Paradigm Décor 1S v2 Custom-Length Stereo Soundbar for Seamless TV Audio

The Paradigm Décor 1S v2 Custom-Length Stereo Soundbar delivers dedicated left- and right-channel audio from a single, elegant enclosure built to complement the exact width of a television or display. Designed for installations where conventional speakers would interrupt the room's appearance, the Décor 1S v2 combines Paradigm's high-performance loudspeaker engineering with a clean, architectural form.

Unlike an all-in-one powered soundbar, the Décor 1S v2 is a passive loudspeaker designed to connect to a compatible stereo amplifier, integrated amplifier, or AV receiver. Its internally separated left and right channels create a true stereo presentation, providing greater image width, musical separation, and dialogue clarity than the speakers built into a television.

Each stereo channel incorporates its own 1-inch X-PAL™ satin-anodized pure-aluminum dome tweeter with a Perforated Phase-Aligning PPA™ lens. Length-dependent arrays of 4.5-inch anodized aluminum unibody bass/midrange drivers provide the radiating area needed for clear vocals, controlled bass, and dynamic television and music playback.

The Paradigm Décor 1S v2 Custom-Length Stereo Soundbar is individually crafted to suit the specified installation. By coordinating the enclosure length with the display, the speaker appears visually integrated rather than added as an afterthought, making it an excellent choice for living rooms, media spaces, bedrooms, and custom television installations.

A rigid extruded-aluminum enclosure helps control resonance while maintaining an exceptionally shallow profile. Recessed connections and integrated cable-management provisions support a neat on-wall installation with speaker wiring concealed behind or around the cabinet.

Whether used for television, movies, streaming music, or everyday listening, the Paradigm Décor 1S v2 Custom-Length Stereo Soundbar provides a refined alternative to separate left and right speakers without sacrificing genuine stereo reproduction or the flexibility of a component-based audio system.

Technology & Performance

Revamped Décor v2 Acoustic Platform — Paradigm redesigned the Décor Collection around updated tweeters, PPA™ lenses, aluminum unibody bass/midrange drivers, and a new extrusion profile. These improvements provide greater clarity, stronger bass performance, and improved power handling while preserving the collection's slim architectural design.

Independent Left and Right Channels — The Décor 1S v2 contains two electrically separate speaker systems within one enclosure. Each channel receives its own amplifier signal, allowing the soundbar to reproduce genuine stereo information rather than combining both channels into a mono presentation.

X-PAL™ Satin-Anodized Pure-Aluminum Tweeters — Each channel uses a dedicated 1-inch X-PAL™ dome tweeter. The lightweight aluminum construction provides the rigidity and responsiveness needed to reproduce fine musical detail, dialogue articulation, and high-frequency soundtrack effects.

Perforated Phase-Aligning PPA™ Lenses — The precisely formed lenses positioned in front of the tweeters protect the delicate domes while functioning as phase-aligning devices. Their perforated patterns help smooth acoustic output and improve high-frequency consistency throughout the listening area.

Anodized Aluminum Unibody Bass/Midrange Cones — The 4.5-inch drivers use rigid aluminum diaphragms engineered to behave as controlled pistons through their operating range. Their combination of low mass and structural stiffness supports clean transients, intelligible vocals, and detailed midrange reproduction.

Nitrile-Butadiene Rubber Surrounds — Durable NBR surrounds allow the bass/midrange cones to move freely while maintaining precise control. Their compliant construction supports useful low-frequency output within the shallow sealed enclosure.

High-Temperature Voice Coils — Robust voice-coil assemblies help manage heat during demanding music and television playback. This contributes to improved reliability, dynamic performance, and power handling from the compact driver arrays.

Length-Dependent Acoustic Configuration — Because the Décor 1S v2 is custom manufactured, the number and arrangement of bass/midrange drivers can vary according to the selected cabinet length. Paradigm configures the internal driver arrays to preserve separate left and right sections while matching the visual dimensions of the display.

Channel-Specific Crossover Networks — Each stereo channel includes its own crossover network to integrate the X-PAL™ tweeter with its associated bass/midrange drivers. This maintains the electrical and acoustic separation required for proper stereo reproduction.

Acoustic-Suspension Alignment — The sealed enclosure provides controlled low-frequency behavior without requiring rear or front bass ports. This makes the soundbar well suited to close-wall installations and helps maintain clean transient response.

Rigid Extruded-Aluminum Enclosure — Aluminum construction provides a stable foundation for the driver assemblies while resisting the panel flex and resonance that can color sound. It also allows Paradigm to achieve a slimmer enclosure than many conventional speaker designs.

Aluminum Front Baffle — The solid front baffle securely supports each driver and helps reduce unwanted mechanical movement. A stable mounting surface allows the drivers to convert more of the amplifier's energy into controlled acoustic output.

Near-Flush Wall Installation — Recessed and angled speaker terminals help maintain cable clearance behind the enclosure. Integrated wire routing keeps speaker cables organized and reduces the likelihood of pinching during installation.

Component-System Flexibility — Because the Décor 1S v2 is passive, system performance can be tailored through the choice of amplifier, receiver, source components, subwoofer, and room correction. It can serve as the foundation of a streamlined stereo system or operate as the left and right channels of a larger home theater.

Enhanced Stereo Television Sound — Dedicated left and right channels increase separation between effects, music, and voices compared with typical television speakers. The broad enclosure also allows the acoustic image to better correspond with the width of the screen.

Optional Subwoofer Integration — Pairing the soundbar with a powered Paradigm subwoofer extends low-frequency performance for movies and music while reducing bass demands on the compact on-wall drivers.
