Paradigm Founder 100F Floorstanding Speaker (each)
5-driver, 3-way floorstanding speaker • AL-MAC™ tweeter with OSW™ waveguide and PPA™ lens • 6" AL-MAG™ midrange • triple 7" Carbon-X unibody bass drivers • ported enclosure • premium Founder Series engineering
Meet the Founder 100F
The Paradigm Founder 100F Floorstanding Speaker (each) is a premium 3-way tower built for listeners who want scale, control, and refinement in equal measure. Positioned within Paradigm’s Founder Series, it combines advanced driver materials, careful resonance control, and a highly engineered ported enclosure to deliver strong dynamics, deep bass extension, and a clean, composed presentation that feels equally at home with serious two-channel listening and high-end home theater systems.
This is a true full-range floorstanding loudspeaker created for systems where resolution, bass authority, and effortless output all matter.
Highlights & Benefits
- True 3-way architecture — a dedicated tweeter, dedicated midrange, and three bass drivers allow the speaker to distribute work more effectively across the frequency range.
- Advanced high-frequency design — the 1" AL-MAC™ ceramic dome tweeter uses Paradigm’s Oblate Spheroid Waveguide and Perforated Phase-Aligning lens for more controlled dispersion and cleaner detail retrieval.
- Dedicated aluminum-magnesium midrange — the 6" AL-MAG™ cone driver is built to preserve clarity, body, and vocal realism through the critical middle frequencies.
- Serious bass capability — three 7" Carbon-X unibody bass drivers support strong low-frequency extension, scale, and dynamic control.
- High sensitivity and broad amplifier compatibility — with 93dB room sensitivity and compatibility with 8-ohm amplifiers, the design is flexible enough for a wide range of high-quality electronics.
- Premium cabinet engineering — advanced shock-mount systems, vibration control, and careful enclosure design help preserve low-level detail and imaging stability.
Technology & Design
Founder Series driver platform — Paradigm equips this model with an AL-MAC™ tweeter, AL-MAG™ midrange, and Carbon-X bass drivers to create a speaker that is fast, revealing, and dynamically capable across a wide frequency range.
Waveguide and lens integration — the proprietary OSW™ waveguide and PPA™ lens technologies are intended to improve driver behavior, dispersion control, and perceived clarity in the listening room.
Shock-mount isolation and cabinet control — advanced decoupling and cabinet engineering help reduce unwanted mechanical energy, allowing the speaker to sound more composed and more revealing at both moderate and higher playback levels.
In a properly matched system, the Paradigm Founder 100F Floorstanding Speaker (each) delivers the kind of scale, control, and tonal sophistication expected from a serious modern reference tower.
