Offered is „XP-EXT 1 Exofield, Mehrkanal Heimkino-Kopfhörersystem“ by JVC as second-hand device from the category „Headphone“ on audio-markt.de - the online market place for high-end. The advert with the number 8766402364 ends on 12.12.2026 at 14:58 o'clock.
This is a niche surround headphone system, and the €550 ask sits well above the recent used market: against a median of €100 and a 75th percentile of €131, it’s clearly ambitious rather than a bargain. At that level, you’d want a near-mint set with all the key extras to justify the premium.
What makes it interesting is the Exofield processing itself: it’s one of the more distinctive ways to get convincing multichannel headphone playback without a full speaker setup, and it has a small but real enthusiast following. If the listing includes the transmitter, calibration gear, cables, and the condition is genuinely excellent, it could still appeal to someone specifically chasing this format — but for most buyers, the value case is much stronger closer to the usual €82–€131 range.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
JVC, originally founded on September 13, 1927, in Yokohama, Japan, as the Victor Talking Machine Company of Japan, emerged as a subsidiary of the American Victor Talking Machine Company. It quickly established itself in phonograph and record production, becoming a leader in turntables within its first few years. After RCA acquired the parent company in 1929, JVC expanded into radios and introduced Japan's first domestically produced television in 1939, laying the foundation for its enduring legacy in consumer electronics.
The brand's product focus has historically centered on audio and video playback devices, starting with phonographs and evolving through radios, televisions, and the revolutionary VHS videocassette recorder launched in 1976, which became the global standard over Sony's Betamax. In hi-fi realms, JVC gained renown for amplifiers, speakers, turntables, and components like tuners, while later offerings included headphones and car audio systems. Following its 2008 merger with Kenwood to form JVCKenwood, it continued blending audio expertise with broader electronics.
Today, JVC occupies a solid mid-tier position in the hi-fi market, prized by enthusiasts for reliable, value-driven performance rather than ultra-high-end exclusivity. Its vintage gear, particularly from the wood-case amplifier era and early digital components, attracts collectors, while modern lines deliver competent sound without boutique pricing. This accessible heritage makes JVC a dependable choice for knowledgeable buyers seeking proven Japanese engineering.
