Blown away with 2 speakers hifi sound!


   I upgraded my CD player and the sound I am getting from Paradigm Studio 20 speakers is truly amazing! The sound is liquid and transparent magic...I never heard them sound so good. In fact, I find myself not listening to music but to the sound of speakers, if you know what I mean. Audiophiles should be able to relate to this...

   I am starting to believe the company's bold statement about Paradigm shift speakers with in the price range - haha

   Another speaker I am in love with is Martin Logan Motion 35XT with exotic tweeter that has pleasant transparent magic...The sound is as a whole is also liquid so Hifi-ish. Try to hear them and most likely you too will agree that they are so good that you keep hearing speakers rather than concentrating on music, and they are way below $1000! I think they are a bargain in Hifi world these days.

   I hope readers of Audiogon will agree with my take on the 2 speakers and enjoy good quality for a few hundred $.

Happy listening...

I read these comments regularly but have only posted a few times. As a 50 year audio geek working in the industry, I have spent plenty of time focusing on the reproduction at the expense of simply enjoying the music. But there are those occasions when the music takes me to a rapturous place.
Now at 68 my hearing is in decline and the nuances of audiophile discernment are outside my grasp. You’d think I would relax and just enjoy the music now, but not so. The habits of 50 years are hard to kick. 
Bravo to those who find the rapture!
I stand by what I said. If you are listening to speakers instead of listening to the music, you are indeed doing it wrong.

When I get an oil change in my 12 year old car, for about 5-10 minutes after the engine seems to sound and feel like new then reality sets back in. It's a 12 year old car with 150k+ miles. Tricks of the mind.

So you upgraded the CD player, and credit the sound to the speakers.

I agree. That is truly amazing.
