It turned out a lot of people had been wondering the same thing, because the question kept coming up for the rest of the stream. Wharfedale took notice, and the result is the Heritage Centre, the first dedicated center channel in the Heritage lineup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \n\u003cp\u003eWe've had it in our lab paired with the \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.audioadvice.com\/products\/wharfedale-super-linton-bookshelf-speakers\"\u003eSuper Lintons\u003c\/a\u003e for the past few weeks.

A good pair of stereo speakers will outperform most soundbars by a wide margin, so why add more complexity to the system? The problem is that film audio isn't mixed for two channels, and the gap between what you're hearing and what the mix was actually designed to deliver is bigger than most people realize.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \n\u003cp\u003eThe center channel in a properly mixed film carries somewhere around 60 to 70 percent of the total audio information, primarily dialogue, voiceovers, and the anchor of nearly every scene. When you play that back through a stereo system, your receiver takes that center channel information and folds it into the left and right speakers through a process called downmixing. The result is that the center channel track gets mixed down to mono, which in theory should work reasonably well, but only if you're sitting perfectly centered between your two speakers and they're perfectly centered on your TV. In practice that's a one-person sweet spot at best.\u003c\/p\u003e    \n    \n\u003cp\u003eYou've probably noticed the symptoms without necessarily connecting them to the cause. Dialogue that feels slightly loose or detached from the image. Lines of conversation getting buried when a music cue or sound effect hits at the same time. And if you're sitting even a little off to one side, voices start drifting toward whichever speaker is closer. Over a two-hour movie that adds up, and it's the kind of thing that's hard to put your finger on but makes you feel like you're working harder than you should be to follow what's happening on screen.\u003c\/p\u003e    \n    \n\u003cp\u003eA dedicated center channel takes all of that off the table. It puts dialogue exactly where it belongs, locked directly below or above your screen, stable and clear regardless of where anyone in the room is sitting.\u003c\/p\u003e  \n    \n\u003cp\u003eOne important note before you go any further: adding a center channel requires an AV receiver. If you're currently running a two-channel integrated amplifier, you'll need to factor that into your plans. It's a worthwhile step, but it's not a small one. We have a full guide on how to set up a center channel properly, covering integration with your existing system, receiver configuration, and crossover settings, linked at the bottom of this article.\u003c\/p\u003e    \n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"col_full\"\u003e\u003cimg style=\"display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; max-width: 100%;\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0572\/3281\/8260\/files\/HERITAGE-CENTRE_Lifestyle-_7__1.jpg\" alt=\"Wharfedale Heritage speakers\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"col_narrow\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"hp-title\"\u003eWhere the Heritage Centre Came From\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWharfedale's Heritage series has been one of the more quietly dominant speaker lines in specialty audio over the last several years. The Linton relaunched in 2019 after an extended absence and immediately found a devoted audience. The Super Linton followed, along with the Denton models at various sizes and the UK-built Dovedale and Aston at the higher end of the range. What ties all of them together is real wood veneers, cloth grilles, and a warm musical character that doesn't give up detail to get there. They look like furniture in the best possible way, which is a big part of why people keep gravitating toward them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \n\u003cp\u003eAs the Heritage series grew, more people started using these speakers as their primary audio for TV and movies, running the Lintons or Super Lintons through a receiver and watching films through a system that was never really designed with that use case in mind. The consistent problem was that there was no center channel that belonged in that system, nothing that matched the veneer options, the driver approach, or the tonal character. The choices were to run without a center entirely, which as we just covered is a real compromise for movie watching, or to add something that looked visually mismatched and sounded like it came from a different design philosophy. Neither option was great, and that frustration came up constantly in comments, forums, and during that live stream, which is what finally pushed this over the line.