Angeboten wird „prodigy5“ von PMC als Ausstellungsstück aus der Kategorie „Standlautsprecher“ bei audio-markt.de - dem Online-Marktplatz für High-End. Das Inserat mit der Nummer 29662200 endet am 05.09.2026 um 11:33 Uhr.
Should you snap up these PMC Prodigy5s at €1,989 per speaker, or is that price too steep for a single unit? At €1,989 each (€3,978 for the pair), this listing is ambitious compared to the typical used market, where a pair of Prodigy5s often trades around €2,400–€2,800 total, and the current new retail in Europe sits near €2,389–€2,509 for the pair. You’re paying nearly double the typical used pair price for just one speaker, which makes this a poor value unless the seller is unaware of market norms or there’s a rare bundle included.
The Prodigy5 is well-regarded for its compact footprint and surprising low-end thrust, delivering 35Hz–25kHz response with a 5.25-inch natural-fiber woofer and 1-inch soft-dome tweeter. Its ATL bass technology gives it scale beyond its size, making it ideal for smaller rooms that still demand authority. However, unless this single speaker is in pristine, original-owner condition with grilles and spikes included—and you’re specifically missing just one leg of a pair—the pricing undermines the upside. At this cost, a used pair is often within reach, making this a hard buy unless condition and context are exceptional.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
PMC, the Professional Monitor Company, was founded in 1991 in the UK by Peter Thomas, a BBC engineer, and Adrian Loader, an acoustics specialist from FWO Bauch. Dissatisfied with existing studio monitors that couldn't balance high-volume pop and rock playback with ultra-high resolution, they developed transmission line technology, debuting the BB5-A active monitor. This breakthrough quickly won over prestigious clients like the BBC's Maida Vale Studios, Metropolis Mastering, and artists including Prince and Stevie Wonder, establishing PMC's heritage in precision audio engineering.
The brand focuses primarily on loudspeakers, renowned for their advanced transmission line designs that deliver uncolored, natural sound across professional and domestic applications. From compact home models like the LB1 to high-end studio references and Dolby Atmos systems, PMC's hand-built UK products dominate mastering houses, broadcasters, and home hi-fi setups. They emphasize matched components, rigorous testing, and cabinet integrity to preserve the artist's intent without compromise.
PMC holds a commanding position in the high-end market, bridging pro audio and discerning home listeners with studio-grade accuracy. As an independent British icon, it monopolizes elite facilities worldwide—from Capitol Studios to Universal Music Group—and earns accolades like membership in Germany's High End Society, appealing to audiophiles who demand reference-level transparency and emotional depth.
