Angeboten wird „6000A Play“ von Audiolab als Neugerät aus der Kategorie „Transistor-Vollverstärker“ bei audio-markt.de - dem Online-Marktplatz für High-End. Das Inserat mit der Nummer 7366039204 endet am 01.08.2026 um 06:24 Uhr.
€849 is ambitious versus the used market: it sits well above the €576 75th percentile and even more so against the €522 median, so I’d only bite if it has unusually strong provenance or a bundle of extras.
That said, this is a respected all-round integrated with a clean, musical presentation and enough drive for most sensible speakers, which is why it holds demand in the used market. If the unit is genuinely tidy, from careful ownership, and includes the original remote, box, and manual, it is still a solid buy for someone who wants an easy, well-balanced amp rather than chasing bargains.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Audiolab emerged from the frustration of two Imperial College students, Philip Swift and Derek Scotland, who in 1983 founded the brand in Britain to deliver high-quality hi-fi without exorbitant prices or needless complexity. Their debut 8000A integrated amplifier swiftly became a benchmark, praised for its robust build, transparent sound, and minimalist design that prioritized musical purity over gimmicks. This origin story rooted Audiolab in a philosophy of accessible excellence, evolving from kitchen prototypes to a lineup of landmark components like the 8000S preamp, 8000T tuner, and 8000M monoblocs.
The brand focuses on core hi-fi categories, excelling in integrated and power amplifiers, preamplifiers, DACs, CD players, tuners, and phono stages, with forays into AV processors and multi-channel amps during its TAG McLaren era from 1997 to 2004. Since joining the International Audio Group in 2004, Audiolab has refined its no-nonsense aesthetic while expanding to modern streaming and digital sources, always emphasizing engineering that extracts maximum performance from any system.
Audiolab holds a solid mid-tier position in the hi-fi market, renowned among discerning buyers for exceptional value—delivering near-high-end sound quality at approachable prices. It appeals to purists seeking reliable, unadorned British engineering rather than boutique exotica or vintage collectibles, maintaining a loyal following for its enduring reputation in straightforward, music-first performance.
