About the Signature S2 v3

The Paradigm Signature S2 v.3 is a premium bookshelf loudspeaker designed for audiophiles seeking exceptional clarity and dynamic range in a compact form. It features a 1-inch pure beryllium dome tweeter (P-BE) that delivers crystal clear highs up to 45 kHz, and a 7-inch Co-PAL (cobalt-infused anodized pure aluminum) bass/midrange driver with a Non-Limiting Corrugated surround allowing for greater cone excursion and linearity. The crossover frequency is set at 1.8 kHz with a third-order slope, optimizing the handoff between drivers. The speaker has a frequency response of 52 Hz to 45 kHz (±2 dB on-axis), a sensitivity of 88 dB anechoic (91 dB in-room), and an impedance compatible with 8 ohms. It can handle amplifier power from 15 to 225 watts, with a maximum input power of 140 watts. The cabinet measures 15" H x 8.25" W x 14" D and weighs 28 pounds. Available finishes include Cherry and Piano Black. The Signature S2 v.3 is praised for its sonic coherence, detailed treble, and ability to reveal subtle musical nuances, making it suitable for both music and home theater applications. It is considered a benchmark in the bookshelf speaker category at its price point, around per pair in the US market, though prices may vary by region.
