RECENSIONI E PREMI PROFESSIONALI

The Paradigm Monitor SE 2000C is a fine centre channel speaker that finds a good balance between physical size and sonic presence. But it really needs to be considered in the broader context of a surround system, where partnering it with the 6000Fs or even their slightly smaller brethren will guarantee a consistency of voice and tonal character that is at the core of its appeal. Adding Paradigm Surround 3s or even Monitor SE bookshelves for the surround and back channels should make for a cohesive, immersive and enjoyable multichannel performance – without breaking the bank.

How did PARADIGM make the MONITOR SE SPEAKERS sound so good, but cost so little? Sure, you could buy these for a secondary home theater room, but they sound so good, you might be tempted to replace your primary system with these...I don’t know how they put their better speaker technology into these and yet kept them affordable, but Paradigm has designed the uncommon speaker system for the common man. Recommended!

If your speaker budget tops out in the $2,000 range and you seek maximum bang for the buck, take note: Paradigm's Monitor SE system delivers the home theater sound basics in a brilliant manner.

For us, the Paradigm Monitor / Atom with the Defiance V10 is a new reference here on the editorial board, in the category “best home cinema sound everyone can afford.

It brings back the “what matters most” of the hobby: People enjoying music and movies, not sweating whether their gear sounds good… because it does. At Paradigm they seem to remember that’s the goal, and with the Monitor SE series, they achieve it. It’s a Top Choice for a an “affordable premium” speaker system.

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.
