RECENSIONI E PREMI PROFESSIONALI

Spoiler Alert: The Paradigm Reference Signature S8s are amazing speakers that don't cost a small fortune. They offer performance way beyond what you'd expect for the price... the Signature S8s have major audiophile cred.

Value is everything in today's marketplace and... the Paradigm Signature S8 v3 is just that. You could talk about the S8 versus other loudspeakers in the $4,000 to $10,000 price range but the Paradigms simply wipe the floor with nearly every player in that part of the market on most levels...the Paradigm Signature S8 is possibly the best value in high-end loudspeakers period.

There is a great deal to admire about Paradigm's best-of-the-best effort, including a dazzling treble region, thanks to one special tweeter, a well-integrated midrange, and nimble, deep bass. Diligently set up, these speakers convey space, including height information, better than most, and better than some that cost many times their price, and they transport you into the unique sonic world of each recording in an exhilarating way... Golden-eared audiophiles, and especially the audio press, need to hear these speakers, perhaps again and again, so that the music-making abilities of Paradigm speakers sink in.

With a 25 year history of building products with a strong performance to value relationship, Paradigm has now proven its ability to improve a design several times over. It should be very proud of this latest v.3 iteration that includes state-of-the-art components like pure beryllium tweeters, injection-molded, mineral-filled, polypropylene bass cones, and beautiful piano finishes. Whether it's delicate audiophile sounds or bombastic movie effects, Paradigm has proven it can still build world-class speakers for affordable prices.

The Signature series is the real deal. It sounds effortless at any playback level and provides breathtaking imaging and incredible dynamics. I've found my new reference.

These Paradigm Reference cabinets are a wonderful slice of high-end audio, which compete for clarity with some speaker packages way more expensive...the performance is just that amazing

A 5.5-inch surround with carbon-infused polypropylene cone with a larger PPA lens handles the midrange frequency driver, and two 5.5-inch ART surround polypropylene cones provide the bottom end.
