Why would any manufacture give 20% off an expensive speaker and ruin it for those who purchase in good faith at list?
Paradigm Persona series
I'm beginning to poke around and gather opinions and information about a "super speaker" to replace my aging Thiel 2.4s. I like the idea of bass dsp room correction and I am a bit of a point source type imaging nut (thus the Thiels). So among other choices I've been looking at the Paradigm Persona series specifically the powered 9H with room correction for the bass. However I'm skeptical of the "lenses" i.e. pierced metal covers on the midrange and tweeter specifically because of Paradigm's claim that such screens "screen out" "out of phase" musical information. The technology in the design seems superlative but I just can't get past the claim re out of phase information and the midrange and tweeter covers. What could possibly be the science behind this claim? It just seems like its putting a halloween moustache on the mona lisa given the fact that the company is generally a technology driven company.

No one is upset about it aside from you. There’s nothing unusual about something being on a promotion. Every single industry does it. Where did I say I was upset over it? Just asked a question. I'm happy for those who are getting great discounts, but to me it devalues the products. They should just price them fairly to begin with. Plenty of companies (in audio) don't allow dealers to discount and won't offer promotions. I've seen dealers loose lines over this. |
