Angeboten wird „Madrigal PDT 2 mit Fernbedienung/ Wandler DPD 2 separates Angebot“ von Proceed als Gebrauchtgerät aus der Kategorie „CD Player“ bei audio-markt.de - dem Online-Marktplatz für High-End. Das Inserat mit der Nummer 1364863427 endet am 16.08.2026 um 13:23 Uhr.
€745 is fair-to-strong for a Proceed PDT2 in good condition, not a bargain-basement score but a sensible ask for a desirable high-end transport. Comparable Proceed/Madrigal CD front ends show listings around €700 to €990 for the newer PDT3/PDP3 combo, which puts this single-unit PDT2 in the right neighborhood rather than above market.
What makes it worth a look is the classic Madrigal/Proceed build and the fact that these were prized for their solid transport mechanics and serious digital performance. If it’s genuinely clean, original, and comes with the remote, box, or paperwork, that adds real buyer appeal. I’d still confirm laser/transport health and disc read reliability, since age is the main risk on any older CD player, but at €745 this reads as a respectable enthusiast buy.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
# Proceed
Proceed was established in 1989 by Madrigal Audio Laboratories as a companion brand to the prestigious Mark Levinson line. Founded by Sanford Berlin, who acquired Mark Levinson in 1984, Madrigal created Proceed as a vehicle for introducing cutting-edge high-end audio technologies at a relatively more accessible price point. The brand operated under the Harman International umbrella and was headquartered in Middletown, Connecticut, drawing on decades of expertise in esoteric audio design and engineering.
Proceed built its reputation across multiple product categories, including CD players, digital transports, DACs, surround-sound processors, and power amplifiers. Early Proceed products—such as the PCD CD player, PDT transport, and PDP DAC—featured distinctive upright industrial design and high-quality component selection. The brand later expanded into multichannel amplification and AV processors, including the acclaimed AVP2+6, CVP2, HPA2, and HPA3 models, which became some of the company's most successful offerings.
Positioned firmly in the high-end audio market, Proceed earned respect among serious audiophiles for build quality, sonic performance, and innovative circuit design. The brand was discontinued in 2003, with its best-performing products subsequently rebranded under the Mark Levinson name. Today, Proceed equipment remains sought after in the vintage and used high-end market, valued for its natural, non-fatiguing sound character and robust engineering that has proven durable across decades.
