The timing is fine: this is an established Verity Audio floorstander rather than a model at the mercy of a fast-changing replacement cycle, so the main question is price. At €7,990, it lands just under the €8,007 median and a touch below the €7,922 25th percentile/median band, so this reads as a solid buy, not an ambitious ask.
What makes it worthwhile is Verity’s usual strength: refined, spacious imaging, a very natural midrange, and the sort of easy, non-fatiguing presentation that rewards serious front-end gear. In good used condition, that combination is attractive because these speakers tend to age into a mature value play rather than a disposable one. If the listing includes the original packaging, spikes, or stands/accessories, that’s meaningful upside; otherwise, the price is still fair enough to move on quickly if you’ve been waiting for a pair.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Verity Audio, a boutique high-end audio brand from Quebec City, Canada, was founded in 1995 by Julien Pelchat and Bruno Bouchard, who met while working at Oracle Audio. The duo launched their debut product, the Parsifal loudspeaker, in 1996, establishing a philosophy centered on eliminating listening fatigue through innovative design that prioritized musical engagement over analytical harshness. Nearly three decades of refinement followed, with the Parsifal evolving through multiple iterations while upholding the company's core tenets of smooth treble, transparent midrange, and authoritative bass.
The brand focused exclusively on loudspeakers, crafting floorstanding and monitor models like the Otello and later Parsifal variants, all hand-built in small batches by a team of just five to eight employees. Verity eschewed diversification into amplifiers, DACs, turntables, or cables, instead channeling expertise into drivers, enclosures, and crossover networks that delivered non-fatiguing, emotionally involving sound reproduction.
Positioned firmly in the high-end niche, Verity Audio earned acclaim among audiophiles for speakers that balanced detail with musicality, challenging industry norms without chasing trends. As a small, passionate operation, it cultivated a cult following before quietly ceasing operations around 2020, leaving a legacy of coveted, fatigue-free listening that endures among collectors and enthusiasts.
