Angeboten wird „Ovation mit Tonarm Clarify“ von clearaudio als Gebrauchtgerät aus der Kategorie „Plattenspieler-Laufwerk“ bei audio-markt.de - dem Online-Marktplatz für High-End. Das Inserat mit der Nummer 9864083046 endet am 01.08.2026 um 09:04 Uhr.
At €5,950 this asking price leans toward a bargain versus the recent used market for the Clearaudio Ovation, where comparable listings cluster around a median of about €7,500 and a typical used range of roughly €6,750–€8,000 in EUR. For a belt‑drive turntable of this calibre, that puts the figure at the lower end of what buyers have been paying recently, especially if the condition is genuinely as described and the package is complete.
Before committing, verify the condition of the plinth and bearing, since any binding or rumble in the main bearing will undermine what the Ovation is supposed to deliver acoustically. Check that the armboard and tonearm sockets are free of corrosion and that the power supply and any included cartridge are present and functioning, as sourcing replacements at this level can quickly erode the apparent savings in EUR.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Clearaudio, a pinnacle of German analog engineering, traces its roots to 1978 in Erlangen, when founder Peter Suchy patented the company's inaugural moving-coil cartridge. This family-owned enterprise, now steered by Peter's children—Patrick, Veronica, and Robert Suchy—has upheld a relentless pursuit of perfection, encapsulated in its philosophy: "Take the best and make it better, only then is it just good enough." Over 45 years, Clearaudio has evolved from humble beginnings into a global benchmark for vinyl playback, crafting products in its high-tech facility amid the scientific hub of Friedrich-Alexander University.
The brand's portfolio centers on high-end turntables, renowned for their transparent acrylic components, parallel-tracking tonearms, and precision mechanics that deliver unparalleled rotational stability. Complementing these are meticulously engineered moving-coil cartridges, phonostages, and tonearms, with extensions into analog accessories and even reissued Deutsche Grammophon classical recordings. While not venturing deeply into digital realms or speakers, Clearaudio's focus remains unyieldingly analog, prioritizing symbiotic magnetic, mechanical, and electrical symmetry for lifelike sound reproduction.
Positioned firmly in the high-end audiophile market, Clearaudio commands respect among discerning vinyl enthusiasts worldwide, serving over 80 countries with turntables that redefine standards. Its boutique reputation stems from in-house innovation and flawless German craftsmanship, appealing to collectors and serious listeners who demand reference-level performance without compromise.
