Blown away with 2 speakers hifi sound!

   I upgraded my CD player and the sound I am getting from Paradigm Studio 20 speakers is truly amazing! The sound is liquid and transparent magic...I never heard them sound so good. In fact, I find myself not listening to music but to the sound of speakers, if you know what I mean. Audiophiles should be able to relate to this...

   I am starting to believe the company's bold statement about Paradigm shift speakers with in the price range - haha

   Another speaker I am in love with is Martin Logan Motion 35XT with exotic tweeter that has pleasant transparent magic...The sound is as a whole is also liquid so Hifi-ish. Try to hear them and most likely you too will agree that they are so good that you keep hearing speakers rather than concentrating on music, and they are way below $1000! I think they are a bargain in Hifi world these days.

   I hope readers of Audiogon will agree with my take on the 2 speakers and enjoy good quality for a few hundred $.

Happy listening...

Select-hifi - I concur that the post wasn't presented in a tactful way, nor helpful, in that, an explanation wasn't provided. 

I believe what was meant by "you are doing it wrong", was in response to the original post where gongli3 stated "I find myself not listening to music but to the sound of speakers, if you know what I mean". 

As others have stated, gongli3 is experiencing something new from his speakers, which he hasn't experienced previously.  However, the pursuit of HiFi is, in fact, to let the music shine through, and the equipment (including the speakers) disappear.

Enjoy my friend. I too listen to my speakers. I prefer to build my own. I critique them, then change what I don’t like. When I finally get them where they sound smooth, airy in the vocals, cymbals present without stress, kick and toms are in the room when they should be, and bass where I can here the strings but not the cabinet... Then I enjoy the music. I’m far from an equipment snob.

There is no need to spend tens of thousands to get good sound. For those who can afford it, bon appetit.

Obviously, you like music (as I do). That’s why we have these magnificent systems.
Discovering how we can make music sound better to us is part of this wonderful hobby. Changing stereo components and observing the differences is always an exciting event which can last days, weeks, ...
Enjoy every minute!
