Paradigm SA-25 Reference In-Wall Speakers Conclusion
It has been awhile since I’ve reviewed a Paradigm speaker
but I’m glad I’ve had the chance to check out the SA-25 in-walls as it made me
realize just how far the company has advanced its sound over the last decade or
so. The SA-25s are among the best
sounding compact in-walls I’ve heard and they will certainly satisfy even the most
critical audiophile. The SA-25s would serve well for critical two-channel
listening for the front channels or as a matching pair of surround speakers
too.
When you buy a speaker from Paradigm, you can rest assured that you will be getting a highly engineered product based on sound science and quality materials. Spending time with the SA-25’s left me desperately wanting to check out some of their high end boxed speaker offerings.

The Score Card
The scoring below is based on each piece of equipment doing the duty it is designed for. The numbers are weighed heavily with respect to the individual cost of each unit, thus giving a rating roughly equal to:
Performance × Price Factor/Value = Rating
Audioholics.com note: The ratings indicated below are based on subjective listening and objective testing of the product in question. The rating scale is based on performance/value ratio. If you notice better performing products in future reviews that have lower numbers in certain areas, be aware that the value factor is most likely the culprit. Other Audioholics reviewers may rate products solely based on performance, and each reviewer has his/her own system for ratings.
