HIGH-DEFINITION SOUND
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.
NON LIABILITY: We are aware that the mounting assemblies provided for speakers
in this manual could be used for purposes and in ways other than those for which
they were intended. The manufacturer, distributor, retailer and their respective
agents cannot be held responsible or liable for injuries or property damage—direct,
indirect or consequential—arising from the use of or inability to use these products
safely and properly. Every effort has been made to provide accurate, error-free
installation instructions. Paradigm Electronics Inc. disclaims liability for difficulties that
may arise from the misinterpretation of information contained in these instructions.
RECYCLING AND REUSE GUIDELINES (Europe)
In accordance with the European Union WEEE (Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment) directive effective August 13,
2005, we would like to notify you that our speakers may contain regulated materials which, upon disposal, require special
reuse and recycling processing. For this reason Paradigm Electronics Inc. (the manufacturer of Paradigm speakers and
Anthem electronics products) has arranged with its distributors in European Union member nations to collect and recycle this

YOUR NEW SPEAKERS
Break-In
Although your speakers will sound great ‘out of the carton’, they will sound even better once they are
‘broken in.’ Allow them to play for several hours before you begin to listen critically.
Drivers use ferro-fluid that can thicken at temperatures below 10° C (50° F). Surround material used
in the bass/midrange units is made of a compound that may stiffen in colder temperatures. If your
speakers have been transported or stored in the cold, let them warm to room temperature before use.
Cleaning
Your speakers have a premium finish that must be treated with care. Use only a damp, soft cloth to
clean. Never use strong, abrasive or corrosive cleaning products. Common household cleaning
products should be avoided.
Speaker Grilles
Your speakers are meant to be played with their grilles on.
HOW TO AVOID SPEAKER DAMAGE
Your speakers are efficient and can be driven to loud listening levels with moderate amplifier power.
They are also able to handle the output of very powerful amplifiers. To prevent damage to your
speakers, please read the following guidelines before hooking them up.
Amplifier Distortion — The #1 Culprit!
Amplifier distortion is the principal cause of speaker damage. When listening at loud levels your
amplifier may run out of clean power. It will then begin to produce distorted power several times greater
than its rated output power. This will damage any brand of speaker very quickly! (See Dealer for
amplifier recommendations.)
More Powerful Amplifiers are Safer
A 40 watt/channel amplifier will have substantial distortion above 40 watts. If driven to 50 watts,
this amplifier will deliver distorted power which will damage the speaker! A 100 watt/channel
amplifier will have substantial distortion above 100 watts, but very low distortion below 100 watts.
Therefore, when the speaker requires 50 watts, this more powerful amplifier will deliver clean power
and speaker damage is less likely to occur.
Volume Control
Do not be fooled by the Volume Control of your receiver/preamplifier. It only adjusts listening
level—it is not a “power-output” dial. The amount of amplifier power actually used at a given
Volume Control setting depends solely on the nature of the music you are listening to.
At a given Volume Control setting a quiet section of music will use less amplifier power than a loud
section. With typical pop-rock, jazz or large scale classical music, the rated output power of many
receivers/amplifiers is often reached when the Volume Control is between the ‘11 and 1 o’clock’
settings (with bass/treble and loudness controls not used—otherwise rated power may be reached
at even lower Volume Control settings).
Remember, all amplifiers produce distortion when operated beyond their rated output power. The
resulting distortion will damage all speakers! Exercise caution! If you listen at loud levels, be careful
to listen for the point of audible distortion—if the speakers begin to sound distressed turn the
Volume Control down or your speakers and/or amplifier(s) will be damaged! This type of damage
constitutes abuse and is not covered by the warranty. If louder volumes are desired, obtain a more
powerful amplifier.