\u003c\/p\u003e \n\n\u003ch3 class=\"hp-title\"\u003eHow the Heritage Centre Is Built\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Heritage Centre is a three-way design, which is worth calling out specifically because a lot of center channels cut corners and go two-way to keep the cabinet small and the price down. A two-way center channel means your tweeter or woofer, depending on the design, is handling frequencies that really should belong to a dedicated midrange driver, and that's a problem because the midrange is where voices live. A three-way design like this one has a dedicated driver for that range, and that makes a concrete difference in dialogue clarity and separation, particularly when the mix gets busy. There are some excellent two-way center channels on the market, but they tend to live at significantly higher price points to get there.\u003c\/p\u003e    \n\n\u003cp\u003eThe driver layout is two 6.5-inch woven Kevlar woofers on the outside, a 2-inch soft-dome midrange in the center, and a 1-inch soft-dome tweeter just below it. The Kevlar cones and dome materials mirror exactly what Wharfedale uses in the Linton and Super Linton, which is not an accident. The crossover points are at 900Hz and 2.7kHz, keeping that midrange driver right in the sweet spot for vocals. The cabinet is rear-ported with internal bracing and reaches down to 47Hz at -6dB, which for a center channel is a really solid low-end extension. It's what keeps the speaker from collapsing or sounding thin when a movie scene gets loud and dynamic.\u003c\/p\u003e    \n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"col_half\"\u003e\u003cimg style=\"display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; max-width: 100%;\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0572\/3281\/8260\/files\/HERITAGE-CENTRE_Artistic_Mahogany-_6.jpg\" alt=\"Close up view of the front of the Wharfedale Heritage Center speaker in Mahogany\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"col_half col_last\"\u003e\u003cimg style=\"display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; max-width: 100%;\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0572\/3281\/8260\/files\/HERITAGE-CENTRE_Artistic_Mahogany-_4.jpg\" alt=\"Close up view of the back of the Wharfedale Heritage Center speaker in Mahogany\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"col_narrow\"\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"subhead margin\"\u003ePlacement Tip\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause the Heritage Centre is rear-ported, placement matters. Try to leave at least six inches between the back of the cabinet and the wall, and avoid placing it inside an enclosed media console where the port is blocked. A cramped placement will choke the low end and introduce some cabinet coloration that the speaker wasn't designed to have. It doesn't need a lot of space, but it does need some.\u003c\/p\u003e    \n\n\u003ch3 class=\"hp-title\"\u003ePeter Comeau's Role\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEvery Heritage model goes through Peter Comeau, Wharfedale's Director of Acoustic Design, and the Heritage Centre is no different. Comeau has been responsible for the character of the entire Heritage line, which means this isn't a center channel designed to approximate the sound of the Linton and Denton. It was designed specifically to be tonally indistinguishable from that family. The crossover was engineered for this specific driver array in this specific cabinet. The voicing matches the Linton and Super Linton, so dialogue sits forward and clear without getting harsh up top, and there's enough body in the lower midrange that voices sound full and natural rather than thin. The goal was a center channel that disappears into a Heritage system and does its job without calling attention to itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \n\u003ch3 class=\"hp-title\"\u003eHow It Performs\u003c\/h3\u003e \n\u003cp\u003eWe ran the Heritage Centre in our lab with the Super Lintons handling left and right through a mid-range AV receiver. The improvement in soundstage stability compared to running the Super Lintons in stereo downmix mode was immediate and obvious. Dialogue locked to the screen. Action sequences that previously had a slightly diffuse, spread-out quality became spatially coherent and easier to follow.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \n\u003cp\u003eThe midrange performance is where this speaker makes its strongest case. The 2-inch soft-dome is doing exactly the job it was designed for. Voices have texture and presence and stay intelligible at volume levels where a two-way center would start to compress and lose definition. We pushed it through some demanding sequences and didn't run into congestion or smearing at similar volumes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \n\u003cp\u003eThe tonal match with the Super Lintons across the front soundstage is as close as you could reasonably hope for from a center channel. Audio panning from center to left or right moves through a coherent, continuous soundstage. You don't hear a different-sounding speaker taking over in the middle. That handoff is smooth, and it's what makes the whole front stage feel like a unified system rather than a collection of individual speakers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \n\u003ch3 class=\"hp-title\"\u003eWho Should Buy the Heritage Centre\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you own Lintons, Super Lintons, Dentons, or any other Heritage speaker and you're watching movies through a two-channel setup, this is the most direct upgrade available to you right now. There is no other center channel that was designed from the ground up to match this lineup, acoustically or aesthetically. If you're planning a Heritage-based home theater from scratch, build the center channel into your budget from day one. And if you've been on the fence about whether a center channel makes enough of a difference to justify the addition, the answer is yes, particularly if movies and TV are a significant part of how you use your system.