Paradigm Premier 800F Floorstanding Front Speaker Pair Black

Performance and Value

To produce a speaker that meets our standards for performance and value, we took complete control of the manufacturing process, an unprecedented move at this price point. In our state-of-the-art North American facility, we produced a speaker that defies convention; a homegrown speaker that benefits from innovations found in the Paradigm speaker family.

Patented Phase-Aligning Tweeter and Midrange Lens (PPA™)

The distinctive perforated lens in front of the tweeter and midrange drivers increases and smooths the output without coloring the sound, while also protecting the drivers from damage.

Patented Active Ridge Technology (ART™) Surround

Premier features Paradigm's patented Active Ridge Technology (ART) surrounds, molded in-house and overmolded directly onto each woofer and midrange cone. This design allows for greater excursion, resulting in a 3dB gain in output and a 50% reduction in distortion. Made from injection-molded thermoplastic elastomer, ART surrounds are more durable and more reliable, ensuring longer lasting sound.

Partnered with the NRC

Paradigm is a partner of Canada's renowned NRC in their ongoing quest to reveal the true nature of sound and human hearing. The results inform the design and performance specifications, resulting in a uniquely lifelike listening experience backed by solid science.
