I have a pair of S8 they take a long time to break in easy to drive very open and can play very loud have not used with tubes yet will let you know
Paradigm Reference Signature Series
Has any done any auditioning of these speakers? I listened to the S8 model and was overly impressed by the bass, whew I thought a subwoofer was in play but it wasn't. The only thing that I found was the tweeter seemed a little edgy. Anyone out there experienceing this? The cabinets are probably the most beautiful cabinet I have seen for less than 20000.00 gorgeous finish.
