Compared with buying a new Pro-Ject Tube Box S2 or even stepping up to a fresh budget phono stage, £261 is a pretty decent used ask rather than a steal. New UK pricing for this model has sat around £299–£329, so this listing lands close enough to fair market that I’d treat it as reasonable if the unit is clean and fully working.
It’s a worthwhile buy because the Tube Box S2 is well liked for giving vinyl playback a bit more body, space and texture than many solid-state stages at the same money, while still handling both MM and MC cartridges. The main upside here is value: if it’s an original-owner piece with the power supply and no hum or tube-noise issues, you’re getting a respected, flexible phono stage without paying full retail.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Pro-Ject Audio Systems traces its roots to 1991 in Austria's Weinviertel region, north of Vienna, where founder Heinz Lichtenegger launched the brand amid the CD revolution. Kicked out of music school as a youth, Lichtenegger channeled his passion for analog sound into affordable, high-quality turntables at a time when vinyl seemed obsolete. His debut Pro-Ject 1, hand-assembled in the Czech Republic, earned rave reviews as a top high-end device, igniting a success story that relocated headquarters to Vienna before returning to Mistelbach in Lower Austria.
The brand excels in turntables, establishing itself as the world's largest and leading producer in that category, while expanding into a full spectrum of hi-fi components since 2000. Offerings include amplifiers, DACs, headphone amps, speakers, cables, and phono stages, all emphasizing essential sound reproduction with durable materials and minimalist design. Manufacturing remains European—primarily in Czechia, Slovakia, and Germany—prioritizing sustainability through local sourcing, short transport, and products built for longevity.
Pro-Ject holds a commanding niche as the go-to for mid-tier audiophiles seeking boutique European craftsmanship without extravagant pricing. Distributed in over 80 countries, it appeals to vinyl revivalists and discerning buyers who value analog purity, innovation, and value-driven performance over flashy excess, cementing its reputation as a pioneer in accessible high-fidelity.
