Te koop usher dancer mini-x diamond als nieuw met bijhorende subs ..Super speakers die je niet elke dag tegenkomt, de enige set die wereldwijd te koop is. Kijk goed, tweedehands exemplaren zijn alleen
Compared with new speakers in this class, €3,950 is not cheap, but for a like-new pair of these it looks broadly fair rather than stretched. The Mini Dancer 1 was a serious model at launch, around €2,100 in today’s money at its RM$12,400 list price, so the used ask is clearly a premium over old retail but still in the zone you’d expect for a well-kept, high-end import with the diamond tweeter.
What makes them worth chasing is the blend of refinement and scale: strong imaging, a detailed but smooth top end, and bass that is tuneful for a compact floorstander. They’re well regarded for sounding bigger than they look, and like-new condition matters here because finish, driver matching, and cabinet integrity are part of the appeal. If the original boxes/spikes are included, that’s a nice plus; otherwise this still reads as a solid buy if you want a polished, musical speaker rather than a bargain-bin gamble.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Usher Audio traces its roots to 1972, when Tsai Lien-shui founded the company in central Taiwan as a modest shop selling imported audio components and offering repair services. Starting with a passion for high-fidelity sound, Tsai drew on his growing expertise to assemble his own products, naming the brand "Usher" after a suggestion evoking his Taiwanese nickname A-zuei. From these humble beginnings in Taichung, the company expanded into a dedicated factory, cementing its place among Taiwan's pioneering audio manufacturers.
The brand specializes in high-end loudspeakers and amplifiers, crafting cutting-edge designs that emphasize precision engineering and exacting standards. Iconic offerings include floorstanding models like the Dancer series, which earned a Best of the Best Golden Ear Award in 2005 as the first Asian winner, and more recent bookshelf speakers such as the SD500 with its diamond tweeter. Usher avoids diversification into turntables, DACs, headphones, or cables, focusing instead on transducers and amplification that deliver exceptional clarity and dynamics.
Usher holds a respected niche in the global high-end market, favored by discerning audiophiles for its transparent, musical performance often compared favorably to electrostatic panels. While not a household name in the US, it enjoys cult status among insiders who praise its value and build quality, positioning it as a boutique Taiwanese powerhouse for serious hi-fi systems.
