Paradigm Reference Studio Series Home Theater Stereo Surround Sound Speakers

“Destined for classic status … believable and natural … A complete lack of coloration allows the natural timbre and tonal quality of the original performances to come to the fore … exceptional transparency … The Studio/60 is a satisfying loudspeaker in every respect and can stand its ground in esoteric company with ease … even at twice the price, it would still qualify for bargain status.”
– Deon Schoeman, Audio Video, on the Studio/60

“… Top to bottom tonal balance was exceptionally even, with no part of the spectrum given undue prominence. The midrange, in particular, had a most pleasing neutrality, which allowed the distinctive quality of voices and instruments to be preserved.”
– Robert Deutsch, Stereophile, Vol.23 No.6, on the Studio/100

“… a cabinet that is solid—rapping on them with your knuckles results in a rather muted, dull "thunk" that gives no indication of anything moving as a result of the impact (and sore knuckles!)”
– Dennis O. Wasnich, Stereo411, on the Studio/100

“I took a few minutes to tap the enclosure using a small rubber head mallet … no resonances or other funny sounds emanating from the enclosure: Solid as a rock”
– Joseph M. Cierniak, $ensible Sound, on the Studio/100

“This kind of weight is indicative of the extensive internal bracing that is employed … cabinet construction was comparable with the very best I've ever seen …”
– William Kelly, Audio Video, on the Studio/100

“Rapping on the sides of these SOLID enclosures only wasted my time; they were as 'deas' as the literature would have you beleive.”
– Gerald J. Walsh, The Audiophile Voice, on the Studio/100

“Bravo! … very clear, neutral … an effortlessly articulate character at any level. Female voice was very clear … choral voices bloomed in space … Acoustic guitar was very quick, the transient characteristics of the Studio/80 outstanding, coupling with remarkable lateral image precision to focus the pair of guitars in an almost visual manner.”
– Andrew Marshall, Audio Ideas Guide, on the Studio/80
“There is only one way to describe the midrange – "Sweet." … sounds are reproduced very cleanly and dynamically … Vocals (male or female) come through with lots of detail and emotion … quitars had the right amount of "ring" and presence to make them come alive … Piano solo was – rich, warm and beautiful … Horns – clean and bright …”
– Dennis O. Wasnich, Stereo411, on the Studio/100

“The Studio/100's bass performance was also first-rate: extended and powerful … The Studio/100 had no trouble coping with my usual bass test pieces. The synthesizer note at the beginning – energized the air most convincingly, and bass drums had proper weight.”
– Robert Deutsh, Sterephile, Vol. 23 No.6, on the Studio/100

“… smooth as silk in the midrange … These transducers are as neutral as neutral can be … a true full-range system with response that is unheard of from many speaker systems, including some with pricing that is five places to the left of the decimal.”
– Joseph M. Cierniak, $ensible Sound, on the Studio/100