\u003c\/p\u003e    \n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"col_full\"\u003e\u003cimg style=\"display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; max-width: 100%;\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0572\/3281\/8260\/files\/HERITAGE-CENTRE_Lifestyle-_2.jpg\" alt=\"Wharfedale Heritage Centre\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"col_narrow\"\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"subhead margin\"\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDo I need a center channel if I already have Wharfedale Lintons?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nNot technically, but if you're using them for movies you're missing a significant part of the mix. The center channel carries the majority of dialogue in most film mixes, and without one, that information gets downmixed into your left and right speakers, which works best only if you're sitting perfectly centered. If movies are part of how you use your system, a center channel is one of the most impactful additions you can make.\u003c\/p\u003e  \n    \n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill the Heritage Centre match my Lintons or Super Lintons?\u003c\/strong\u003e \n\u003cbr\u003e\nYes, and that's the whole point. It's available in the same Walnut, Mahogany, and Black Oak real wood veneer finishes, uses the same Kevlar driver materials, and was voiced by the same acoustic designer, Peter Comeau, to match the tonal character of the Linton and Super Linton. It's the only center channel built specifically for this lineup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat AV receiver do I need to use the Heritage Centre?\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e    \nAny AV receiver with a center channel output will work. The Heritage Centre is 6 ohms nominal and is listed as compatible with 8-ohm rated receivers, which covers essentially every AV receiver on the market. If you're currently running a two-channel integrated amplifier, you will need to upgrade to an AV receiver to add a center channel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan I place the Heritage Centre inside a media console?\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e    \nIt's not ideal. The Heritage Centre is rear-ported, so it needs some breathing room behind it, ideally at least six inches from the back wall. Placing it inside an enclosed cabinet where the port is blocked will restrict bass output and add unwanted coloration. An open shelf or placement on top of your console with clearance behind it will get the best results.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat crossover setting should I use for the Heritage Centre?\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e    \nIf you're running a subwoofer alongside it, setting the crossover around 80Hz is a good starting point. This lets the Heritage Centre focus on the midrange and upper bass where it performs best, while the subwoofer handles the lowest frequencies. Your AV receiver's room correction software, if it has one, may set this automatically during calibration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the Heritage Centre good for music as well as movies?\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nYes. Because it's tonally matched to the Linton and Super Linton, it integrates well in multichannel music setups too, not just home theater. If you're listening to music in a multichannel format or running a stereo array with a center fill, it holds up well in those contexts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n   \n\u003ch3 class=\"hp-title\"\u003eAudio Advice Take\u003c\/h3\u003e\nThe Heritage Centre fills a gap that Heritage series owners have been asking about for years.

This results in listeners having to turn the volume up to get adequate sound where it is needed, often resulting in noise complaints. With the Satellite + Subwoofer design of the Outdoor Living series, the bass is handled by a dedicated sub that uses a specially designed port and hood to evenly distribute bass within a listening area. This not only removes a lot of stress from the other speakers, but it also means you get an incredibly full-range sound at ALL volumes. Since the bass is being handled by a sub, the other speakers can also be much smaller, making them easier to hide while still providing great sound. Using more speakers ensures that sound is more evenly distributed throughout your yard and allows the system to be more easily heard at lower listening levels, something traditional setups typically struggle with.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHigh Performance, Simple Setup\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIdeal for spaces up to 3,600 sq ft, the Outdoor Living Foundation System is the perfect way to add crystal clear audio to your outdoor entertainment space.

