Overview:

Louder.
Lower frequency. Less distortion.  When was the last
time you heard music performed live? Whether it’s in a spacious concert hall,
an airy amphitheater or an intimate club, live music is the ne plus ultra
entertainment experience. Artists on a tightrope, no net, playing full out;
using their whole being to generate emotion and excitement. Audiences up on
their feet, dancing; or riveted in place by virtuosity. Music is a living
thing, born in the studio and on stage—growing, expanding, taking over the
world. It takes an extraordinary level of loudspeaker performance to reproduce
that thrilling experience in the comfort of your home. That’s the goal of our
new Prestige Series.

You know Paradigm builds the most
powerful subwoofers and the new Prestige 1000SW and 2000SW are no exceptions.
Designed, engineered and hand-built in our Canadian facility, the new Prestige
subwoofers feature a clean design with front mounted controls including a Tone
Sweep to instantly locate room rattles and buzzing, PBK On/Off and much more.



Prestige 1000SW feature a single 12" high excursion driver, sealed
enclosure, built-in Ultra-Class D™ power amplifier, USB port, on board sweep,
and PBK equipped for advanced room correction.

Ultra powerful amplification and advanced technology drives
Prestige Subwoofers to another performance level. With front mounted controls
and integrated room correction with PBK, you'll get gut-wrenching bass in any
environment.

Efficient
Ultra-Class-D™ Amplifier: More than 90% efficient, Prestige 1000SW
subwoofers are designed to completely control the bass driver for up to 1,000
Watts of sustained power.

Ultra-Low Noise Transformer: Unlike cumbersome and heavy
transformers used in line frequency power supplies, Prestige 1000SW uses noise
reducing networks and an advanced control circuit resulting in high current and
ultra-quiet operation.

Digital Signal Processing: Paradigm has maximized processor
efficiency and audio output to deliver a consistent and musical bass without
audible distortion – even when the played at loudest level.

Maintaining control over your
design and manufacturing process is the only way to ensure perfection. For the
ultimate in control, Paradigm builds its drivers in-house. Only by handcrafting
bass driver ourselves can we guarantee the consistency of our precision
engineering, going beyond the industry standard to deliver superior high
performance in each and every Prestige Subwoofer we build.

 

X-PAL™ brushed pure-aluminum woofer
cones combine lightweight stiffness with high consistency for a greater degree
of accuracy and smooth, uncolored frequency response. Matching dust caps
ensuring more uniform dynamic response and a cleaner, modern aesthetic.

Super-strong die-cast basket features an integrated heat sink
for higher power handling, better bass, and better dynamics and less power
compression.

Paradigm’s patented† Active Ridge Technology (ART™)
surrounds, made in-house and overmolded directly onto each cone, achieve
greater excursion for a 3dB gain in distortion-free output (50% greater)
compared to drivers with standard surrounds. Crafted from audiophile-grade
injection-molded thermoplastic elastomer, ART™ surrounds are more durable and
reliable, for a lifetime of superior sound.

 

Lightweight, extremely durable
high-excursion Nomex spider design: delivers a longer life of flexibility and
performance. Nomex is 10-times stronger than industry-standard cotton-based
spider material.
