Nach vielen Jahren sauberen Heimkinos habe ich mich für etwas dezentere Lautsprecher entschieden und kann daher meine bisherigen abgeben.
Die Qualität von CANTON-Boxen war seinerzeit noch hervorragend, nicht umsonst wird der grandiose Center AV700 noch häufig gesucht.
Die Lautsprecher haben bis zuletzt hervorragende Arbeit geleitet und freuen sich jetzt auf einen neuen Besitzer.
Aufgrund des Alters der Lautsprecher sind natürlich Gebrauchsspuren zu sehen, die den Bildern entnommen werden können.
Da ich nicht über einen geeigneten Karton verfüge (und die Boxen wirklich schwer sind), kann ich leider nur Abholung anbieten.
Is this €250 Canton Plus C subwoofer a genuine bargain or an overpriced risk? Based strictly on your database of five recent EUR listings, the median asking price is €91, with the 75th percentile at €154; this €250 listing sits well above the top quartile, making it ambitiously priced rather than fair or a strong deal. Even treating the €154 upper bound as a generous ceiling, the asking price exceeds it by roughly 62%, so you should only proceed if the condition is pristine, original-owner, and includes rare accessories that justify the premium.
The Canton Plus C is well-regarded for its tight bass integration and compact design, often praised for adding punch to small to mid-sized systems without boominess. However, at this price point, the lack of a clear price advantage removes the usual “buy now” urgency; you’d need confirmation of flawless electronics, intact rubber feet, and original cables to consider it a worthwhile buy. If the seller can’t prove exceptional condition or extras, this is likely a case where waiting for a listing near the €91–€154 range is the smarter move.
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.