At the start of Founder’s development, Paradigm knew one thing, when Art Embraces Science, anything is possible, and Paradigm exceeded their wildest expectations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFounder is no ordinary loudspeaker. Every component, large and small, was scrutinized down to the tiniest detail. Every component has been thoroughly researched, designed, and engineered, exclusively for Founder’s. New patented technologies were developed for the acoustic platform. The new cabinet platform is not just a stunning design, its unique shape and integrated structural bracing delivers acoustic performance that cannot be matched by traditional square boxes. By leaving no element unaddressed, Founder’s is so much more than the sum of its parts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDuring Paradigm's exhaustive research, design, and engineering process, they looked closely and carefully at how speakers interact with their environment. The contemporary home interior presents design challenges that have become even more prominent over the last decade. Stone, glass, and wood have become the materials of choice and open concepts dominate. Founder’s design has evolved with this trend and is perfectly suited to deliver its maximum performance in rooms that would challenge traditionally designed speakers. Whether you enjoy movies and music in a more traditional listening space, or your home is from the pages of Architectural Digest, you can be sure Founder will sound as good as they look.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \n\u003ch2 class=\"subhead margin\"\u003ePrecision\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen Paradigm says “precision”, they mean the nuance, detail, and realism that is achieved when a speaker “gets it right.” Founder series includes many new advances in design, materials, and engineering to provide class defining levels of performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAluminum Magnesium Ceramic (AL-MAC™) High-Frequency Driver \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAny high-performance speaker driver (in this case, the tweeter) must be both very strong (to prevent distortion), and very light (to be agile, responsive, and accurate). This quest of design and engineering has led the industry to try many different exotic materials. Some of them found practical application and many did not. AL-MAC is Paradigm's unique blend of Aluminum, Magnesium, and Ceramic materials; each of which contribute to the end goal of greater accuracy and realism. Their special properties contribute to the final product which is not only strong and lightweight, but embodies a natural anti-resonance to ensure the tweeter doesn’t just sound good “on paper” but truly sounds incredible in the real world. Cutting edge technology, with real benefits, in practical applications - this is what the Founder Series is all about.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAluminum Magnesium (AL-MAG™) Midrange Driver \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSimilar to the goals Paradigm had in mind when developing the AL-MAC tweeter, AL-MAG was conceived to bring the same elevated level of performance to the area where Paradigm's ears are the most sensitive, the midrange. If you have ever read a speaker review, the midrange typically gets a lot of attention, and rightly so. By nature, human hearing places an emphasis on things like voices so that Paradigm knows when we’re interacting with someone familiar. Think about how instantly recognizable your favorite recording artist or actor’s voice sounds. Paradigm's goal here was to have the midrange driver sound as realistic as possible. After all, isn’t that why you have a nice audio system? To make it sound like, “you are there?” With AL-MAG technology, Founder series comes another step closer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUltra-High-Excursion CARBON-X Unibody Bass Driver \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe foundation of Paradigm's listening begins with the lowest frequencies. In pursuit of ultimate clarity, Paradigm developed new technology, high performance bass drivers for use in the larger floorstanding models of the Founder Series. These drivers use a single-piece cone construction for added strength, especially at higher volumes, with the lowest possible mass to ensure every detail can be heard clearly. Combine this with Paradigm’s signature ART Surround, and Shock-Mount technologies and you get a bass driver that's both detailed and powerful, as it should be.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"subhead margin\"\u003eControl\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePacking incredible technology into a speaker means nothing if the benefits don’t reach your ears.

