Hey guys... Nuance, TJHUB - been a while since I have been in here...
Just thinking about speaker upgrades.... Looking at suggestions for my situation, and have some questions... I was really considering going with Paradigm Sig S8 .v2, C5, S2's - after audition - I thought they were very nice.... They would easily fit everything I have identically - making for a very simple swap...
Current systemParadigm Studio .v4's 100's, CC690, 20's, Infinity Classia rear's...
Anthem D2v, Wyred4Sound 7 Ch Amp -500x3, 250x4
3 x 18" LMS-5400, 1 x TC3000 all sealed - 4000w each, DCX2496
OK heres the deal, room is gynormous and I like to hit some really high SPL's currently which the studios can do, they are just a bit harsh as Nuance can likely attest to...
Though the D2v 'n ARC has worked wonders with what I have - It sounds surprisingly pretty darn good, just want to get that last bit of awesomeness out of it all....
With 4 Subs in room I can cross a bit higher at 100-110hz with fantastic results, and no localization issues whatsoever...
1. I have heard Brandons RT-ST's, as well as Terry's HT2-TL's, which were spectacular... The HT3's are too wide for my setup, so I was thinking about the HT2 line TL or standard - could someone explain what the difference in them would be....
2. What are the differences between the LCY ribbon or G2 ribbon, is that upgradable on the HT2? Not that the LCY is anything to snarf at...
3. As you can see in the photo, I made a custom riser for my plasma, and built it around the dimensions of the Paradigm 690 or C5 center.... I really don't want to build another, so what is the chance of a custom wide center to roughly match the dimensions of what I have now.
4. Can the SongSurround be upgraded to a Ribbon as well ? - That is roughly the size of speaker I have in the Studio 20 wall mounted... it would make things very easy for the change over...
5. Should I be considering a V3 as well... for a 3 way with better mid's..?
Don't mind the old photos, there have been updates, carpet and other treatments....
I suppose I should update those pics.... Also still have to veneer my subs and top with granite.... One of these days...
