| Paradigm Persona series Everything is system dependent. The Audience where a nice match for my previous Magico S3 The Personas in my room where a little on the bright side. I didn’t give them much time and if I let the Personas break in they probably would have been fi... | |
| Paradigm Persona series Funny in my system I sold my Au24SX interconnects and speaker wire when I bought the 5F's . Just way to lean. | |
| Paradigm Persona series "No need for any kind of “tuning footers” or anything like that. If they’re sounding bright, you need to get them positioned properly and acoustically treat your room. Things like ISO acoustic Gaia’s are nice and all, it the higher end more inert ... | |
| Paradigm Persona series Nice review. Unfortunately 4 days are certainly not long enough for proper break in. I am assuming they where new? The Personas need 300 hrs per Paradigm and I can attest this to be true. Beryllium takes a long time to settle. I would like to see... | |
| Sell your $$$ cables and conditioners... affordable LITHIUM is here! Unfortunately the Yeti 400 will not work for me. I got about 50 minutes before the fan came on when powering an Aurender A10. The fan stayed on about ten minutes and then came back on 30 or so minutes later. It did sound pretty good but I had to ... | |
| Paradigm Persona series Ok. Let’s all agree that the Personas are on the bright side . Numerous test show the bump in the upper registers. Easily fixable I knew my amps and music server/dac where on the warmer side . Tube pre. Good to go. I just swapped out the Audienc... | |
| Paradigm Persona series Little info on the Genesis room correction upgrade from Paradigmhttps://www.dropbox.com/s/e6oesnfjax4gxm2/ARC%20GENESIS%20DECK%2001292019.pdf?dl=0 | |
| Paradigm Persona series From Stevie Ray to Daft Punk the Personas Rock. I heard the 5f’s at Axpona with the Macintosh 600 watt monos do 1 k peaks and filled a 30x60 room with 14 ft ceilings without a quiver We where sitting 15 ft away measuring 100 dB peaks. The Pers... | |
| Paradigm Persona series Glad to see a few folks giving the Personas a chance. I am enjoying the heck out my 5f’s. Sound better all the time as they have a long break in time. Electronics on the warmer side and you will be rewarded. Cabling is also very important. Cerious... | |
| Sell your $$$ cables and conditioners... affordable LITHIUM is here! Thanks... I will hope for the best!! | |
| Sell your $$$ cables and conditioners... affordable LITHIUM is here! So.. I have a 400 being shipped as I type. I will have an Aurender A10 ( integrated music player/ dac) and a Micro Zotl 2.0s pre plugged in. Together about 70 watts per manufacturer.Just wondered if the fan only comes on when the 400 gets warm? Do... | |
| Paradigm Persona series I don’t think half of the dealers Persona’s are broke in. Paradigm will tell you 300 hours. All I can say that with proper cabling and with tubes somewhere in the chain the Persona’s ( I have the 5f’s) are a great speaker. Absolutely kill my previ... | |
| My Long List of Amplifiers and My Personal Review of Each! After looking a little closer I would think that room is 16x 13 The bay window may help but WC must be hitting 115 dB. I don’t know how he can get proper bass as you need a 30 ft room for a 20 hz note and he has no treatments. Awesome system for s... | |
| My Long List of Amplifiers and My Personal Review of Each! WCI may have missed it but what is your room size and how far from the speakers is your listening position?Russ | |
| Magico A3 vs S3 MKI I owned a pair of S3 for a year. Pretty good speaker. I have heard the A3 at Axpona and the S3 is a much better sounding speaker to me. Of course you are comparing 22600 new vs 9800. I just sold my pair a few mos ago for 9500. (Just what I paid fo... |
