Product Description
The Paradigm Founder 100F is no ordinary loudspeaker. We’ve treated every part, large and small, as if it were the most crucial piece of the whole. Every component has been thoroughly researched, designed, engineered, and tested.
Aluminum Magnesium Ceramic (AL-MAC™) High Frequency Driver:
The Paradigm Founder 100F tweeter is made lighter and stronger with our special combination of Aluminum, Magnesium, and Ceramic materials. It has a natural resistance to uncontrolled resonance that makes it far more accurate and responsive than other designs.
Aluminum Magnesium (AL-MAG™) Midrange Driver:
The Paradigm Founder 100F midrange driver is developed with listener sensitivity in mind. The midrange is in many ways, the most important driver of any speaker design because it produces the most familiar sounds like the human voice.
Ultra-High-Excursion CARBON-X Unibody Bass Driver:
To maintain clarity in the lowest frequencies, we’ve created an ultra-stiff, ultra-strong bass driver made from mineral-infused carbon fiber. It’s molded in a single piece to maintain control at the highest volumes. Combined with our patented ART Surround, it is both detailed and powerful.
Oblate Spherical Waveguide (OSW™):
Our research into the evolution of modern home interiors led us to create the OSW™ Waveguide. This uniquely shaped part is used in Founder’s tweeter and midrange drivers.
Perforated Phase-Aligning (PPA™) Lens:
To protect the Paradigm Founder 100F tweeter and midrange driver cones, we developed the Perforated Phase Aligning (PPA™) Lens. Not only does it look beautiful, it ensures that all frequencies reach the listener’s ears at the same time.
Cascade Fusion Bracing:
Speaker cabinets should be seen and not heard. To ensure that the driver’s output is entirely uncolored, we developed Cascade Fusion Bracing.
Advanced Shock-Mount™ System:
To lower distortion and further maximize driver performance, we’ve created the Advanced Shock-Mount System™ for both the driver mounting hardware and the cabinet feet.
