A customer of mine had a pair before upgrading to other speakers through me. I found the bottom end to be boomy and muddy. The sound just didn't escape the speakers that well either. Now, mind you, he upgraded to a much better speaker from me that is a lot more money as well, so it's not a fair comparison. But after listening to both, my customer noticed the exact same things I heard. He had plenty of power on tap which should have controlled the bottom end well, so I think that's just the way they sound. I've heard other Paradigm Studio series speakers that left me with the same impression as well.
Your impressions on Paradigm Studio 60 v5?
A few months ago, I bought a pair of PSB Image t5, knowing that some days, I will either upgrade to a better PSB or the Paradigm Studio 60 v5.
What I like about the PSB t5 is the fact that they are really full-range, extending well below 40hz.
It's a great budget tower.
However, they do not have the clarity, the resolution I have enjoyed with Vandersteen 2CE Signature (too big for my environment, I had to sell them) or the Paradigm Studio 40 v4 (they were lacking bass and were on stands).
I have not heard the studio 60 v5 - for those who have, do they extend as much as the PSBs below 40Hz? How's the bass impact? I will not have a subwoofer. I just want 2 channels, floorstanders, with the smallest foot print possible. THank you for your input!
I have the marants pm-8004 integrated to connect.
