Angeboten wird „Colibri XGM“ von Van den Hul als Neugerät aus der Kategorie „Tonabnehmer MC“ bei audio-markt.de - dem Online-Marktplatz für High-End. Das Inserat mit der Nummer 7570348839 endet am 26.06.2026 um 10:15 Uhr.
At EUR 2,300 for a used Van den Hul Colibri XGM in EUR condition, this matches the new price exactly, making it ambitious for the secondhand market. Our recent comps show a median asking price of EUR 2,287 across five similar listings, with a tight range from EUR 1,790 (25th percentile) to EUR 2,959 (75th). Expect used examples to trade 20-40% below new in good shape, so you'd want room to negotiate down to around EUR 1,800-2,000 for fair value—otherwise, it's no steal.
Before biting, verify the cable's age and usage history, as Colibri XGM/3s can suffer jacket cracking or oxidation on older terminations after 10+ years. Confirm both XLR ends are original, undamaged, and measure length precisely—replacements aren't cheap. Test for microphonics by gently flexing during audition.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Van den Hul, a Dutch high-end audio brand, traces its origins to 1980 when Aalt Jouke (A.J.) van den Hul, an engineer and physics professor at Delft University of Technology, founded the company in the Netherlands. Driven by a passion for flawless natural sound reproduction, he initially patented innovative stylus tips for phono cartridges before expanding into broader hi-fi solutions. From modest beginnings, the firm quickly gained traction through pioneering designs like the Frog, Grasshopper, and Colibri moving coil cartridges.
The brand specializes in premium moving coil phono cartridges and a wide array of audio cables, including groundbreaking technologies such as Linear Structured Carbon and hybrid metal conductors. While it has designed electronic equipment, Van den Hul's core focus remains on optimizing phono transfer and signal transmission integrity, with products serving both home hi-fi systems and professional studios. Interconnects like The Name exemplify their commitment to accessible high performance without compromising quality.
Today, Van den Hul holds a respected position in the high-end market, exported to over 70 countries and favored by audiophiles seeking precision and durability. Its physicist-led innovations have cemented a niche boutique reputation among discerning buyers who prioritize signal purity over mass-market appeal, blending heritage craftsmanship with enduring sonic excellence.
