Verkeert in nieuwstaat, retour gekomen van een klant en nu scherp geprijsd! De canton gle 100 s2 is een krachtige vloerstaande luidspreker die zorgt voor een dynamische, heldere en gebalanceerde gelui
What are you paying for here: a clean deal, or just a nice-looking asking price?
At €799, this is clearly ambitious versus your local used benchmark: it sits well above the €661 75th percentile and far beyond the €534 median, so it’s not priced like a typical bargain. Unless there’s something exceptional about condition, provenance, or included extras, I’d treat it as a seller’s price rather than a buy-now value.
That said, the GLE 100 line is usually appealing for buyers who want effortless dynamics, good scale, and a lively, room-filling presentation from a straightforward German floorstander. If this pair is genuinely tidy, original, and fully functional, it can still be worth pursuing—but only after a firm counteroffer, because the upside here is the speaker itself, not the asking price.
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.
