Introduction
Paradigm has been in the speaker business for many years - 28 to be exact - and they have consistently produced some of the finest floor standing speakers and subwoofers on the market. What many may not be aware of is there full line of in-wall and in-ceiling speakers. I had the chance to check out their extensive line up at this years' CES. It was also my first time meeting some of the nice folks at Paradigm. They recommended I try a set if in-ceilings in my family room to finish out the surround sound system. At the time, I had only a 3 channel setup - fronts and center. Adding normal direct radiating, or dipole/bipole speakers to the system just wouldn't be practical since our family room is open to the dining area and kitchen. Fortunately, the builder of my home had pre-wired the area for surround speakers and a couple multi-zone speakers. After some discussion we decided the SA-15R-SM model would do a nice job of filling out the sonic space in my family room.
