Paradigm Shift™ announces three new earbuds for high-end audio on the go.
Toronto, ON – September 14, 2011 – Paradigm Shift™, the new brand launched by Paradigm Electronics Inc.,  an international leader in speaker design and manufacturing, announces  three new earbuds engineered in the company’s Canadian factory. The E1,  E2m and E3m are the first personal audio products available from  Paradigm Shift.
With 30 years of sound research, development and manufacturing, the  Paradigm brand has always been synonymous with high quality audio at a  value and Paradigm Shift is no different. Unlike almost every other  speaker or headphone manufacturer, Paradigm has its own audio research  and development facility complete with a 36,000-cubic-foot anechoic  chamber to take accurate sound measurements and multiple double blind  listening rooms to test every product produced. Paradigm Shift employs  the same stringent testing and quality control on earbuds as Paradigm  does on its flagship Reference speakers.
Designed for portable personal audio, PC and gaming, the E1, E2m  and E3m earbuds were built for comfort without sacrificing performance.  All three are available in black and white finishes and feature an air  tight seal for superb noise isolation, three sizes of tips for ears of  all sizes, a tangle-resistant 1.2 meter cord and a padded travel  case/pouch for protection. The E2m and E3m models also feature an  in-line remote and microphone that allow users to pause and play music  as well as answer and disconnect telephone calls with one easy click.
“We’ve taken every possible step to ensure the new Paradigm Shift  earbuds stand out in the over-crowded, over-hyped world of personal  audio,” said Mark Aling director of marketing for Paradigm Shift.  “Considering the depth of research and expertise our engineers put into  performance, aesthetics and comfort, Paradigm Shift will quickly earn  its place as an elite audio brand, inspiring a new generation of audio  enthusiasts.”
