Angeboten wird „Monitor SE 8000F“ von Paradigm speakers als Ausstellungsstück aus der Kategorie „Standlautsprecher“ bei audio-markt.de - dem Online-Marktplatz für High-End. Das Inserat mit der Nummer 7630580095 endet am 29.07.2026 um 06:03 Uhr.
At €1,190, this sits well below the €3,951 25th percentile and far under the €7,409 median of recent comparable EUR listings, so it reads as a strong deal rather than merely fair. Even with the upper quartile at €21,144, the asking price is low enough that a clean, working pair deserves serious attention.
That makes sense for a Monitor SE-series floorstander: Paradigm’s SE line is generally respected for lively, balanced sound, good dynamics, and easy placement compared with fussier towers. In good condition, the upside is straightforward—if the drivers are original, cabinets are tidy, and there’s no foam, crossover, or terminal issue, this is the kind of listing that should move quickly.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Paradigm Electronics was founded in 1982 in the suburbs of Toronto, Canada, by Scott Bagby, a pioneering loudspeaker designer, and Jerry VanderMarel, a consumer electronics veteran. With input from Jerry's brother Bill, they revolutionized speaker design by integrating scientific acoustics research from the National Research Council of Canada and rigorous listening tests. From humble beginnings, Paradigm rapidly expanded, opening its Paradigm Advanced Research Center in 1993 and earning early accolades like the 1990 Best Price/Value Award, cementing its innovative heritage.
The brand focuses primarily on high-performance loudspeakers, including iconic models like the Atom and Monitor series, alongside premium lines such as Signature. Paradigm controls its entire production process in a massive 225,000-square-foot facility outside Toronto, manufacturing drivers, cabinets, and components in-house for unmatched precision. While best known for freestanding and architectural speakers, it has ventured into electronics through sister brands like Anthem, emphasizing value-driven hi-fi without straying into turntables, DACs, headphones, or cables.
Paradigm holds a strong mid-to-high-end position in the global market, renowned for delivering audiophile-grade sound at accessible prices. A bestseller across six continents, it commands significant shares in freestanding (No. 6) and architectural speakers among top integrators. Repurchased by founder Scott Bagby in 2019, Paradigm upholds its commitment to the "Paradigm Sound"—transparent, dynamic audio that punches above its weight, appealing to discerning buyers seeking Canadian craftsmanship over boutique exclusivity.
