Title: Paradigm Atom v2 - thanx NP
Post by: RnR on April 16, 2017, 02:32:19 PM
Thanks to nick (non-prophet) for helping me out and making a deal on a pair of paradigm atom v2 bookshelf speakers. My brother is in the beginning stages of audio addiction so I am helping him put together his first decent system.  I paired them with a paradigm PDR-8 sub that I lent him.  Rev and I did a driver swap on it and upgraded to a beefy JL driver.  The atoms sit atom some rugged but functional B&W stands that nick was cool enough to throw in, a coat of paint and they'll be great.  I also brought down a crate of Neil young, Pink Floyd, Willie, Sam Cooke, lynard skynyrd,  WAylon, jefferson airplane, doobie bros, ext ext to get him spinning.  He's currently using a low wattage Cambridge audio amp with hpm-60 spkrs.  How will that paradigm 2.1 stand up to classic pioneers? Well , We were rushed off from his wife to go to in laws before we could demo, but are supposed to meet back up.  Will report back on the spin session.
