Dropped the speaker off early last week and they still haven't mailed out a replacement saying the speaker was dropped...dealer will just buy/order another if they don't cover it...but I'm still waiting for the dealer to do this ...ugh.

Meanwhile anthem sent out a new replacement MRX 700 since the new one I bought was actually used with no hassle.

Feels like I'm missing a testicle. Drop 5 grand on something and a month later I only have one speaker and a tainted receiver whose remote decided to stop working. Maybe the exploded batteries in it contributed to this.

EDIT: just got a phone call from paradigm rep apologizing for everything and will get me a replacement...didn't mention when though.

My AVM-2 has been flawless for the last 9 years, but recently I have been looking elsewhere at products such as Emotiva, ATI and Outlaw because of the similar experiance you're going through. I was considering the Studio 100s with 690 center, but now am apprehensive about Paradigm as well. Good luck getting your situation resolved.
