Verkeert in nieuwstaat, retour gekomen van een klant en nu scherp geprijsd! De canton plus xl.3 Luidsprekers zijn compacte en krachtige speakers die zorgen voor een verrassend vol en helder geluid. Id
This is a fair-to-ambitious ask for a used subwoofer, not a bargain. With five recent comparables at a €51 median, €50 at the 25th percentile, and €152 at the 75th, a price of €189 sits above the typical upper range and needs a stronger-than-average example to justify it.
If it’s a clean, working unit with no driver or amp issues, the upside is that Canton’s Plus-series subs are generally compact, musical, and easy to integrate for modest room support. The real buy case here is condition: if it’s original, well-kept, and fully functional, that matters more than age on a sub like this. At €189, I’d want confirmation on driver health, amplifier output, and any hum or auto-on quirks before calling it a good deal.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Canton traces its roots to 1972, when four hi-fi enthusiasts—Hubert Milbers, Otfried Sandig, Wolfgang Seitkritt, and Günther Seitz—founded the company in the small German town of Weilrod, near Frankfurt. Registering the name as a blend of the Latin "cantare" (to sing) and German "Ton" (musical tone), they began operations in a repurposed village schoolhouse with 35 employees assembling speaker enclosures. Still family-owned and led by descendants like Günther Seitz, Canton embodies enduring German engineering precision, manufacturing primarily in Niederlauken and Weilrod.
The brand focuses squarely on loudspeakers, offering over 300 models across 12 series tailored to diverse budgets, room sizes, and applications—from compact bookshelf designs and the pioneering 1979 sub/sat system to high-end Reference lines and wireless innovations. While speakers dominate, Canton also produces complementary hi-fi components, blending traditional cabinetry with digital amplification advancements, all subjected to rigorous quality controls.
Positioned as a mid-to-high-end mainstay in the global hi-fi market, Canton commands respect for its "pure music" philosophy, exporting to 53 countries with a reputation for reliable, elegant performance that appeals to discerning buyers seeking value without compromise. Independent of corporate conglomerates, it remains a smart, appreciating investment for audiophiles valuing Made-in-Germany craftsmanship.
