Paradigm Subwoofers
A subwoofer is made up of one or more large drivers in a single cabinet. It is specifically designed to reproduce the low-pitched audio frequencies known as "bass" and covers the range between 20 Hz and 200 Hz. A subwoofer enhances the frequency range of a speaker system by delivering the lowest bass notes, a frequency area that a typical speaker cannot fully deliver, and gives dynamic impact to the low-frequency effects in movies and music. Omni Tech Spaces is a Michigan Paradigm Authorized Dealer.
An unprecedented level of realism. Our flagship PERSONA line is a showcase of vanguard materials and our most advanced technologies, all entirely Crafted in Canada.
SUB 2
Signature Series
$10,500 each MSRP
The Best Subwoofer in the World, Period.
The most difficult task in designing SUB 1 and SUB 2 was not just to have these subs play lower and louder than any other subwoofers in the world, but to do so in a size that wouldn't dominate the average living room, and in a cabinet that could be mistaken for a very fine piece of furniture.
And then there are the mind-boggling specs. SUB 2 plumbs the depths to 7 Hz with bloodcurdling output: 112 dB at 10 Hz, 126 dB at 60 Hz (in room). Connected to a 240-volt line, SUB 2 delivers 4,500 watts of continuous RMS Sustained power and a Frankenstein 9,000 watts of Dynamic Peak power through its unique Power Factor Correction system. Talk about bringing your music and movies to life! SUB 1 is no slouch either, delivering 1,700 watts of continuous power and 3,400 watts at peak.
With not one, but six cutting-edge drivers in each sub, transient information is conveyed with pristine clarity and perfect precision. Dynamics come through with lightning-fast speed and a power so shattering that it must be heard to be believed. Bass reproduction is eerily accurate and detailed, in large part a result of the unique Vibration-Canceling Design Architecture (VCDA)
Step-up performance. Reference quality sound and style, advanced components and an exceptional performance-to-value relationship.

Seismic Subwoofers
$1,650 each MSRP
Seismic™ 110: Alpha Dog of Compact Industrial Design Subwoofers
Design innovation for maximum performance from a minimal footprint! A true collaboration between industrial, mechanical, electronic and acoustic design.
Unlike many subwoofers on the market, Seismic™ 110 has no off-the-shelf parts. A completely custom build, demonstrating how good it gets when form truly follows function!
Bass Driver
Overmolded Inverted Corrugated Santoprene® Surround. Derived from research performed on our award-winning Signature Series speakers, the corrugations allow for extreme excursion while retaining stability and exceptional centering characteristics.
Extreme Long-Winding-Width Voice Coils (almost 60 mm per coil!) allow 2˝
(50 mm) of extremely linear excursion with vanishing low levels of distortion.
1-1/2˝ (38-mm) Split Voice-Coil Construction. Oppositely wound turns on each coil effectively eliminate motor non-linearity. High temperature wire (adhesive rated to 450 F / 232° C) ensures long-term reliability and very high power handling. Apical™ formers contribute to high stiffness.
10˝ (254 mm) Mineral-Filled Co-Polymer Polypropylene Cone with RCR™ Resonance Control Ribs on the underside.
Amplifier
Innovative Ultra-Class-D™ Amplifier with Switching Power Supply. More than 90% efficiency! Prodigious total output: 1,700 watts of Dynamic Peak Power; 850 watts of RMS Sustained Power.
Big Power from a Compact Package. Our low-noise, ultra-high-power, compact transformer (0.4 lb / 0.18 kg) boasts an ETD-core developed particularly for applications that require high power in a small format.
RVC-12SQ
RVC In-Wall
$799 each MSRP
Dual State-of-the-Art Side-Mounted 4˝ (102 mm) x 14˝ (356 mm) Mineral-Filled Co-Polymer Polypropylene Cones. Highly damped and tremendously rigid cone provides tight, well-defined low-frequency response with a weight and authority that does justice to the most challenging music and movie material.
Pleated LCS™ Linear Corrugated Surround features Ultra-Long-Travel Suspension. The over-molded design produces truly exceptional peak-to-peak cone movement producing higher output and lower distortion—every bass note sounds distinct. Cone ribbing increases stiffness, reducing resonances to inaudible levels.
State-of-the-Art Motor Structure / FEA-Optimized 1/2-lb (0.19 kg) Super-Neodymium Magnets. 1˝ (25 mm) 6-layer voice-coil, anodized high-temperature aluminum former and dual Nomex® cloth spiders.

