| Paradigm Personas: A First Listen We have the KEF Blades on display as well, which use KEF's best drivers, the Blades Uni Q driver features a driver of Aluminium with a low mass stiffening ring, and the Personas are even more transparent. It is not just the stiffness and mass of ... | |
| Paradigm Personas: A First Listen The moving mass of a driver is important, you are missing one of the other major advantages of the material, ie Beryllium is self damping, aluminium is not. The purity of tone is what makes Beryllium so extraordinary.Also Ribbon tweeters have othe... | |
| Paradigm Personas: A First Listen The other thing to note is that many people use Seas or Scan Speak Beryllium tweeters but neither of these companies is making a pure Beryllium midrange driver.Why is Beryllium so superb it is extremely light, it is stiffer than Titanium, it is al... | |

| Paradigm Personas anyone heard them The Legacy speakers are fantastically musical and they represent fantastic value for the money. We have the Persona 3F $10,000.00 and the Legacy Focus Signature, $6,800.00 in the same sound room. The Persona's have a more extended treble, and a m... | |
