Paradigm Persona 9H demo at Audio Doctor

I have been following the thread about the Paradigm Personas, which has been getting a lot of interest, and considering that I live in Jersey City, I felt that it would be very cool to come over to the Audio Doctor showroom to hear these speakers for myself.

I have been a long time Jersey City resident, and then I remembered meeting the store owner Dave at my building when he was setting up a custom audio/video installation and inviting him in to check out my setup. He barely set foot into my loft when he started identifying and scrutinizing my system with even the most obscure HiFi brands included.. Right on, this guy knows his business!
4 years later!

The shop is housed in a restored Victorian Mansion and after touring the place which took around 30 mins plus, we finally got to sit down and listen to some tunes on Audio Doctor's reference rig which consisted of the T+A electronics made in Germany, with a Light Harmonic DaVinci dac, playing high res files and MQA via a Batis computer.

All I can say is this is a dream shop, I have never seen such a wide range of equipment on display and I have been to many, many, different audio stores both in the United States and in Germany where I am from originally. 

I started the tour in their small starter room, which had a lot of lovely gear, all affordable, Kef Q, and R speakers, Naim, Parasound, streaming products. 

Then I was escorted into the second sound room, which contained Audio Doctor's mid level gear, higher end Naim, Electrocompaniet, Lumin, T+A, Conrad Johnson, Nuprime, all of great more affordable still reference grade kinds of products. I heard the Legacy Focus Signatures and the Nuprime electronics the entire system cost about $10k and was mind blowing for the money.

Then we went into their Movie theater another wow room and then finally Dave played the big room with their best equipment on the Pardigm Persona 9H and all I can say is this system sounds like real music, no doubt about it, 

I have never heard a system that sounds this life like and I heard a $300k Oswald Mills system and there is no contest, Audio Doctor's  big reference rig is truly something special put on a great recordings and sit back and you will hear a completely holographic, totally transparent, sound which sounds true to life and it is musical to boot!

Dave is a gentleman with an incredible knowledge of the industry, and a true passion for great sound.
