This €55 parts-only listing is an undeniable bargain, sitting far below the 25th percentile of €101 and the median of €146 for working Onkyo A-8500 units in EUR. Even the external asking price of €222 for a functional Integra model confirms the market values these amplifiers well above €100, making this a rare opportunity to acquire a classic for under half the lowest typical asking price.
The A-8500 remains a respected Integra-series integrated amplifier known for its robust build, warm midrange, and versatile MM/MC phono stage, offering genuine sonic value for DIYers or parts salvagers. At this price, the only caveat is the “for parts” condition, but that limitation is precisely what drives the value; if you can repair it or need the chassis, the upside is massive with minimal financial risk.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Onkyo traces its roots to postwar Japan, founded in 1946 in Osaka by Takeshi Goda, an engineer at Matsushita Electric who envisioned high-quality Japanese loudspeakers. Initially established as Osaka Denki Onkyo K.K., the company began production in 1948 with the acclaimed ED-100 speaker featuring a 25 cm driver, quickly building a reputation through LP concerts and innovative designs that resonated with audiophiles.
The brand excels in premium home audio, renowned for AV receivers, hi-fi amplifiers, and surround sound speakers that deliver exceptional clarity and power. Its portfolio spans turntables, DACs, headphones, and cables, bolstered by acquisitions like Pioneer's home electronics division in 2015, enabling cutting-edge integrations such as internet radio and high-resolution streaming.
Onkyo holds a solid mid-tier position in the hi-fi market, prized by discerning buyers for reliable performance and value rather than ultra-high-end exotica. Despite bankruptcy challenges in the late 2010s, its revival under new ownership preserves a legacy of technological innovation and pure sound enjoyment, appealing to both vintage enthusiasts and modern home cinema setups.
