Paradigm 3f vs 120h

Thanks for the feedback, very useful.

The Persona 3F will be more detailed than my Thiel CS3.7, which also needs space to breath. I have demoed the 3F, 5F, and the 9H. The 9H was the worst since the dealer had the bass cranked up to 11 on the speaker and the sound was so disjointed. A shame that I never heard the 9H setup properly. The 3F and 5F sounded great in 2 large rooms. However, the gear that was used was not ideally suited for them.

The KRELL does sound great at low volumes. I have been listening at low volume lately late at night since my headphone amp has not arrived yet. I was using the Benchmark LA4 preamp with the KRELL and that may have something to do with the quality since it is also great at low volume.

we sell both the blades and the personna 9hs 

the 3fs plus the paradigm sw 200 sub is a killer combo

the blades throw a bigger soundstage the personnas are cleaner and more holographic the prrsonnas are trickier  to get right as the Beryillium drivers tend to be a biit more forward

both of these are killer reference loudspeakers

I'm interested in this comparison also, specifically which of the two models would throw a larger soundstage

The 120 likely will throw a larger stage, the persona'a present a tighter picture

we sell both the founders are excellent the personas are far better the only area the 120s are  better only in deep bass