And while home interiors have evolved; many speaker technologies have not kept pace. Paradigm believes that speakers should be a natural extension of your room’s look and feel, while also providing a noticeable and real-world performance gain. Enter the Oblate Spherical Waveguide (OSW™) tweeter waveguide, only from Paradigm. The OSW™ helps Founder Series Loudspeakers cope with the challenge presented by modern-day environments, which are larger, more open, and full of reflective surfaces. OSW™ technology utilizes a precise, natural geometry to help focus the tweeter output where it matters, the listening area. As you move to the sides of the listening area, tweeter output gradually decreases, avoiding performance-robbing room reflections. Decreased output at the periphery of the room means that sound will not disrupt others that may be in earshot but wish to focus their attention elsewhere. Coupled with a larger, more powerful magnet\/motor structure with greater efficiency and lower distortion, OSW™ gives you better sound where you want it, and less distracting sound where you don’t. Real solutions for real life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePerforated Phase-Aligning (PPA™) Lens\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePerforated Phase Aligning (PPA™) Lens technology is a perfect example of form meeting function. Not only are the crafted metal parts beautiful to look at, but they protect the driver cone and provide a substantial performance benefit. For added levels of realism, the PPA™ lens works to ensure that all frequencies arrive at the listener’s ears at the same time. This means that everything sounds more realistic from the lowest bass, up to the most delicate details. Founder’s floorstanding models also receive this treatment on their midrange drivers helping to project the sound more predictably at a distance. That makes them ideal for listening from farther away without losing sound quality and detail to the room.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCascade-Fusion Bracing \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe first thing you see on a speaker should be the last thing you hear: the cabinet. Founder Series’ cabinets are not only beautiful and unique to the eye, but their design enhances performance. The more rigid and strong a cabinet is, the less resonance and vibration it produces, which invariably improves the sound. The Cascade-Fusion bracing inside the Founder Series’ faceted cabinets is engineered to both increase rigidity and break up any standing waves generated by the high output bass drivers. The inherent strength of Paradigm's unique geometric cabinet also helps distribute energy across a larger surface area providing even greater strength and support than is possible with traditional square cabinet designs. This ultra-rigid construction gives the drivers a neutral platform to play from, resulting in tighter bass, greater clarity, and more precise accuracy. These beautiful cabinets are “seen and not heard”.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAdvanced Shock-Mount™ System \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith Founder series, every detail matters. While all the technologies are something you can hear the benefits of, some are more focused on what you don’t hear: distortion. The Shock Mount system is one such special technology that is all about invisibility, both visual and sonic. While Paradigm made their drivers the “Stars of the Show”, accompanying technology and innovation ensures that all their benefits reach your ears. Something Paradigm is very proud of is the new Advanced Shock Mount system which is specifically designed to control vibration and resonance between the midrange and bass drivers and the cabinet. By mechanically decoupling these drivers from the specially designed and braced enclosure, these performance robbing vibrations are unable to transfer between the drivers and cabinet, or between the cabinet and the drivers. Without these resonances, all drivers are left free to deliver pure, unaltered sound with no audible distortion. Paradigm also applied this principle to the enclosure’s feet. Shock Mount Feet serve to decouple the speaker cabinet from the floor further controlling and eliminating the harmful effects of extraneous vibration. The feet can even be adjusted from above, without moving or tipping the cabinet making sure you get a perfectly level footing on any surface. Interchangeable hardware is included for both carpet and hardwood floors so that no matter what, you are hearing all the performance you paid for.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAnthem Room Correction (ARC™) \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs mentioned earlier that rooms have changed dramatically over the years, yet speakers have not kept pace with the evolution of Paradigm's living spaces. This is not just a bold claim, Paradigm can prove it! Using Paradigm's world-class room correction system, Anthem Room Correction or ARC, Paradigm has collected thousands of data points that paint a clear picture of a room’s impact on the sound of your speakers. There is a reason that singing in the shower sounds different than in a living room; the same voice in a different room equals a different sound. The latest version of ARC, ARC Genesis, is an incredibly powerful piece of software that measures exactly what your speakers are doing in your room and tunes them so any harmful effects from your room’s acoustics are all but eliminated. ARC Genesis is a tailor-made solution that controls the parts of the room that aren’t helping, while keeping the parts that are, leaving you with a cleaner, more accurate sound.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \n\u003ch2 class=\"subhead margin\"\u003eDynamics\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDetail, clarity, accuracy, fidelity – these are words often thrown around to indicate the quality of sound, but what of the quantity? Recreating a live performance takes dynamics, or the ability to recreate quiet sounds, loud sounds, and everything in between. Let’s look at how the Founder Series recreates the broadest and most powerful dynamics.