No, these aren’t Paragons. Something else. Hoping that someone knew.
As I recall, Paragons had horns that showed on the outside front of the cabinet. These, I think, have internal bass horns.

Except for those top stains - which aren't really that bad - that's a beautiful specimen.

If the pictured Altec amplifier and McIntosh tuner are included, that would be a good deal.
Auction closed with no bids, it may reappear. $5000 opening bid on the original listing- the owner sure had high hopes, probably justified. Paragon prototype? I searched around a bit, this configuration doesn’t show anywhere. Milledgeville isn’t far from me (but five grand is...).

The listing didn’t state whether the amp & tuner are included...

Meanwhile in stately Wayne manor, another dude is hawking plans for DIY Paragons:

Sounds like your coming down with a case of MONO Mark. Ok with me if you raise the T-shirt price a bit.
