Paradigm Studio 80 Floor Standing Speakers

At a Glance

Studio 80 is part of Paradigm's Reference Series from the Millenium. It features a three-driver, two-and-a-half-way design; 8" woofer, an 8" mid-woof, and a 1" aluminum dome tweeter. The cabinet is well-braced to minimize resonance. Paradigm's hallmark is accuracy and these live up to that reputation: wide dynamic range, tight bass, detailed midrange, and smooth highs. Rated from 35Hz to 22kHz with a sensitivity of 90 dB. Finish is a cherry (maple?) laminate that despite its 25 years, looks stunning. All drivers are electrically perfect and the grills look great (no stains or snags).
