Just bought these speakers -- super excited about them! They sound amazing!

Paradigm speakers are just pure class. That blue-gray combination is absolutely gorgeous, btw.

[ChefAnatoly]

Paradigm has produced some of my favorite speakers for a few decades now.

[angelotig]

This is serious engineering folks! Unbelievable build and sound.

Paradigm- Anthem makes nothing but top notch quality products. That blue is just absolutely gorgeous. I know because I own and have owned quite a few of their products. I just absolutely love my Signature S8. Listened to several way more expensive speakers before I made the decision to go with S8s and I knew instantly it was right choice the second I heard them. Noticed I said second and not minutes.

I have a 7.1 ch Paradigm system for my home theater. Amazing for music and movies! That's the only brand I will buy in the future!

[rickdietrich]

Amazing stuff would love them matched up with anthem of course or parasound halo as my dream system!

I auditioned these at a stereo store here in Portland. powered by a Bryston amp we listened to Bonnie Raitt's version of "Right Down the Line" from the "Slipstream" album. it was like being in the studio with her. truly amazing. in the past I've listened to many different models of Paradigm speakers. all very good and a great value. I can't afford the Persona 9H but after listening to them for the better part of 30 minutes I'd say, given the much higher priced competition, they are very much worth the asking price. give them a listen if you ever get the chance.

They do make good things in Canada, they have the National Research Council to help.

3:12 - I thought JBL had patented the term "Differential Drive"

I heard the Persona 5f todays and came away thinking at times they were a touch rough and hot on the top end, other times it was the closest I ever heard a speaker to sounding like live music.  I need the Persona B's in my house, in "blue" please!

[matsudakodo]

Beautiful, but I just wish they had designed the Persona series to a neutral target rather than a W-shaped response.

[Psyphonyx_Life]

How did the visit go this year? =) ... I heard some of the demos through the floor <3

Looks like Paradigm and Wilson audio are using the same company to produce their commercials.

[stevenoconnor]

The manufacturing looks like such a bite off of Bowers and Wilkins lol

[BIGBASSSAMA_]

is this an upgrade over my new goldenear triton one.r towers?

[HowDareYouu]

i.m sure they sound good - but i saw some issues in the manufacturing quality - after 5000$ and up the details are very important even inside the speakers

[prashanthb]

Looks like Paradigm is not a me too product.
Nice effort, I hope you guys succeed !

[The_Hand]

So, how that compares to a 10k dolby atmos system i mean what’s the difference with just having two front towers compare to the whole system you can get for half the money?

[leosalasify]

Would buy for $10, 000, but not $17, 000
