    I'd skip them for $100...let alone $900. It ain't that good.

    You do realize that those are Signature S8, right? Anybody with good enough woodworking skills and tools can make these babies look better than originals. But at 1699 - that's too much for the condition.

    I'm interpreting Doro's posts as: He's not impressed with Paradigms???

    No, I like Paradigm. I just am not that hard up that I need to buy some questionably operating, poorly maintained, aesthetically screwed loudspeaker. There's other things to do, buy, research and own as its not a white elephant to me. I've heard it, sounds good, next.
