Cheap Canadians

Where are you finding such good deals on Paradigms? Are these current products? Paradigms are good deals even at retail, so if you can get them at half off it's definitely a great deal. Paradigm has recently upgraded their Monitor series line. Maybe the good deals are on the discontinued version 1 series? Let me know where you've seen such good deals in the states. I live near the Canadien border and often hear about people buying there just to take advantage of the exchange rates.

Not necessarily stupid. But if you like 'em, buy. I bought the PSB silver's, half off. Overall a very nice speaker. I want something bigger and better one day, but for now they are doin a super nioe job. Excellent value, easy to drive. Will compete favorably against lots, and more expensive too (even at full retail). Easy to recommend, especially for the $ I think you can get for $1100 on line now, new, not even blemishes, right? Not a thing wrong with any of that.

I just wanted to echo your observation, I too have seen a lot of those speakers (paradigm and psb) for sale here, on ebay, and on various web sites in the past 3 months. I have also seen sonic frontiers (another canadian compnay) products offered at substantial savings. I would speculate that that there may be a lot of these in the market, driving the prices down, which happens from time-to-time in the biz....but I am just guessing. I don't think there is anything wrong with the speakers, so go for it if you like the sound.
