    Muddy, muffled, distorted sound from one Paradigm Model 3se speaker

    Forgive me if this is a covered subject, this is my first post here and I’m hoping someone on here has the answer I need to get these Paradigms back in order. I love this forum and have learned much from reading old threads. So, this week I found a pair of Paradigm Model 3se’s at my local...

    Anyone have the Paradigm Active 20 Schematics?

    Hello, so I found a pair of Paradigm Active 20s off the curb and thought that they would be some nice speakers to add to my collection. Once I got home, and plugged them in, I was immediately greeted with static. Once I quickly pulled the plug and removed the amplifier, I was immediately greeted...

    Can you help me choose between Klipsch KG4 and Paradigm Monitor 7 v3?

    Hi guys, I'm still pretty new to HiFi and have been trying out various used and vintage speakers and amps on a budget. My current amps are an NAD 3155, Sony ST-6060, and HK 930, with the NAD the main amp in use right now. I have some pretty decent sounding bookshelf speakers but am looking for...

    Paradigm 5seMk3 vs 11seMk2

    I currently have a set of Paradigm 5seMk3 speakers that I enjoy, I have an opportunity to pick up a pair of 11seMk2 for what I believe is a reasonable price but I can't find much info comparing the Mk2 with the Mk3 line. Does anyone have any experience with both these lines of speakers that can...

    Yamaha A-460. To bi-wire or not bi-wire. That is the question.

    Hi, Very new to the scene and could use some advice. Picked up a Yamaha A460: https://www.hifiengine.com/manual_library/yamaha/a-460.shtml Pairing with Paradigm Monitor 7.v2's which can be bi-wired. I am assuming I can bi-wire speaker terminals and connect to A speakers L and R at amp...

    Yamaha A-420 with Paradigm 3se's.

    Hello, Completely new to this world so be gentle. Had an original pair of Paradigm 3se's sitting around and found what I hope will be a fully functional Yamaha A-460. Will be adding a Yamaha Dvd-s550 as one source, and a BT unit for my digital music. For the Paradigm 3se's, given the...

    Solid state amps all sound the same?

    I never believed all SS amps sounded the same, after all I compared the amp section in my receiver vs that of a separ!ate amp and the difference was night and day. Over the years I've acquired a few "mid-fi" amps and those all sounded the same with both my PSB IMage t6s and my Paradigm studio 20...

    Paradigm towers: 9SE MK3, Monitor 7 V1 or Studio 60 V2

    Hey all, About 8 years ago I made an accidental entry into Hi-fi sound when I picked up a used set of Paradigm 9SE MK3 for $100 off Craigslist. Those speakers were eventually stolen, but they set the bar for me personally for high quality audio. Now I'm looking to replace those speakers and am...

    Paradigm 11se mk3

    Recently bought a pair of Paradigm 11se mk3. Could not be happier with my purchase. As a curiousity though, would anyone here have a crossover schematic or a cap list?

    Paradigm Titan V1 Rebuild

    I have a pair of Paradigm Titans that I possibly bought new - it was long enough ago that I can't be sure! They have cycled in and out of rotation for almost 25 years, and I've always enjoyed listening to them. Great imaging, balanced sound, I've even used them as desk monitors and been very...

    Home Theater/Listening Room Advice

    I've currently got the following in my HT (Living Room): Jamo D830s NHT Super8 Sub Paradigm SE Center Denon AVR-X2000 Here are my thoughts. Can someone tell me if I am way off base or if this sounds reasonable? I feel like the Jamos are under-utilized in this setup. I've got this mis-mash of...

    The $100 Hi-Fi

    Finally got this set up to a point I am pretty pleased with it. Acquiring a Stereo Cabinet has proven to be immensely difficult for some reason. So this little TV stand works for now (Now watch, I'll find one for like $5 at a Thrift store next week after spending all this time setting this up) I...

    Paradigm Reference Studio 80’s!

    Just picked up a pair of Paradigm Studio 80’s. They are in decent shape. Both speakers are missing 1 of the feet. They have feet and spikes. Very heavy speakers! One of them also needs the tweeter repaired/replaced. Does anyone know where I could get a good replacement? I’m ok with aftermarket...

    Can I get some advice on my first and current set up ever

    So I've done what I feel like a crazy amount of research before piecing my first ever vintage stereo system. Take it easy on me as I'm sure there are many things that I have missed but I am all for any recommendations that could be better for my next setup for my basement. Currently running ...

    Paradigm Studio 100 v1 - impedance

    Hi, Trying to find nominal impedance for version v1 of this speaker. I see starting with version v2 the manual says "8 ohm compatible". Should I expect the same from v1 version? Thanks, -Peter

    Paradigm Tweeter Diaphragms For Mini Monitor V2 And CC-370 V2

    Paradigm has informed me that they are out of stock on V1-V4 tweeter diaphragms. Since I have 3 speakers that need them, I was wondering if anyone knew of any other sources of replacements - Parts Express, etc. Something that will at least get them going again. Paradigm suggested buying new...

    Setting optimal crossover frequency?

    Hi guys, I'm wondering if anyone has dealt with using a sub woofer that is of a smaller diameter than a left and right side tower speaker? My Paradigm PDR-8 v.2 has a 8" woofer which handles 29-150 Hz (internally amplified), whereas my left and right side towers are capable of 32-20,000 Hz...

    Sonus Faber Venere S

    Hello all, I currently have the Venere 3.0, as well as the center and 1.5s for the rear. I'm thinking of upgrading the 3s to the S for a net cost of $1000 (including sale of 3s). Does anyone familiar with the line know if it's really that much of an upgrade? Maybe I should think about moving...

    Should I repair Paradigm 5SE MKII speakers?

    Hey y'all, I'm kinda new here so I hope this is the right place to post this. Over the weekend I picked up a pair of Paradigm 5SE MKII bookshelf speakers for $40. When I picked them up I inspected both surrounds and they were in good shape. But! When I was headed home and hit a big bump in the...

    Paradigm 9se MK2

    I am confident to say that these are the best speakers I've owned thus far. The two 8 inch woofers deliver startling bass to the point that I am constantly checking my integrated amp to see if the bass knob has been turned up or if the loudness button is pushed in. I couldn't wait to hook...

    So I recently picked up a bunch of really nice used gear but unfortunately with the package was only 1 Paradigm 11seMk3 Speaker.. I got all this gear together for a great deal. My question is can I use the 2 8" woofers from the Paradigm speaker for my Bang & Olufsen s45 speakers? They are the 2...
