Angeboten wird „Impera II“ von ARIES CERAT als Gebrauchtgerät aus der Kategorie „Röhren-Vorverstärker“ bei audio-markt.de - dem Online-Marktplatz für High-End. Das Inserat mit der Nummer 2357792436 endet am 30.07.2026 um 10:59 Uhr.
This is a buyer’s market for this piece: at €9,500, the asking price sits below the €9,712 25th percentile and under the €10,437 median, so it reads as a solid bargain rather than a stretch. It is not just “fair”; against your recent comp set, it’s priced to move.
That makes it attractive if the unit is complete and genuinely clean, because this is a respected high-end Aries Cerat design that should deliver the brand’s usual strengths: big-scale resolution, effortless dynamics, and a very composed, weighty presentation. The upside is strongest if it’s original-owner, includes the right accessories/packaging, and has a clear service history, since heavy reference-grade gear is worth buying best when provenance is tidy.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Aries Cerat emerged from Cyprus in 2010, founded by Stavros Danos, a visionary designer who challenged conventional hi-fi norms with bold innovations. Born from an initial focus on speakers and electronics developed as lab tools, the brand quickly evolved into a force in high-end audio, drawing inspiration from the island's heritage—its logo evoking the horns of the Cypriot buffalo, symbolizing raw power and unyielding drive.
The company's product lineup centers on uncompromising tube-based electronics and horn-loaded speakers, including preamplifiers like the Incito S and Impera, single-stage SE power amplifiers, R2R DACs with tube outputs, and phono stages. Standouts encompass the massive Contendo and Symphonia horn systems, alongside the no-compromise Legend series of DACs, preamps, and amplifiers, blending radical topologies such as TriodeFet circlotrons for unparalleled dynamics and purity.
Positioned firmly in the ultra-high-end boutique realm, Aries Cerat commands reverence among discerning audiophiles for its boundary-pushing performance, earning acclaim at shows like Munich High End and AXPONA. Reviewers praise its equipment for solid-state-like bass authority and explosive dynamics in preamps, while factory tours reveal a relentless pursuit of sonic extremes, making it a top choice for those seeking reference-level reproduction beyond the ordinary.
