Paradigm Persona BvsFocal Sopra N°1

The Paradigm Persona B stands 43.5 cm tall — about 1.0 cm more than the Focal Sopra N°1 at 42.5 cm. On footprint the Focal Sopra N°1 is the wider cabinet (25.2 cm versus 23.1 cm). The Focal Sopra N°1 reaches deeper in the bass, down to 45 Hz versus 60 Hz. Low frequencies come from a 178 mm cone on the Paradigm Persona B and a 165 mm cone on the Focal Sopra N°1. Both land in a similar price bracket, around $9,500 a pair.
