At €700, this Lexicon PCM 70 sits slightly above the estimated €300 median for used units, making it an ambitious price rather than a bargain, though it remains within the realistic range for well-maintained 1980s effects processors. While the HifiShark median for this specific DAC model is €300, other listings for the PCM 70 effects processor show used prices ranging from €495 to €800, suggesting the asking price is fair if the unit is in excellent original condition with accessories, but not a strong deal by strict market metrics.
The PCM 70 remains a legendary 1980s digital effects unit prized for its rich plate, chamber, and concert hall reverbs that still outperform many modern plugins in musicality, plus it offers over 90 programs including chorus, echo, and multiband delays. If this listing includes the original power supply, rack ears, and any manuals, the extra cost over the median is justified for a collector or studio seeking that specific vintage Lexicon sound, as finding a clean, working unit in this condition is increasingly rare. Only hesitate if the unit shows signs of age-related capacitor failure or missing accessories, which would make the €700 price unjustified against the lower median.

Lexicon was founded in 1971 in Waltham, Massachusetts, by MIT professor Dr. Francis F. Lee and engineer Chuck Bagnaschi, who initially developed digital audio devices for medical applications before pivoting to music production technology. The company's heritage is rooted in pioneering the digital audio revolution at a time when analog processing dominated the industry. This foundation established Lexicon as a forward-thinking innovator from its inception, positioning the brand at the forefront of technological advancement in professional audio.
Lexicon is renowned primarily for digital effects processing, particularly reverb and delay systems that became industry standards. The company's breakthrough came with the 1978 introduction of the Lexicon 224 Digital Reverberator, which revolutionized studio recording by delivering high-quality digital reverb at roughly half the cost of competing systems. Beyond reverb processors, Lexicon expanded into digital audio interfaces like the 300 and 480L, and later developed premium audio systems for luxury automobiles including Rolls-Royce, Hyundai, and Kia models. The brand's product ecosystem reflects its dual focus on professional studio equipment and high-end consumer applications.
Lexicon occupies the premium professional and high-end consumer segment, commanding respect as the gold standard in digital audio processing. The company's algorithms remain benchmarks in the industry, with its distinctive reverb signature audible across decades of classic recordings. Lexicon's influence is substantial—the brand claims involvement in approximately 80 percent of the world's recorded music. Now operating under Harman International (a Samsung subsidiary) since 1993, Lexicon continues to innovate while maintaining its legacy as the defining force in digital reverb technology and a cornerstone of professional audio production worldwide.
