BERUFSBEWERTUNGEN & AUSZEICHNUNGEN

Combine the Cinema Sub with three Cinema 200s and a pair (or quartet) of Cinema 100s (or a full set of 100s for smaller rooms), throw in an Anthem MRX receiver, and you've got the makings of a truly audiophile system that sounds as sumptuous with stereo material as with surround music and movies... Paradigm's newly updated Cinema series speakers boast the sort of dynamics that you just don't expect at this size and price point.

Sure, they're detailed. Incredibly so. Yes, they're wonderfully tonally balanced... What really sets this system apart is its downright thrilling capacity for dynamic range... Even in the quietest of moments, the speaker never fails to positively teleport the subtlest of sounds into the room, with no loss of frequency dynamics or detail. Yet push them into positively scary territory moments later, and they never exhibit the sort of distortion and loss of clarity that has your brain screaming. 'Oh em gee, turn it down! Turn it down!'' The Cinema 200 also boasts so much mass for its size.

A 5.5-inch surround with carbon-infused polypropylene cone with a larger PPA lens handles the midrange frequency driver, and two 5.5-inch ART surround polypropylene cones provide the bottom end.
