Where to get good deal on Paradigm speakers

[sparr777]

I am having some trouble finding web sites that offer paradigm speakers. I am choosing between monitor 7's and 11's for my two front speakers and can only find one site that offers them. They are "mint quality" not new and they want $100+ for shipping on the 11's. (hifitrader.com) Does anyone have any suggestions on where to find these new and at a good price? Most of the shopping sites don't have them listed and there is only one store in my area and it seemes extemely overpriced.

Thanks

My understanding is that Paradigm are only avaialble in stores, not over the internet. since the speakers you are talking abou are used, the would amke sense as to why they can be sold online. Personally, I wish I had gotten the Mon 11's...

Paradigm does not allow their dealers to sell over the internet. 10-15% is about all you can expect a Paradigm dealer to reduce their price.

Well, i guess that makes sense why i couldn't find anything.


Thanks

look on audiogon.com for demo or used to save. but i would

look at other speakers. you can do better for the same price.

hometheaterbythesea.com,

sells paradigm online. check their prices, then ask your dealer to come close to it.

If they sell them online, they are not an authorized dealer and that would be extremely rare and almost certainly means you will not have a warranty. Paradigm controls their distributors VERY closely. That would suggest they are buying from another dealer or they are re-importing them from another country, because, as Tex-amp said, Paradigm does not allow online sales.
