INTRODUCTION
Thank you for choosing speakers from Paradigm’s Reference Collection and congratulations! You
are about to hear the difference these state-of-the-art high-end speakers will make in your music
and home theater system.
Your speakers were designed and engineered in our Toronto, Canada facility. They are internationally
recognized for their exceptional state-of-the-art sound. In fact, Paradigm is the only speaker brand in
the world to be rated #1* year after year.
Extensive listener preference tests conducted by the National Research Council (NRC) give our
design engineers a firm understanding of how we hear speakers and clearly establish which design
parameters are most critical to good sound. Using the NRC findings along with measurement-based
analysis done in the anechoic chamber at our Toronto facility and listening tests carried out in
our controlled double-blind listening rooms, Paradigm engineers work to constantly improve our
speakers in three critical areas:
Flat Midrange: Smooth and even with coloration reduced to the lowest level possible.
Smooth Total Energy Response: On and off axis, sound must be fundamentally similar. Dispersion
must be wide and uniform ensuring superior imaging and a wide listening area.
Low Distortion: Lowest levels possible.
In addition, Paradigm concentrates on two other significant performance areas:
Better Bass Response: Tight, extended and well defined.
Higher Power Handling: to improve dynamic contrasts and sonic realism, power compression
must be minimized.
Unyielding attention to all of these areas results in state-of-the-art speakers that are measurably
and audibly superior. Comprehensive R&D, leading-edge design, use of the finest materials and
sophisticated manufacturing and quality control provide vastly superior performance for each
component part at every stage of design. Quite simply, we build better sound and we have the
product awards to prove it.
Your new speakers will provide you with stunning reference quality sound and unparalleled listening
pleasure for many years. Their ultra-thin profile was designed to complement the thinnest flat-panel
television on the market today as well as the ‘even thinner
flat panels yet to come.
To achieve all of the exceptional sound they are capable of providing requires care in installation
and operation. Please take the time to read this manual and follow all instructions. If you have
further questions, contact your Authorized Paradigm Reference Dealer or visit the Q&A page in the
Tech Support section of our website at paradigm.com.

Paradigm DOES NOT supply hardware for mounting speakers to the
wall. Hardware shown in this manual is for example only and will vary
depending on the wall type. Always use screws appropriate for wall
type and weight of speakers.
If installing into drywall, install into 1/2˝ (13 mm) or 5/8˝ (16 mm) drywall
only. Screws must be long enough to go through anchor bolts (not supplied)
and firmly into drywall (see inset circle, page 8).
IMPORTANT: ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS FOR SPEAKER STANDS
(INCLUDED WITH SPEAKERS) ARE FOUND IN THE BOX WITH
THE STAND.
IMPORTANT: READ BEFORE WALL-MOUNTING YOUR SPEAKERS.
Wall mount your speakers securely enough that they cannot fall and
cause personal injury or damage to property. Use safety straps where
supplied. Detailed information on attaching the safety straps is included
in the section on Installation later in the manual.

in this manual could be used for purposes and in ways other than those for which

safely and properly. Every effort has been made to provide accurate, error-free
