Angeboten wird „NYQUIST MK2“ von Brinkmann Audio als Neugerät aus der Kategorie „D/A Wandler“ bei audio-markt.de - dem Online-Marktplatz für High-End. Das Inserat mit der Nummer 2039735281 endet am 10.07.2026 um 09:10 Uhr.
Brinkmann’s DACs sit in the serious high-end camp, and this one is priced right in line with that tier. At €12,500, it lands just above the €12,372 median and essentially in the middle of the recent used market, so this reads as a fair ask rather than a bargain or a stretch.
That makes it interesting if the unit is clean and complete, especially with cables and accessories included, because those add real value and reduce the usual hunt for extras. The upside here is straightforward: a well-regarded, reference-level digital front end with a strong reputation for resolution, ease, and long-term ownership appeal. If condition is genuinely excellent, this is a sensible buy; if any service history or accessory details are vague, that’s the main thing to verify.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Brinkmann Audio traces its origins to 1985 in Germany, when Helmut Brinkmann founded the company after selling his stake in Audiolabor, where he had developed acclaimed products like the Konstant turntable. Fans urged him to continue his innovations, leading to Brinkmann's debut with the legendary Balance turntable—a design still in continuous production today. Handcrafted entirely from German parts in Germany, the brand embodies Helmut's relentless pursuit of the "perfect illusion" of musical playback, rooted in engineering simplicity and enduring quality.
The company specializes in high-end analog components, renowned for its exceptional turntables, tonearms, and phono preamplifiers, with past offerings including phono cartridges. Brinkmann has expanded into electronics, producing preamplifiers, power amplifiers, and integrated amplifiers to complete the audio chain, while designing and manufacturing every element in-house for seamless synergy.
Positioned firmly in the ultra-high-end market, Brinkmann commands a cult following among discerning audiophiles for its refined German craftsmanship and uncompromising performance. It stands as a niche boutique icon, delivering magical, lifelike sound that elevates vinyl and digital playback to reference levels, appealing to collectors and perfectionists who demand the pinnacle of hi-fi artistry.