One-Piece High-Pressure Ultra-Rigid™ Die-Cast Chassis and Immovable MDF Medium Density Fiberboard Mounting System. State-of-the-art system! A superbly rigid structure that easily withstands every decibel of the enormous power generated by the two state-of-the-art 4˝ x 14˝ bass drivers! NOTE: A backbox is optional with this subwoofer.
Impedance Matching Switch. Allows use with X-300 or X-850 amplifiers.
MilleniaSub
Millenia Series
$1,399 each MSRP
Back-to-Back Bipolar Dual-Woofer Design … inherently vibration cancelling. Woofers fire in opposite directions resulting in a physical cancellation of vibrations and a massive reduction in the potential for sound-destroying resonances. Bloated, boomy bass?? Not a chance!!
Killer Polymer Monocoque Cone Design … the outer skin of the woofer cone bears the brunt of the motion stress brought on by extended cone excursion. Cone is FEA-optimized for maximum strength-to-weight ratio.
Over-molded Corrugated Santoprene® Surround … well known performance advantages like high excursion and symmetrical compliance as well as increased longevity and you-can-bank-on-it-performance reliability. Design geometry reminiscent of our RVC-12SQ in-wall sub = higher output, lower distortion, every bass note sounds distinct.
Radical Dustcap Design … braced through the center and adhered to the cone's edge allowed us to move primary cone breakup mode to outside the woofer's operating band. Reduced distortion (inaudible actually!) and improved frequency response. Not to mention it looks totally cool!
FEA-Optimized Motor Structure … 1˝ voice-coil, high-energy rare-earth neo magnets – swami-approved for their radiating energy!
5-mm Thick Extruded Aluminum Cabinet … ultra-rigid but also super slim, allowing us space to tuck in all of this crazy state-of-the-art technology!
Advanced Ultra-Class-D™ Amplifier … Paradigm's Digital Signal Processing Design. Sophisticated mathematical algorithms ‘shape' frequency response ensuring accurate, consistent, musical bass without distortion even at the highest output levels.
Our affordable audiophile lineup. High-performance products for music and home theater that represent truly exceptional value.

Twice the Bass. Half the Space
Until we released our PCS Series, choice was limited when it came to high-performance in-wall/in-ceiling subwoofers. Most options simply didn’t deliver the kind of big bass performance that got us excited at Paradigm. In fact, the only things those other brands excited were wall vibrations — not a good thing in a custom subwoofer. PCS subs gave you real choices for real bass performance. Our in-wall PCS-82SQ sub gives you even more!
A single Paradigm X-300 amplifier (sold separately) is designed to power one or two PCS-82SQ subwoofers.
Full-perimeter Bracket Design. Unlike typical mounting ears, brackets cover the full diameter or height and width of the speaker chassis to effectively sandwich and strengthen the area around the mounting hole.
Dual Advanced High-Excursion CFP™ Carbon-Fiber-Reinforced Polypropylene Cone. The addition of carbon fiber provides excellent cone rigidity. Over-molded ‘M-roll’ design thermoplastic surround guarantees greater cone excursion and durability. Two 210-mm (8 in) CFP™ carbon-fiber-reinforced polypropylene cones, 38-mm (1-1/2 in) voice coils, over-molded TPR™ surrounds, 38-mm (1-1/2 in) 4-layer copper wire voice coils, high-temperature polyamide formers, ceramic/ferrite magnet structures.
