Biete Sony Compact AV System DAV S500 mit Reciever und Surround-System (5 Satelliten-Boxen - 1 Center, 2 vorne, 2 hinten), Subwoofer, Fernsteuerung. Boxenständer von Vogel’s mit sehr stabilem Standfuß sind in gutem Zustand, Wandhalterungen mit Schrauben. Möglich dass einige Kleinteile fehlen.
At €75, this is a fair-to-good buy for a complete DAV-S500 if it’s actually working and still includes the proprietary speakers and sub. It’s an older all-in-one Sony home-theater package, so the market is usually driven more by completeness and condition than by raw hi-fi value; €75 lands in the sensible zone rather than feeling expensive for the right buyer.
What makes it worthwhile is the self-contained setup: DVD/SACD/CD playback, Dolby Digital/DTS decoding, FM/AM tuner, and a matched 5.1 speaker set with a powered sub, all in a compact footprint. The upside is strongest if it’s an original, lightly used package with the remote and all speakers present. The main thing to verify is completeness, because missing the custom speakers, sub, or remote hurts value fast on these systems.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Sony emerged from the ruins of post-World War II Japan, founded on May 7, 1946, by Masaru Ibuka and Akio Morita as Tokyo Tsushin Kogyo K.K. in Tokyo's Nihonbashi district. Starting with radio repairs and Japan's first magnetic tape recorder, the duo secured transistor licensing from Bell Labs, pioneering the TR-55 transistor radio in 1955. Renamed Sony Corporation in 1958—from the Latin "sonus" for sound—the brand symbolized Japan's ascent from cheap imitations to innovative leadership, fueled by Ibuka's engineering prowess and Morita's global marketing vision.
Sony's hi-fi legacy spans headphones, amplifiers, speakers, turntables, and DACs, alongside landmark formats like the Compact Disc in 1982 and Blu-ray. Iconic products include the Walkman for portable audio revolution and Trinitron televisions, blending consumer accessibility with cutting-edge tech. Today, offerings like the Signature Series headphones and ES amplifiers target discerning listeners seeking refined soundstaging and dynamic range.
Positioned as a mid-to-high-end powerhouse, Sony commands respect among knowledgeable buyers for blending mass-market reliability with premium performance, outpacing many pure audiophile brands in innovation and value. Far from vintage relic or niche boutique, it dominates with forward-thinking engineering, holding strong market share in headphones and streaming ecosystems.
