Paradigm speakers

Hi, I been seeing that there is not alot of talk about Paradigm speakers. It it because of built quality or price point ratio? Thanks

Just inserted a DEQX PreMate into my system. I'd say the combo has squeezed the last bit of hi-end juice out of my S8s. Read my comments on the "Sloped Baffle" and "DEQX Game Changer" threads. While there are many, many facets that make for a good speaker, one indispensable element is driver quality. IMO, I think Paradigm does an excellent job in that department, particularly in its Signature line. So ... combine the DEQX time coherence and EQ functionality with Paradigm's excellent quality drivers ... you've got a match made in heaven.

When the DEQX guys were measuring my system, they plotted the frequency response of the drivers. The room wreaked havoc on the mid and low frequencies. That's where the DEQX helped. But the beryllium tweeters were unbelievable. Their resonance frequency was close to 40,000 Hz. And the tweets were flat out to 20,000 Hz and started to gently roll off at around 30,000 Hz.
