My first question is regarding 2 Paradigm subs that are very similar in cost, by seem vastly different in design. The Sub 25 using a single 15" driver and the Sub 1 using six 8" drivers. They would be used for both music and movies pretty evenly. Which of these 2 subs would you guys say comes out on top? Which one offers a cleaner, tighter sound with more punch? Which has more rumble? Which has more output? Is one better for music then movies or vice versa? Size and weight isn't an issue, my biggest concern is the sound. Anybody here hear both of these? Also, I've been looking at an upgrade from my current set up and have been putting components together not so much based on a budget, but on what I want to see how much it would cost in the end, then to determine how long it will take me to get there. I've been looking at the Signature series speakers. I was looking at the Studio's at first, but I keep hearing that the Signature series sound significantly better then the studio series, especially with their beryllium tweeters. My question is, do you think the S8 is worth the extra cost if the system will be used with a subwoofer, or would the S6 do fine with a sub? The price jump is pretty substantial from the S6 to the S8 from what I have read. As of now I plan on this being a 5.1 system, using a Parasound A51 amp, which I'm sure should power these beauties nicely. Basically what I want is a system that can play very loud, AND very VERY clear. I like my music and movies loud (my poor ears) so the only time's they would be played and low volumes is when I have to be considerate for other people in the house (or sometimes in my case, the neighborhood) lol. I listen to ALL types of music, with the exception of screaming death metal and dub step. Those are probably the only 2 genre's I don't care much for.
