Paradigm Premier 200B Speaker Review

July 25, 2019 by Chris Heinonen 1 Comment

The 200B is the top bookshelf speaker in the Paradigm Premier lineup. It is equipped with a 1” dome tweeter and a 6.5” midrange/bass driver and a quick look shows the influence of the Persona speakers.

The top of the cabinet is different than most … [Read more...] about Paradigm Premier 200B Speaker Review

Revel Performa F228Be Speaker Review

July 22, 2019 by Stephen Hornbrook Leave a Comment

While I liked aspects of both, neither checked all of the boxes I was looking for in this new system. Enter Bluesound Gen 2.

SVS PB-3000 Subwoofer Review

February 6, 2019 by Chris Heinonen 2 Comments

The SVS 3000-series subwoofers replace the longtime 13-Ultra series in their lineup. Packing a 13-inch driver, updated amplifier with 800 watts RMS and 2,500+ watt peaks, and app control offering easy setup and a 3-band EQ you can control from your iOS or Android device. This time I decided to change up and review the PB-3000 model instead of a sealed model. With two 3.5” ports … [Read more...] about SVS PB-3000 Subwoofer Review
