This is a fair-to-good buy at US$340: it lands right on the US$340 median for 17 recent comparable used listings, so it is not a bargain-bin score, but it is also not stretched relative to the market. The spread matters here too — with a US$169 25th percentile and US$1,000 75th percentile, this asking price sits comfortably in the normal used range rather than pushing into ambitious territory.
What makes it appealing is the format: the hybrid tube design gives you a bit of tube texture with plenty of drive, and the modular preamp/headamp layout keeps it useful in a desktop or system-centered setup. Schiit priced the original unit at US$499 new, so US$340 is a sensible used entry if it’s clean, functions properly, and includes the right module(s) and power supply.