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIncreasing Useable Output by Decreasing Distortion \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll Founder’s technologies, from the drivers to the feet and everything in between, are engineered to reduce distortion and provide the most accurate sound possible. Studies have shown that listeners are more tolerant of high output levels when distortion is lower. This essentially proves that it’s the “noise” in the sound that bothers us, not necessarily the volume. For those that like it loud, Founder Series is full of technology that lowers distortion and raises the usable volume output. If you enjoy cranking it up, even just occasionally, Founder is an ideal solution, providing more natural, accurate, and pleasing sound not just at lower volumes but also when it’s time to rock out. Better sound all the time, this is the way.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHigh Output, High-Efficiency Components \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere is a famous quote that says, “Power is Nothing Without Control” and Paradigm couldn’t agree more. That’s why Paradigm designs speakers that sound clean, controlled, and detailed at any volume. Paradigm does this by making sure all driver components are designed for maximum power handling and output. If they can handle high output, everything else is a walk in the park. The voice coil and magnet structure are “where the rubber meets the road” as far as dynamics are concerned. These are the two critical components that actually move a speaker cone back and forth to produce sound. The Founder Series is designed with high power density magnets, high excursion cone surrounds, and multi-layered voice coils. Even the drivers’ cooling is addressed in order to keep everything composed even during the most demanding musical passages or intense action scenes. These parts are painstakingly engineered not only to handle more power but also to maintain strong control over the driver to further lower distortion and raise the maximum usable output. After all, if a speaker doesn’t sound good while playing loud, then it really can't play loud. In addition to designing the components for high output playback, Paradigm also paid attention to efficiency. In this case, that means packing as much performance as possible into a smaller space. Traditional wisdom says there is “no replacement for displacement” so to make a speaker play louder, it needs to be bigger. While it is true that large speakers generally handle higher volumes better than small ones, there is another solution: technology. Paradigm engineers came up with a way to increase the amount of usable cone area while fitting it into the same physical space. When manufacturers list woofer sizes (5.25”, 6.5” etc.) they usually measure across the frame of the woofer, not just the usable cone area. This can vary greatly from brand to brand. With Paradigm's exclusive “Vertical Mounting System”, Founder Series provides a more usable cone area in its 5.5”, 6”, 7” and 8” woofers than do competing designs advertising “larger” sizes. More output and less bulk can only be a good thing. Isn’t innovation wonderful?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBi-Amp capable + Hybrid Design \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll models in the Founder series can be Bi-amped or Bi-wired. That means two channels of amplification can be run to a single speaker. This not only provides a more direct connection to the components inside the speaker but raises the amount of power available to it. Taking it a step further, the Founder 120H includes an internal 1000-watt amplifier that powers the bass drivers. With this amp doing the heavy lifting, your amplifier is free to handle the mid and high frequencies with far less effort. This hybrid design not only improves the maximum output of the speaker but also allows us to fit this incredible performance into a smaller cabinet that’s designed as an integrated system. The 120H’s powerful amplifier can also take advantage of Paradigm's award-winning ARC Genesis room correction system for reference level accuracy regardless of the challenges presented by the room. Since ARC Genesis is part of the internal amp’s control system, it can be used with any brand of electronics you wish to connect.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e_____\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAL-MAC™ High-Frequency Driver \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Founder’s tweeter is a 1\" (25mm) Aluminum Magnesium Ceramic (AL-MAC™) dome with a proprietary Oblate Spherical Waveguide (OSW™) and a Perforated Phase-Aligning (PPA™) Lens.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAL-MAG™ Midrange Driver \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Founder’s midrange is a 6\" (152mm) Aluminum Magnesium (AL-MAG™) cone with Perforated Phase-Aligning (PPA™) Lens, Advanced SHOCK-MOUNT™ Isolation Mounting System, and a 2” high-temp multi-layered voice coil with ventilated Apical™ former.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUltra-High-Excursion AL-MAG™ Bass Midrange Driver ONLY on Founder Series 40B \u0026amp; 80F \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Founder’s mid\/bass driver (40B and 80F only) is a 6\"(152mm) Ultra-High-Excursion Aluminum Magnesium (AL-MAG™) cone with Perforated Phase-Aligning (PPA™) Lens, Gen3 Active Ridge Technology (ART™) Surround with Vertical Mounting System, Advanced SHOCK-MOUNT™ Isolation, and a 1.5” high-temp multi-layered voice coil with ventilated Apical™ former.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUltra-High-Excursion CARBON-X Unibody Bass Driver \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Founder’s Bass driver is a 6” (152mm), 7” (177mm) or 8” (215mm) Ultra-High-Excursion Unibody CARBON-X™ Cone, over-molded Gen3 Active Ridge Technology (ART™) Surround with Vertical Mounting System, Advanced SHOCK-MOUNT™ Isolation and a 1.5” high-temp multi-layered voice coil with ventilated Apical™ former.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBeautiful Premium-Grade Finishes \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFounder Series cabinets are offered in a variety of beautiful premium-grade finishes: Walnut and Black Walnut have a smooth satin finish with distinctive wood figuring.

