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!

 

Amplifiers

Patented high-power, high-current designs with oversized power supplies and massive heatsinks ensure full power delivery 
at all times.

Precision components and dual-sided, military-spec (FR4-rated) glass-epoxy circuit boards with plated through-holes ensure
superior performance and reliability.

Virtually all Paradigm amplifiers benefit from our own Digital Signal Processing Design which monitors the line current and
voltage, regulating long-term average power output power. But there's more …

Sophisticated mathematical algorithms "shape" frequency response, ensuring accurate, consistent and musical bass without distortion, even when the subwoofers are playing at the loudest level.

 

 

 

 

 

Paradigm's own Digital Signal Processing Design

Reflecting our cost-no-object approach to design in our Reference series, state-of-the-art technology and design includes
such features as:

  • Ultra-Class D designs including a unique dual design on selected models

  • A comprehensive heat dissipation system

  • Power Factor Correction, allowing maximum power to be drawn from the wall, with far less noise

  • Switching power supplies

  • No power transformers or super compact transformers with ETD cores for applications requiring high
    power in a smaller form factor!
  • Advanced Output Stages to increase switching speed and efficiency

  • Pulse Width Modulation Power Processors

  • Opto-coupled inputs for better isolation and lower noise

  • Short-circuit protection with truly superb reaction times

Ultra-rigid amplifier panels provide revolutionary heatsinking and mechanical rigidity, in addition to improved isolation and
lower noise.
