I think I sold them for $400 - $500 for all. Buyer was happy and I was too. I even threw in stands for the 3se's and some speaker cables that I didn't need. After all those years they sounded as good as the day I purchased them. I would recomend them for longevity. My son kept the sub.

Don't know if I answered your question but they were a great value.
Paradigms with "se" following the model number were part of what used to be called the Performance Series, not Studio. I owned several, and still have a pair of 7se Mk II (though not currently in use). I don't think Paradigm has that kind of high-value line anymore. Stereophile gave the budget 5se very good marks back then; I also had a pair of 3se, which still are the main speakers for a buddy's system, and he still loves 'em.
