"a stylish and affordable launch into the world of high-performance audio"

OK, is there such a thing as "too good to be true"?  They're definitely gorgeously beautifully looking and certainly at least as good looking as any "high-end" speakers!  But look at the price!  Only $374.00!!!  Can you have the cake and eat it too!  There has to be a catch!  Is there a devil lurking somewhere here!  I mean a high-end ScanSpeak woofer is already at least $370.00 in cost.  And that does not take into account a tweeter, and xover inductors, capacitors ... and so on.  And what do you tell people who paid $200K for a Wilson?

The larger part of performance improvements possible in generic speakers are brought about via lore and applied lore.

I don’t expect the speaker to sound exceptional I expect it to sound acceptable. Acceptable to the average ear.

Like a klipsch HT speaker, or a Polk HT speaker, or a JBL HT speaker.

All of them being made in china. With budget drivers. Like... drivers that are $10 each.

The economics of speakers has not changed. There are no exceptions. This is just Paradigm breaking down and getting their slice of the best buy slumming money.
