GENEVA SOUND SYSTEM

I`ve been looking for a Micro System for some time now, that would accommodate a number of areas..
  • It had to be small & easy on the eye
  • It had to sound AWESOME !
  • It had to not only fit into our Kitchen setting, but also, have the ability to be moved outside
  • It had to accommodate my iPhone/iPod, but also have a FM tuner
  • It had to be One piece
Well I found it !! & it`s not BOSE !! it`s GENEVA !! This "puppy" rocks !! Sounds & Looks AMAZING !! & like Sammy says...I bought one !!

PARADIGM DRIVERS


HIGH FREQUENCY DRIVERS

High-frequency drive units provide outstanding extended frequency response, while Controlled Waveguide™ faceplates and grilles ensure exceptionally uniform high-frequency response throughout a wide listening window.
Dome materials vary from silk to the ultimate-in-performance pure beryllium domes employed in our majestic Signature Series tweeters. Whatever the material used in the dome however, the high-frequency performance of Paradigm tweeters is recognized by its hallmark integrity of the upper harmonics, uncanny accuracy and articulation … all a decided advantage in this era of extended bandwidth.
High-temperature voice coils, aluminum formers, ferro-fluid cooling and oversized magnets ensure high thermal capacity and power handling and permit the use of lower crossover points for superior off-axis response, lower distortion and longer service life.
 
BASS / MID RANGE DRIVERS

 
Bass/midrange drive units deliver remarkably coloration-free response. High-pressure die-cast aluminum chassis, boasting our AVS Airflow Ventilation System cooling, boost power handling and ensure ultra-low distortion and exceptional reliability. The aluminum also prevents ringing and flexing while serving double duty as an effective heat sink.
Advanced cone materials ensure smooth, uniform response. Nomex® spiders and surrounds in a number of highly effective base materials foster linear excursion, minimizing compliance-induced distortion. High-hysteresis butyl suspensions eliminate "edge-hole" distortion. High-temperature wire on multi-layer voice coils and Apical™ or Kapton® formers ensure sonic accuracy and improve long-term reliability. Metallized high-integrity dust caps are shaped to promote wide, uniform off-axis dispersion. FEA-optimized, magnetic pole pieces and metal top plates support extended cone excursion.
Focused-field magnetic assemblies ensure low distortion and consistent frequency response, even at high output levels.

High-Frequency Drivers
High-frequency drive units provide outstanding extended frequency response while proprietary WaveGuide™ faceplates and sound-grilles ensure exceptionally uniform high-frequency response throughout a wide listening window. High-temperature voice coils, aluminum formers, Ferro-fluid cooling and powerful oversized magnets ensure high thermal capacity and power handling, and permit the use of lower crossover points for superior off-axis response, lower distortion and longer service life.

Bass/Midrange Drivers
Bass/midrange drive units deliver remarkably coloration-free response. High-pressure die-cast aluminum or injection-molded chassis eliminate ringing and flexing, and function as heat sinks. Advanced cone materials ensure smooth, uniform response. High-hysteresis butyl suspensions eliminate “edge-hole” distortion. High-temperature, multi-layer voice coils and high-quality formers ensure sonic accuracy and improve long-term reliability. Focused-field magnet assemblies ensure low distortion and consistent frequency response, even at high output levels

Crossover Networks
Multi-element frequency- and phase-coherent crossover networks are purpose-designed for each model. High-power close-tolerance components are hand-selected for greater accuracy.
Some models can be bi-wired or bi-amplified

Enclosures
Paradigm speaker enclosures use acoustically inert high-density or medium density hardboard and strategically located radial braces as needed to limit unwanted resonances, increase enclosure stiffness and prevent “ballooning” effects. Acoustic damping material eliminates internal standing waves. Low-diffraction grilles minimize interference from enclosure edges. High-velocity low-noise ports allow maximum bass efficiency with minimum turbulence distortion.

Subwoofer Amplifiers
patented, high-power, high-current subwoofer amplifiers, including leading-edge digital designs boasting superior efficiency, ensure full power delivery at all times. Precision-engineered components and dual-sided, multi-layered military-spec (FR4-rated) glass-epoxy circuit boards with plated through-holes ensure superior performance and reliability.

CHICKEN & SAUSAGE PAELLA

The Bearz Chicken & Sausage Paella

Driving Nancy to work this morning, she mentioned she had a "yen" for this for dinner tonight.
This Dish is loved by the whole "Familia", yet it`s so quick & simple to prep, & cook....
