Offered is „V20“ by EAR Yoshino as second-hand device from the category „Tube-Fullamp“ on audio-markt.de - the online market place for high-end. The advert with the number 590898355 ends on 31.10.2026 at 06:53 o'clock.
This is a fair ask, sitting a touch above the €4,132 median and just under the €4,813 75th percentile for recent EUR comparables. At €4,800, it’s near the top end of the normal range, so I’d call it high but still defensible rather than a bargain.
What makes it appealing is the V-20’s reputation for a very open, refined tube presentation with real drive and sweetness, so a clean used unit can be a strong long-term buy. In good condition, the key upside is that you’re getting a well-regarded integrated without paying above-market premium territory; just make sure any service history, spare tubes, and original packaging are accounted for, since those matter more at this price.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
