Give it a shot and let me know what you think.

As soon as I find a bit of breathing room in the wallet which should be a few weeks, I'll pick them up. Thanks for the advice. In the meantime I ordered a new couch to go in front of the other in my pics. Same style but 3 seats ! Added pics to my gallery by the way.

I have a hard time sleeping is that normal ?

So this week's going to be a big week for me. The 20's, 60's, a new 3 seat couch in the same "u" style like the one in my gallery to put in the first row, and possibly ordering the 690 center at the end of the week !

That's not to mention that I got the ADP590's just a week and half ago !

Now going to be eating Karft Dinner for the next 6 months to compensate

Does anyone on here own the Paradigm Signature series speakers? They are my dream speakers and I'd love to see what their setup looks like with those amazing speakers in them.

Here is one setup i could actually find.

And here is a shot of the newest Sig v3's shown at cedia.

Do you guys like the look of the Cherry or the Gloss Black on those Signatures more? I'd have a friggin' migrain tryign to decide if I was out to buy. They both look spectacular.

i prefer gloss black, but it may come down to money for some people.

The gloss black and birds eye maple cost a premium over the cherry.

They don't list the maple finish anymore as "bird's eye maple" they just say "natual maple". Is it actually still the bird's eye or is it different? I have seen the bird's eye maple finish in person and it is magnificent looking.

The cherry will with keep it's value more if you ever decide to sell them, people who usually buy speakers in the price range want the cherry or other colors over black. Just something to keep in mind plus the black will show dust and finger prints. I personally like the cherry, but would be happy with just owning signatures.

True. Its technically not a "birds eye", but it is so freakin similar lol. Very pretty finish IMO.

Does anyone know the price/pair for the Studio 60s? My next upgrade will be fronts and I'm starting to really lean toward the 60s. The only quote I can find is from 2004...what's up with that? I assume they are around $2000/pair which is purrrrfect

Hey Guys,
I just stopped in the shop I work at today and they got a pair of S8's V.2 in Bird's Eye Maple in from a guy looking to sell them on consignment. Just thought I'd pass that info along. Anyone interested, PM me. Or you can always give the shop a call. Website is on my profile.

T DUB · 10-06-2009, 02:21 AM

Anyone know if there is any difference in the cherry finish that both the Signature series and Studio series have? For the price difference I would expect the Sig lineup's finish to look "higher end". Can anyone attest to this?

Honestly the price isnt about the finish anymore, you get leaps and bounds better drivers. That Be Tweeter is amazing.

The cherry finish is very similar to the v5 studio version. The Studio version looks a little plastic like to me though, almost fake even though its a real veneer.
