Technology, by definition, is the practical application of knowledge. When it comes to sound reproduction, no one knows more than Paradigm. When it comes to the practical application of that knowledge we’re committed to doing it better! Better measurements, better materials, better components always result in better sound … and better speakers.

While many speaker companies do not have the resources to design and manufacture their own drive units, Paradigm purpose-designs robust drivers for specific speakers.

 


 

To ensure superb consistency, our crossovers boast hand-selected precision parts.

Our high-power, high-current amplifiers with oversized power supplies and massive heatsinks deliver tremendous (and instantaneous) power output at all times.

Use your knuckles! Rap on our enclosures! As one reviewer asserted, they’re as dead as we claim in our literature! Acoustically inert high-density hardboard reinforced by strategically located radial braces limit unwanted resonances and increase enclosure stiffness. At other times, no bracing is even required on our speakers, even on our most powerful subwoofers as they pound out the deepest, loudest bass imaginable … it’s all in the design!

Custom speakers, often referred to as architectural speakers — designs hidden out of sight in a wall or ceiling (for those who don’t have the space or want a minimalist approach to music and home theater) — are growing in popularity. Again, Paradigm is leading the way in this area. When it comes to in-wall/in-ceiling speakers, there is no substitute for good design build on years of experience producing the very best sounding freestanding designs. More than 25 years of intensive research and design backed by cutting-edge technology, much of it proprietary, lie behind every custom speaker we produce. The result? Sound reproduction that rivals that of the very best freestanding designs.

Precision. Consistency. Long-term reliability. These are inherent characteristics of even the smallest Paradigm component part. Technology and design that represent true innovation in the pursuit of perfection in audio reproduction. Out of this come sonic accuracy and purity, a clean, detailed and transparent reproduction of the original performance, nothing more, nothing less.

It starts with knowledge, it ends with knowing, knowing that you’ve created a better product … an audibly better product. You hear it in every Paradigm speaker produced!

SIG-LCR 5 v.3

6-driver, 3-1/2-way integrated in-wall left / center / right system, critical bracing and volume supplied by required Paradigm BX-LCR 5 backbox (sold sep.)


Overview

SIG-LCR 5 Integrated In-Wall System … the Ultimate for Music
and Home Theater

Exceptional Installation Flexibility

… install three SIG-LCR 5’s in the wall behind a perforated screen or position three in a left / center / right configuration around an on-wall display / screen.

An Innovative Audiophile Approach to Center-Channel Performance

When used in a horizontal orientation, to ensure the ultra-wide dispersion and exceptional timbre matching for which Signature speakers are renowned, SIG-LCR 5’s unified tweeter / midrange assembly can be rotated 90°. The precision and accuracy of this assembly and the sophisticated Signature crossover design ensure the rotation maintains the proper dispersion pattern between drivers and interaction between drivers and baffle, perfectly preserving sonic integrity.

Why a Backbox is an Integral Part of this Design:

• The backbox is required support for the large, heavy, cast-aluminum speaker mounting frame and baffle assembly;

• In concert with the IMS/SHOCK-MOUNT™ system, the Ultra-Rigid™ backbox removes any opportunity for unwanted resonances or standing waves to color sound output;

• Provides the exact engineering-determined internal volume to achieve maximum
full-range performance and output;

• Helps reduce the amount of acoustic bleed-through to adjacent rooms.
