Paradigm Persona: what do you think?


I listened to the bookshelf model and the floor standing next in line after the bookshelf. 
I must say they are some sweet sounding speakers. Very musical with gobs of bass in the bookshelf ones. 

The floor standing ones are sealed but I believe using a passive radiator. 
Very interested!

"I own 9hs, the persona center, 4 Bs for surround, with BHK monoblocks, BHK Preamp. I love the speakers but there is no low end, so I got a couple JL 113v2 subs now everything sound really good. I would never buy these speakers without the subs, the powered subs in the 9hs are useless. Buy the 7s and a couple subs and save 10k. Best mid and high end ever but very poor bass."

I've been waiting for this and knew it wouldn't take long on this site.  This is the new high water mark of hilariousness on this forum.

If you think the bass on ANY persona speaker is "bad," let alone the 9H, I can't help but laugh out loud.  You quite simply do not know how to position speakers in a room, or you have the mind set of getting car audio bass out of your system (aka have never learned what bass should actually sound like).

You should learn the basics of speaker setup/positioning/acoustics etc.

Or..... your Personas are broken.  Maybe you should reach out to your dealer so they can come and hold your hand.
