I own Bliss Hifi, a high-end audio boutique, and these Vimberg Mino D loudspeakers are in on trade. They are in a premium piano white finish ($1K option) with the upgraded and more highly resolving and enjoyable Accuton Diamond Tweeters, which are a $13K option.  They are a one-owner unit, purchased directly from The Voice That Is in 2020, kept in a smoke-free home, and are in immaculate condition functionally and cosmetically. These rarely, if ever, come up on the used market in the US, and never in this configuration and finish.

The speakers are 159lbs each, and they ship with heavy duty flight cases (79lb each), and come with a manual and all stock accessories. I can arrange for fully insured freight delivery on a pallet anywhere in the CONUS at cost, which is estimated to be anywhere from $600-1,300.

For some reason, the ad isn’t updating to show payment methods. I can accept credit card payments through my QuickBooks invoicing system or PayPal Goods and Services with a 3.1% convenience fee. I would prefer fee-free payments, which include ACH over QuickBooks Invoicing, PayPal F&F, cashier’s check, and personal check (has to clear prior to shipping).

Please see my stellar feedback here and on other marketplaces and buy with confidence. Lowball offers will be ignored.

Happy to answer any questions, and thank you for your consideration.

More about the Mino D:

The Vimberg Mino D are born from Jörn Janczak’s vision at Tidal Audio to create speakers that would preserve Tidal’s renowned sound quality while being much more accessible than their flagship models. What makes this achievement particularly remarkable is that Vimberg loudspeakers are designed and built at the same facility as Tidal Audio speakers in Germany, with each Vimberg possessing the same undeniable heritage and DNA. Vimberg speakers are designed and engineered by the very same people who create the Tidal Audio range of products; they aren’t outsourced to be manufactured for less money. Everything is designed and built in the Tidal Audio factory in Germany with the same level of care, love and attention.

The Mino D, now at $57,000 / pair, represents remarkable value when compared to its spiritual sibling, the Tidal Akira at $240,000 per pair, making the Vimberg one-fourth the price while delivering remarkably similar sonic characteristics.

The driver complement represents a carefully orchestrated symphony of premium components. Three 168mm Accuton Cell woofers feature long excursion design with 3D-shaped honeycomb sandwich aluminum diaphragms, working within a perfectly calculated internal volume to reproduce extremely fast and deep bass. Above them sits a 90mm Accuton ceramic midrange woofer that has been integrated without any resonances and blends seamlessly with both the tweeters and woofers.

The Mino D features anupgrade to the 30mm pure diamond tweeter option, which adds $13,500 per pair but delivers what many consider reference-level high-frequency performance.

The crossover design exemplifies Vimberg’s no-compromise approach. The crossover is second to none in design and effort, using not only exceptional parts and execution quality from Mundorf and Duelund, but more importantly featuring topology designed specifically for these drivers in this exact construction. This results in superb off-axis performance, ultra-linear frequency response, and incredible timing, with drivers perfectly blended together without any residual resonance.

The Mino D’s sonic signature embodies what many consider the pinnacle of natural reproduction and has garnered extraordinary praise from the most respected voices in high-end audio.

John Atkinson of Stereophile, one of the industry’s most measured reviewers, stated: “I was impressed by the Vimberg Mino. In my room and with my ancillary gear, it produced a full-range, neutrally balanced, transparent sound that rivaled what I remember experiencing with the seven-times-the-price Tidal Akira.” This comparison to the Tidal Akira underscores the remarkable value proposition the Mino represents.

The enthusiasm extends beyond individual reviewers to industry consensus. Audio-Head proclaimed the “VIMBERG Mino loudspeakers as possibly the greatest bargain in hi-fi” before clarifying that “they are the greatest bargain in Ultra-High-End audio.”

Hi-Fi World perhaps captured the essence of Vimberg’s achievement best by observing: “This isn’t Tidal-lite: instead it’s Tidal DNA applied just as meticulously to a more affordable set of parts – with spectacularly successful musical results.”
