Special Soundtrack System Features & Why They Are Important
2.1 channels of sound … a room-filling sound experience. The two full-range driver complements in the sound bar are physically separated into two channels. Three drivers make up the right channel of the sound bar with three more on the left. This separation ensures that sound from both channels travels widely and deeply throughout the room. Stereo imaging is immaculate. Superb reproduction of the original live event or original recording session. If in a live performance cellos were to the left, violas spread across the front, drums in the back, then that’s where you will hear them. Sound will follow the live performers as they travel across the stage. In a movie, as special effects fly in, you will find yourself ducking your head.
Paradigm’s DSP signal processing design uses sophisticated mathematical algorithms to shape frequency response so that even when the system is playing at loud levels, sound is clear, musical and authentic.
About The Drivers
• Bass/Midrange - 2 x 4-1/2" Bass/Midrange Woofers: Mineral-filled polypropylene. This material delivers a superb low-mass, high-stiffness ratio. The benefits of this? Excellent re-production in the higher midrange and fast transient response (explosions, etc). The material is also an effective damper for distortion as the woofers move back and forth.
• 2 x 4" Passive Radiators: Constructed of a mineral-filled polypropylene, the dual radiators extend the speaker’s range in the lower bass frequencies.
• 2 x 1" High-Frequency Ferro-Fluid Cooled Dome Tweeters: Pure-aluminum dome tweeters are a rarity at this price. Fluid cooling the voice coil improves power handling which improves the accuracy, purity and range of the high-frequencies.
Compact Low-Profile Sub With Dual Ports
8" laminated polypropylene cone driver with a 1-1/2" high-temperature aluminum-wire voice coil. Dual ports ensure even, articulate, well-timed bass performance. Oversized ports and driver are arranged in a perpendicular array to achieve the low-profile design. Wired option for Sub Woofer is also available, cable not included. If desired, the sub will fit into a standard AV equipment cabinet.
Proprietary Class-D Amplification
The Class-D amplification delivers 2 x 25 watts of RMS power and 2 x 50 watts peak power from the Soundbar. The amplified sub delivers 100 watts of RMS power and 250 watts peak power.
