Our Thoughts RADAR AI

The timing is fine here: this is a current-gen powered mini-monitor, not an obsolete curiosity, so the main question is value. At €169, it looks like a strong buy versus typical used pricing, which commonly lands around €300–€400 a pair in the EU market, with new pricing around €399–€500 depending on source and finish.

That’s a good price for a compact speaker with real versatility: built-in amplification, Bluetooth, USB, optical, and phono input, plus the kind of balanced, lively PSB voicing that makes them easy to live with on a desk or near a wall. If the set is complete and fully working, this is the sort of listing that merits quick attention rather than overthinking. Only ask for proof of functionality and accessories if anything is missing, because the electronics matter more here than with a passive bookshelf.

Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.

About PSB Speakers

PSB Speakers traces its roots to 1972 in St. Jacobs, Ontario, Canada, where classically trained violinist and self-taught acoustics engineer Paul Barton launched the company with two school friends, pooling savings for a modest factory. Named after Paul and his high-school sweetheart Sue Barton—who later became his wife—the brand embodied Barton's early passion for hi-fi, honed through part-time work building speaker kits at a local shop and studies at the University of Waterloo. A pivotal collaboration with National Research Council psychoacoustician Dr. Floyd Toole in 1974 established PSB's rigorous testing in anechoic chambers and double-blind listening rooms, shaping its signature "Canadian Sound" of truthful, natural reproduction.

The company focuses squarely on loudspeakers, spanning entry-level Alpha models to high-end Platinum series, alongside home theater systems, in-ceiling CustomSound options, and expansions into headphones, portable Bluetooth speakers, and subwoofers. Acquired by the Lenbrook Group in 1985—which also owns NAD Electronics—PSB gained global distribution, now reaching over 70 countries while maintaining Barton as chief designer. This heritage of psychoacoustics research ensures products prioritize flat frequency response and musical accuracy over hype.

PSB holds a strong mid-to-high-end position among discerning audiophiles, revered for value-driven performance that rivals pricier rivals without gimmicks. Its scientific foundation and "true-to-nature" ethos earn consistent praise, cementing a reputation as a Canadian benchmark in a crowded market, distributed through premium dealers worldwide.
