Angeboten wird „Jay’s Audio Cd2 mk3“ von Jay`s Audio als Gebrauchtgerät aus der Kategorie „CD Geräte“ bei audio-markt.de - dem Online-Marktplatz für High-End. Das Inserat mit der Nummer 1429641660 endet am 02.08.2026 um 10:01 Uhr.
At €1,870, this Jay’s Audio CD2 Mk3 (likely the CDT2-MK3 transport) sits just above the median of €1,815 from six recent EUR listings, making it a fair price rather than a bargain or overreach. It’s comfortably below the 75th percentile of €2,345 and only €265 above the 25th percentile of €1,605, so it reflects typical used market value for this well-regarded transport. Original retail was around £2,398 (roughly €2,750 at the time), so even at fair used pricing, you’re getting solid value.
The CDT2-MK3 is beloved for its Philips CDM4/19 mechanism, hand-tweaked mechanics, and exceptional price-to-performance ratio, often compared favorably to boxes costing four to five times more. This listing includes a Headquarters Audio QStab clamp—a €400+ upgrade over the stock version—adding meaningful upside. With “EUR” condition noted and no red flags, this is a clean buying opportunity for a top-loading transport that delivers audiophile-grade performance without the flagship price.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Jay's Audio emerged from the passion of founder Jay Ho, a Chinese audio enthusiast whose journey began around 20 years ago with hands-on experimentation across hundreds of power amplifiers. Relocating his operations to the United States—first Georgia, now Texas—Ho established the brand to deliver meticulously engineered digital sources, drawing on decades of trial-and-error refinement. His early focus on Philips CDPro2 LF and CDM4 mechanisms laid the foundation for a lineup prioritizing sonic purity over mass production.
The brand specializes in high-performance CD transports and DACs, such as the acclaimed CDT3-Mk3 and DAC2-Mk3 models, designed explicitly for critical audiophiles seeking Redbook CD playback excellence. While Ho's personal audio lab showcases partnerships with elite brands like Audio Group Denmark and interest in icons such as McIntosh, Jay's Audio remains narrowly focused on transport and digital conversion hardware, eschewing speakers, amplifiers, or headphones to master this niche.
Positioned as a boutique high-end contender, Jay's Audio earns praise in enthusiast circles for its no-compromise builds and transparent soundstaging, as highlighted in reviews from outlets like 6moons. With dedicated reference rooms in Texas featuring military-grade acoustics and power infrastructure, it appeals to discerning buyers chasing ultimate digital retrieval, bridging Chinese precision with American audiophile ambition in a competitive market.
