Paradigm Studio 20 V3 Tweeter Swap


Hey  guys, has any one tried switching out the stock S-Pal tweeter in Studio 20 V3 with an Signature G-Pal? if so, was there a discernable difference in the brightness? Speakers are tube driven with LP and (now) streaming (thanks to finally getting internet and Bluesound Node) the main listening venues.

That seems to be more beryllium oriented and was hoping for someone with actual S-PAL for G-PAL switch. I know it's not a huge change, but a little less bright would be good for higher volume.

Just buy new speakers. Those Studio 20s don’t owe you anything at this point, and there are a ton of much better monitors out there today at very affordable prices. Plus, there’s a very good chance the new tweeter doesn’t work well in your speaker with its crossover that wasn’t designed for that tweeter to work optimally. Sell them so someone else can enjoy them and put the proceeds toward better speakers — that’s what I’d do anyway. Best of luck.

Love the speakers, just a little bright at higher volume. Tube amp has no tone controls? What's a speaker you guys could suggest with similar sound but a warmer tweeter. And I'm in an area with practically zero ability to demo, so I only have past experience and interwebs reviews......

What’s your budget, and are you open to buying used?  Also, what’s in the rest of your system including cables?
