So I actually ended up passing on the Paradigms!

I've recently heard the Signature V5's and they are just outstanding speakers. I did a head to head of the Sig S2 V5 and the Triton 2's.

Now that Sig 2 V5 is one hell of a bookshelf speaker, for $3500!

But I also gave those V1 signatures a listen, and decided that they really weren't better than the Triton 2's, different but not better.

Excellent - thanks for the update. Makes the $3000/pair Triton Twos seem like quite the bargain .

Enjoy!

Yeah,

I think that is where these speakers really excel is bang for the buck.

I listened to the Aon 3 (I have the 2's as rears) vs the 30th anniversary paradigm bookshelf. Now, I did think the 30th anniversary paradigms sounded better.

BUT, the Aon 3's were 1k and the Anniversary P-dimes were $2500. I felt that the Aon 3 provided 85% of the "Sound quality" but at less than half the price.

I will say that the one thing that I really hope happens though is a Triton center. It does not need to be powered, but I do feel that a fuller sized center could provide some benefits. I have the 60c, and it's a fine speaker, but I'd like something a little fuller ranged.

everything is sold. Thanks.

How much are you asking for the AON 2's?
