I have two mint condition Paradigm Studio 20 version 5 speakers and their dedicated Speaker Stands for sale. The Speakers have seen 50 hours or so in my estimate of music. Never driven for theatre sound. The stands are the matching Paradigm J series for the Studio 20. The speakers are...

 Hi All,   I am in the process of building a home with a dedicated home theatre. I have been searching through the AVS forum for HT recommendations.   I have narrowed down my list to the following systems:   2 x Paradigm Studio 60 2 x Paradigm Studio 20 1 x Paradigm Studio CC-690 1 x...

Got a new pair of paradigm studio 60's and i found that a cap on one of the speaker's posts is removed, exposing the metal jack underneath. Don't know why the cap is off, i just unboxed it, could be due to faulty transportation. The rest of the speaker is okay, the metal jack that got exposed...

I currently have the Studio's but have come across used Ascends on my local craigslist. I don't think I will have a chance to demo them first. Would it be an upgrade or downgrade to go to the Ascend?

Hey guys, My wife and I are building a house and I am trying to plan the sound system for the living room. It needs to be minimal in nature for purposes of decorating, so I am keeping it to a stereo setup. I wanted to just go with in-wall Polk 265-LS's (I have Onix Reference 1's and I like...

 Hi all,   I have just started putting together a system, most of it is junk (free or near free from craigslist) and I wanted to upgrade speakers first.  Currently using some junk technic vintage speakers that I found on the side of the road.  A local shop has some monitor audio rs8's for...

I now have an unexpected dilemma! To make a long story short, my woofer blew in my Original Version Studio 20 in my music room. So my immediate plan was to use this very convienient reason to buy the newer Paradigm Studio 20 v.5's. So I started lookin at them online and reading tons of...

"Once more unto the breach" About a year ago, we decided to sell our house and build a smaller home with a more efficient use of space. That meant saying goodbye to the Lewis Family Cinema, our first dedicated home theater. I started planning v2.0 while we were still contemplating whether or not...

Someone is selling them for $650 a pair and they are in very good condition? Are they worth it? Or should I consider I pair of the Monitor 11? I cant afford a pair a new set of Studios......How compare to a pair of POLK RTa9 or a pair of B W 684? What center would you pair it with? Thank you...

 I'm currently running a pair of Paradigm Atom bookshelves off of a Marantz NR1402 AVR.  The setup works, but it is obviously anemic on the low end.  When I bought them I thought I'd eventually end up with a sub to fix that.  I was wrong.  I don't have a great place to stick one, and given the...

Hi Everyone, It's been a long time since I've been on AVS Forum. Here we go. I'm starting construction on my new home within 90 days. I'll have a budget of around $8,000 to spend on a system. I'll need 2 floor speakers, 2 rear speakers (to be wall mounted), 1 sub woofer, maybe center...

I hear a lot about how a separate external DAC can improve the audio quality of a home system and am wondering if it would improve my particular system. I currently use a PS3, connected to a Marantz SR5005 receiver, with Paradigm Studio 20s as my mains. Correct me if I’m wrong, but if I...

I wanted to share some thoughts with you as I received a ton of things last week to enjoy and bring my experiences to our community. I've got some thoughts on each, this is not a shootout because I understand each speaker is drastically different from one another I wanted to compare sizes...

Currently have an older Nad C-740 receiver and PSB Alpha A/V s bookshelf speakers on stands and wish to upgrade. I am thinking about a new receiver and a pair of floorstanding speakers....perhaps with a center channel speaker. Presently I am using a DVD player, Roku 3 and Panasonic 42 inch...

Hello Everyone, I'm not sure if "Incoming" threads are relevant on this forum but they seem to be pretty fun on my watch forum so I hope this works the same. I've been really into speakers lately and I'm working to replace a 5.1 Infinity Primus setup as you may have gathered from my posts...

Hi guys, I've got the Studio 20 v5 speakers but I was looking at some measurements on the far more expensive B&W 805D (3x the price), and I thought I would share some frequency graphs both on-axis and off-axis and you could share your thoughts. Paradigm Studio 20 ...

What I am looking for: I am looking for speakers that are good for Movies and Music 50/50. I don't like speakers that sound recessed or emphasize bass to the extreme or roll off the highs too soon. Above all I want it to sound full. I am not familiar with audiophile terms so when I say full I...

Hi, After months of listening to speakers I decided on the Aperion Verus Grands and I'm very happy with them. I run a 9.2 system with front wides instead of heights and I was going to buy Aperion Bookshelves for my front wides. I was mainly doing this for aesthetic reasons; I currently use my...
