buying paradigm speakers in the bay area

only one i know of is in palo alto and not only is the auditioning environment poor but youre going to get prices that have ZERO competition

gotchforce, I did a lookup on Paradigm's website and saw Sound Perfection in Menlo Park but nothing in Palo Alto. Is this the dealer you're referring to? thanks.

thanks guys! I'll get in touch with them this weekend and hopefully get it ordered.

went to performance audio in san francisco today and saw the studio 60 and studio 100 v3 on sale. I demo'd both and instead of ordering a studio 60 v4, I ended up getting a studio 100 v3 for an excellent price! musicloversaudio has the 100's v3 but at a higher price.

I'm not sure, but I believe that the 100 v3 would be a bad match for the v4 center channel speaker.

The sales guy said that he will ask the paradigm rep to find a new cc-570 v3. If he can't find one, he'll sell me the one he has at home so either way I'll get a matching center channel.

any other paradigm dealers besides Music Lovers and Sound Perfection? I'm interested in the Paradigm Studio 20 v.4s and want the biggest selection of stores to bargain with.

Bay Area Audio in Cupertino is another Paradigm dealer, I believe, but you have to make an appointment to go to their showroom as they are now a custom-install business rather than a stereo/HT shop. They used to keep stock on hand, but I'm not sure that's still the case as it's been several years since I've been there.
