Te koop: set paradigm founder 100f (kleur kers) schitterende luidsprekers, zowel in klank als in verschijning. De echte kleur komt niet goed door op de fotos, echt prachtig. Ook de afwerking is ongezi
This is fairly priced, sitting just under the median of the recent comps and a touch below the top of the pack at €4,294, so I’d read €4,250 as a normal-market ask rather than a bargain or a stretch. It’s close enough to the center that you’re paying roughly what the market has been clearing around, with only a small cushion versus the 75th percentile.
That still makes it a worthwhile buy if the speakers are clean and complete, because the Founder 100F is well regarded for a big, controlled sound with solid bass reach, smooth highs, and the kind of scale that suits serious two-channel systems without needing a sub right away. At this level, the upside is mainly condition and provenance: original packaging, grilles, and a careful home are all worth more than a cosmetic ding.
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.
