REVIEWING SOUND BARS: AN ALTERNATIVE TO TV HOME THEATER SYSTEMS

Soundscape includes four built-in low-frequency speakers for deep bass. For those who would still like to use an external subwoofer, a wireless receiver is included that attaches to any existing subwoofer unit. At 42 inches in length, the 20-pound Soundscape offers rich bass and crisp sound. When I tested it, I heard music that I had been missing from my TV's internal speakers.

PARADIGM SOUNDSCAPE 5.1 POWERED SOUNDBAR REVIEW

Among soundbars, the Soundscape is a top, feature rich, performer and you can't go wrong. If you consider the Pareto principal, you will get 80% of the performance and enjoyment from the Paradigm when compared to a dedicated theater, especially for normal TV viewing.

GAME CHANGER: A SOUND BAR AN AUDIOPHILE CAN LOVE

The Soundscape is significantly more powerful than any other subwooferless sound bar, and clarity and dynamic punch were superb... man, this sound bar is a force to be reckoned with! Whether it was Kong wrestling with dinosaurs or space station hijinks, the Soundscape's dynamic punch easily KO-ed what passes for merely excellent everyday high-performance sound bars.

PARADIGM SOUNDSCAPE SOUNDBAR

We can definitively add Paradigm's name to the handful of makers that offer 'serious soundbars'...The Paradigm continued to impress me across a clutch of favorite scenes, offering lots of clean level while maintaining clear, balanced dialogue and very respectable dynamic impact... The Soundscape also goes substantially lower than a lot of other soundbars... if you value dynamics, bass extension, and overall sound quality first, you'll be well rewarded.

PARADIGM SOUNDSCAPE REVIEW

If you're in the market for a soundbar and have a big budget to play with, the Soundscape is a worthy purchase thanks primarily to its sumptuous design and outstanding sound quality, which help justify the hefty price tag and earn it a Recommended badge. It delivers the sort of big, room-filling sound stage you'd expect from bigger speakers, with huge bass output, masses of detail and authoritative dialogue. Music also sounds fantastic through Soundscape's high-e...

PRODUCT REVIEW: PARADIGM?S SOUNDSCAPE POWERED SOUNDBAR

Sonically is where the Soundscape truly shines... While the Soundscape is pricey by soundbar standards, it certainly has the features and performance chops to back it up. And when clients hear how great it sounds without requiring an extra black box, they'll likely consider it a bargain.

THE BEST SOUNDBAR

The best overall soundbar today is the $1,500 Paradigm Soundscape. It offers the best combination of sound quality, features, and usability of any soundbar that we can find. After spending over 25 hours researching and comparing soundbars (and directly listening to the top six models in my listening room), we found it beats out the rest of the competition. If you want high-quality audio without the hassles of multiple boxes and wires, the Paradigm Soundscape is o...

PARADIGM SOUNDSCAPE REVIEW

I've heard a huge number of sound bars through my work with The Wirecutter, Secrets of Home Theater, and Reference Home Theater. The Paradigm Soundscape might be the best that I've heard to date. It doesn't have any major flaws, and it sounds superb. It offers a huge step up over the speakers built into your TV without the complexity of separate components. For great sound quality with little hassle, the Paradigm Soundscape is the sound bar you should go listen to.
