    The ST's seem to be like fine wine. They get better with age.

    I completely agree, initially I was completely blown away for HT use, but at times found them similiar to JL ZR series comps (for lack of a better comparison), they were very detailed and crisp, but lacking emotion at times. Almost too metallic, but as time went on they really loosened up. I honestly believe if I was supplying them with the 200 watts they deserve, I would not even consider anything else upstairs, but I soooo want a try at the LSi's. Maybe I will add a Rotel to them after the Polk system. :D

    Man...I can say this now because they are sold, but I can't believe you got rid of the Paradigms. I'll never sell mine....(famous last words).

    Still have the S8's?

    Hello,

    Going to see if there are any fellow members interested in some pristine Paradigms prior to posting them on the Gon. They speakers about two months old with a month of actual usage. Speakers are in perfect condition and are a great set of speakers. I am going to delay my second HT room for several months, and as such am clearing these out to figure out the new direction for the room once it becomes available again. I will forward pictures to those interested. I am located in SoCal and a local buyer would be great, but shipping is available.

    Pricing:

    Studio 100v5's- $1700 plus shipping
    Studio CC690- $800 plus shipping

    I will posting them on the Gon for $1800 and $900, but only if there are no polkies interested in the added discount. Any paypal fees would be applicable as well.

    Blueboxer...congrats on selling your Para's. I live and work overseas and just don't have access to stores and information. I've researched Polk rtia9's. I can get them via slowboat (military exchange)for $1500 pair. 90 to 120 days.
    What did you pay for your Paradigm Studio 100's? I've seen them on High End Retail for $2,699.00, they claim they retailed for $3999. I was born at night but it wasnt last night. Help an aspiring A'phile out. What can one expect to pay each for Paradigm Studio 100 v5? What is the factory MSRP? You would be suprised how hard it is to find that info out on the internet. I managed to land an unused Sunfire TGR3 receiver so I'm okay on the power and fidelity front. I bought a Polk IA ES2 ipod/hd radio. I purchased a Oppo BDP 83. All of this is on its way to me via the EX-wife and the USPS at much higher than expected expense.
    I digress...please let me know what Paradigm Studio 100's cost each.
    Thanks ,,,Ineed to someting to blow off the sand/dust that gets over everything.

    Virtualdean...give Nate a call at Custom Audio Concepts in Lima, OH. I paid $2200.00 for my 100 v.5's.
