We Are a Professional Team You Can Trust
At Code 9 AV Studio, we’re not just sellers — we’re passionate vintage audio lovers, engineers, and curators of timeless sound.
Originally founded in India by a team of analog enthusiasts, we’ve grown to become one of the most trusted second-hand hi-fi retailers, with customers from all over the world — including a strong presence in the UK.
What makes us different? We don’t just sell equipment — we create nostalgic, high-quality musical experiences. We’re always on the lookout for authentic vintage hi-fi gear from the golden eras of analog sound — especially from the 1970s, 1980s, and early 1990s. Our specialty includes:
Reel-to-reel tape recorders Cassette decks
Turntables Speakers Amplifiers Receivers
We are not interested in modern mass-market brands, home theater systems, or Bang & Olufsen products — our focus is strictly on classic analog gear that stands the test of time.