It was specifically designed to bridge the gap between affordability and high-end performance. A notable feature of this series is the EVO AMT (Air Motion Transformer) high-frequency unit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\t\n\u003ch2 class=\"subhead margin\"\u003eA Distinctive Approach to High Frequencies\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\t\n\t\u003cp\u003eAMT Tweeter for Precision and Detail: In developing the new EVO 5 series, Wharfedale has further evolved the cutting-edge Air Motion Transformer (AMT). The AMT is a type of high-frequency driver used in speakers, known for its exceptional accuracy, speed, and low distortion compared to traditional dome treble units.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\t\n\t\u003cp\u003eInstead of using a conventional dome or cone to push air forward, an AMT uses a pleated diaphragm made of an ultra-thin, lightweight material (often a polymer film). Strong magnets are positioned on either side of the diaphragm, creating a powerful magnetic field. When an audio signal is passed through the conductive traces, the diaphragm is energized, causing the pleats to contract and expand. As the pleats move, they \"squeeze\" and \"expand\" the air between them, pushing it out in a highly controlled and efficient manner. This method allows the AMT to move four times more air than a traditional dome tweeter of the same surface area, leading to lower distortion (since the diaphragm moves less than a typical dome or ribbon), faster transient response (due to the lightweight material and minimal movement), wider frequency range and better dispersion.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 class=\"subhead margin\"\u003eAbsorption and Damping Enhancements\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\t\n\t\u003cp\u003eA new sound-absorbing material, Silentweave, has been added to the cavity behind the diaphragm to reduce sound wave reflection and sound coloration inside the speaker. This material, a combination of cotton and felt fiber, was specially developed for the EVO 5 series.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\t\n\t\u003cp\u003eAll EVO 5 drive units benefit from a new acoustic damping frame called ResoFrame, made from elastomer and visible as a cog-like shape within the driver’s front panel. In the case of the AMT, an additional elastomer damping gasket between the diaphragm and the front plate further reduces mechanical resonances and smooths the response, especially in the important lower treble band.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\t\n\t\u003cp\u003eThese internal acoustic enhancements minimize unwanted sound coloration, ensuring a purer, more natural sonic signature. This smoother treble response delivers a listening experience that is crisp, controlled, and devoid of harshness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\t\n\u003ch2 class=\"subhead margin\"\u003eLower-Midrange and Bass Refinements for Unparalleled Vocal Reproduction\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\t\n\t\u003cp\u003eEnhanced Midrange: A new technique, labeled Resoseal, sees a thin mass ring of elastomer applied to the rear of the cone where it meets the surround. This further optimizes midrange frequency response, allowing vocals to sound richer, more natural, and more emotionally engaging. This subtle yet critical enhancement ensures a refined and immersive listening experience.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\t\n\u003ch2 class=\"subhead margin\"\u003eReengineered Cabinetry for Superior Resonance Control\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\t\n\t\u003cp\u003eEach model in the EVO 5 series now features an optimally increased internal cabinet volume.

