Offered is „Reference SUB 50 K Weiß“ by Canton as second-hand device from the category „Subwoofer Active“ on audio-markt.de - the online market place for high-end. The advert with the number 6358489972 ends on 26.12.2026 at 10:34 o'clock.
The Reference SUB 50 K is Canton’s serious high-end active subwoofer, and EUR 1,399 is an ambitious asking price against this market. Your 241 comparable listings put the median at EUR 125 and the 75th percentile at EUR 332; even allowing for model mix, this price is far above the normal used bracket. It only makes sense if the listing is unusually complete, pristine, and locally convenient.
The hardware itself is impressive: a 308 mm aluminium-ceramic-tungsten driver, passive radiator, 500-watt nominal output, adjustable crossover from 55–200 Hz, and response down to 18 Hz. It is a substantial, capable sub with useful high-level and line-level inputs, remote control, phase and level adjustment, and a reputation as a proper Reference-series partner rather than a basic bass box. Still, at EUR 1,399, verify flawless operation, remote, feet, grille, and original packaging; otherwise, negotiate firmly toward a much lower figure.
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.
