Other than it being a signature (sculptural) piece of the early 50s, I had thought audio design had gone way beyond its technologies.
Pretty sure you can do a lot better sound-wise, with more modern designs and drivers, if you are in it for the music ...
Of course, a factory Paragon is a gorgeous wooden statement piece, no doubt about that.

a) The sculpture - Search the forum for a plan, but the German site seems to be off.Ambitious to be certain ... but wondering
b) The bass horn -look here.
c) The Soundstage - What about two S2600 or S3100 side by side?

I have built several Paragons,,,The trick is making the curved panel,,,needing to make a jig to hold the panel when laminating the curved layers... the legs were done on a cnc by a gunstock manufacture. Hard to tell from the origional. But now useing TAD components can improve its sound...
My answer to that is why not?
