Founder 100F should be here this week and MC452 next week :)

Starting with the man in the mirror is the best option most of the time. So, if becoming someone that has access to 8 or more digits portfolio is something you wish for, than its logical you get on track to devise a plan to start climbing towards reaching your goals, that is - wishes taken seriously and personally at deep level, that you are serious about materializing. Kicking it off with better grammar even on a y.t video comment is good starting point as well, than work on some source of income to get an initial absolutely modest hifi set up(if you don't have one already) as well as absorbing knowledge and working hard towards your goal and yourselfe, every moment of every day till you hit it out of that park !!! Yes, honest advice! Not just some plain sarcasm. Its possible. Thirty some years ago, when I was a kid, my family barely had decent or comfortable place to live or plentiful good food, don't even think about a hifi gear. I to was engulfed in similar mindset as you, at least as in your comment. Until I woke up in my early teens and realized that if the going is tough, the tough needs to get going! ( yes thats frm a Billy Ocean song, but it applies for the point) Hence my lenghty reply to someone I recognized as young me. Now a set up on a level as in this video is something completely insignificant - as in, its just in some of the apartments I have legal, private access to in multiple countries. Set up on the level of, lets say range topping Gryphon is where the real significant attention starts. Cheers, take care, be well and get there asap!

I agree! I love Paradigm. I have top of the line of the top of the line even for my rear channels :) I may just hand these over to my son for his bedroom system and eventually buy Bang & Olufsen Beolab 90. Those are amazing. My father in law has high end Bang & Olufsen speakers and I do like them. I spent 2 years listening around before settling on Paradigm. It was an easy decision.

what did you decide (as the 120s already have deep bass via D Class amplifiers). I have some 100s coming but I didn't think subs were necessary with the 120s?

so far I’m listening stereo without subs , and movies with subs … hard to say without having these subs in set , overall sounding amazing without subs ! but pretty sure subs will make it better

You can have them shipped directly from Paradigm also if you don't have a dealer in your area.

I think there’s a way to get license to use song. I’ve seen others do it as well.

и синтетики многовато... за такие бабки дрова, как и все Парадигмы

True. this video sounds very audiophile on my Logitech Z333 2.1 with marble under the sub ;) And angled satelites. And $160 dac. Very very audiophile, in fact on par with Sonus Faber $1000 pair of monitors. And only less effortless vs $30k Focals. Besides, who do you listen with is far more important....