When combined, the channels act as an acoustic black hole, absorbing 99% of the unwanted sound that comes from the rear of the tweeter. This eliminates the resulting distortion for a purer, more natural acoustic performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003ch2 class=\"subhead margin\"\u003eSuperior KEF sound\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe latest 12th generation Uni-Q driver array with MAT is found in all eight models of the Q Series and delivers an incredibly detailed performance. It’s the result of decades of accumulated in-house knowledge and the application of state-of-the-art simulation and analysis tools. The developments are many and all play a part in the Q Series’ impressive performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Uni-Q driver array has been redesigned to maximize the performance improvements that MAT delivers. The conical waveguide that couples the tweeter dome to the metamaterial absorber has been specially designed for the driver based on its depth. The re-engineered tweeter gap damper strategically places two rings of porous material to tame the resonances and imperfections effectively, greatly improving detail and clarity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe tweeter motor system has been redesigned to maximize the transmission of energy from the rear of the tweeter to the MAT absorber. The area of the tweeter rear chamber vent is increased by 250%, allowing more sound to reach the metamaterial absorber and therefore its effectiveness. This also significantly reduces the acoustic pressure behind the dome, allowing the tweeter to operate more linearly leading to lower distortion still.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Flexible Decoupling Chassis first used on the flagship Blade and The Reference loudspeakers is employed on the Uni-Q driver array to dramatically reduce coloration of the sound caused by midrange vibration transmission to the cabinet, while also mitigating the potential of additional sound created by the driver basket that occurs with traditional decoupling methods. It works by decoupling the massive midrange motor from the Uni-Q chassis, dissipating its vibration before it can travel to the cabinet and be radiated as unwanted sound.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThese innovations combine to ensure the Q Series sounds more transparent and lifelike than ever.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003ch2 class=\"subhead margin\"\u003eAn extra half way\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe evolved Q Series has been upgraded from a 2.5-way to a 3-way speaker design. This updated configuration separates the frequency ranges, with the Uni-Q driver handling the high and midrange frequencies, and a newly designed bass driver dedicated to the low frequencies management.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe optimization of the drivers for their respective frequency bands allows the 12th Uni-Q driver to perform even better. By minimizing the motion of the mid-frequency cone, the tweeter can transmit high frequency sound over a smoother and more stable surface. This reduction in movement leads to a diminished distortion in the lower midrange frequencies, resulting in a significant improvement in detail and clarity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003ch2 class=\"subhead margin\"\u003eDeep and clean bass\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Q Series features a new bass driver design – a hybrid structure with a shallow, concave, aluminum skin atop a paper cone – gives stiffness to achieve a piston-like movement for better bass punch and speed. Combined with a 3D FEA-optimized surround geometry, this significantly improves linearity at higher excursions. This results in a precise and agile bass management even at high output.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAdditionally, the flared port, modelled with computational fluid dynamics, minimizes turbulence and reduces chuffing noise. This enables the ported speakers to produce bass that is cleaner and more controlled.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003ch2 class=\"subhead margin\"\u003eRefined crossover from 1000 measurements\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA critical component of the Q Series is the refined crossover, which ensures seamless integration of all speaker parts. To achieve this, KEF engineers take more than 1,000 specific measurements for each speaker model using a custom-built reference microphone array in their anechoic chamber in Maidstone, UK. These extensive on and off-axis measurements allow their team to thoroughly understand each model's acoustic interactions, enabling precise crossover design through advanced simulation and prototyping. This meticulous process draws from the development of the LS50 Meta and has been further enhanced through the creation of the latest Blade, The Reference and R Series, allowing each speaker model for precise signal path optimization and the best possible performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003ch2 class=\"subhead margin\"\u003eShadow Flare for improved clarity\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDerived from the flagship models, Shadow Flare is a further upgrade for the evolved Q Series. It reduces unwanted cabinet diffraction, allowing the 12th generation Uni-Q with MAT to work at its highest potential. Shadow Flare is a precision-designed surface that extends the waveguide effect of the Uni-Q driver array. This means the tweeter no longer has a line of sight to the cabinet edges, creating a ‘shadow region’ where the potential for diffraction is highest, minimizing the acoustic impact to negligible levels. The improved clarity and reproduction of fine details make listening a thrilling experience. Subtle nuances, such as the delicate brushwork on cymbals or the intricate overtones of a piano, are clearer on the Q Series.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003ch2 class=\"subhead margin\"\u003ePerfected for your enjoyment\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Q Series comprises eight distinct models.
