Paradigm · Premier Series v2

Performance isn't learned.
It's inherited.

The reimagined Premier v2: the new benchmark for value in the high-performance category. Flagship-inspired technology, distilled into a series engineered to deliver near-reference sound at an approachable price point.

The Premier Series v2 is more than a next-generation release. It is the definitive performance benchmark in its class — a sophisticated gateway to near-reference sound for listeners ready to step beyond standard systems.

For over 40 years, Paradigm has set the standard for high-performance audio through rigorous research and world-class engineering, built on the belief that everyone should have access to exceptional sound. Every speaker in the Premier v2 series is designed, engineered, and overseen by the team at Paradigm's Canadian headquarters, ensuring the flagship DNA is reflected in every component.

The Premier v2 brings the laboratory to the living room. By distilling the groundbreaking technologies of Paradigm's flagship systems into a more accessible format, the v2 strips away the barriers between standard playback and true reference-grade fidelity.

Engineered with flagship DNA.

An elite suite of trickle-down technologies forged for Paradigm's higher-tier ranges and optimized for this series.

High frequencies

AL-MAC™ tweeters

A sophisticated blend of aluminum, magnesium, and ceramic — lightweight, rigid, and resistant to resonance. The result is detailed, lifelike high frequencies with the openness of a true reference design.

Midrange

AL-MAG™ midrange drivers

Crafted from aluminum and magnesium to provide the agility and precision required for natural vocals and instruments. Voices stay anchored, instruments stay separated.

Bass

Carbon-X™ unibody bass drivers

Single-piece unibody cones designed for maximum strength and minimal mass, delivering deep and controlled bass even at high volumes. No flabbiness at the bottom, no fatigue over time.

Imaging

Patented PPA™ Lens

Paradigm's Perforated Phase-Aligning lens ensures all frequencies reach your ears simultaneously. It acts as both a physical shield and an acoustic filter, blocking out-of-phase frequencies for a significant leap in three-dimensional soundstage.

Dispersion

OSW™ Waveguide

The Oblate Spherical Waveguide precisely shapes output to focus sound on the listening area while reducing unwanted room reflections. Clear, focused imaging regardless of your room's acoustics.

Isolation

Outrigger Shock-Mount feet

The floorstanding models use adjustable Outrigger Shock-Mount Isolation Feet — a flagship-inspired system that decouples the speaker from the floor, controlling vibrations and resonance that can muddy your audio. Spikes for carpet, rubber caps for hard floors, both included.
