room-ignoring prowess. Production persists post-John Larsen's passing, distributed through specialists like Audio Skies in the US, appealing to collectors and purists who value Swedish precision over mass-market appeal. At prices around $7000 per pair for flagships, it stands as a confident choice for those seeking uncompromised fidelity.
