Paradigm is a company in Canada, they make speakers... Now who has ever heard of Paradigm, or Canada (Joking). Well, at least who has ever heard of speakers being made in Canada. Well, I have heard of Paradigm, but I never thought that their quality...

Pros: Solid. Put you on stage and in the studio. Breathtaking.
Cons: Average looks, unless the grills are removed.

I have evaluated many speaker models and makers in the past few days, but none filled me with as much awe as the Paradigm Monitor 9. I've listened to Infinity's Reference series, PSB Century and Image series, Energy tower speakers, Polk RT series, and...

Pros: Great sound quality, especially for the price.
Cons: Placement sensitive : you might have to tweak a little bit here.

After a few of weeks of serious listening, going through most of my CD pile (about anything from classical to baroque to jazz to rock and even some "popular" stuff at the exception of Celine Dion - Help me, God), I can say that I'm still quite satisfied ...

I have had my Monitor 9's (version 1) for five years now and love them. Here is my review. First Impressions: It's been a few years, but I recall my initial impressions were, "They don't image extremely well and one speaker came with stripped socke ...

Pros: quality for price
Cons: may have to travel farther to get them

The monitor 9's are a true example of high quality at a reasonable price. I compared them to the mind boggling number of other speakers available in the $500-750 price range and these not only came out on top but held their own right next to any of the...

Pros: Sound, Price, Durability
Cons: None so far

I have been using this model of speaker for the last 2-3 yrs. and am still occasionally amazed at what they can do. I bought my pair for approx. $450US, which was cheaper than most of the others I was checking out when I bought, and they even sounded...

Pros: Amazing clarity, good range, fair price
Cons: None

To start, I must say that the Monitor 9 is a truly amazing speaker. It blows away most of the competition and even blows away the Monitor 7's. Monitor 9 is the top end of the Paradigm family.

Hooked up at a good system, these speakers will...

Pros: Deep powerful bass and clarity with a awesome soundstage.
Cons: Can be a little bright(for my taste)in small rooms.

I was actually looking for some decent main speakers for my denon(1803) receiver. I was planing on a low budget and was having plans of getting energy c-3 or jbl-s38 as mains. Then i saw these big beasts at sale. I heard them connected to a sunfire amp a ...

Pros: Clean, Full sound, realistic highs
Cons: Large, heavy

The Paradigm Monitor 9 speakers provide a warm, full sound while maintaining the high-frequency precision required of a critical listener. When I was shopping for main speakers I listened to more than twenty different models and brands of speakers, and...

Pros: Great balance, good extension (bass and treble)
Cons: Bright

These are definitely good all-around speakers. They have solid bass, a decent midrange, and a sparkling treble. I've heard people say that they sound boomy, but in my medium-sized room, the bass is just about right (maybe even a little too light in...

Pros: Good sound quality, and styling.
Cons: These speakers are extremeley hard to find.

Cons: Hard to find

I've had my Monitor 9 for some 2 years now, and I'm very pleased with the sound. When I was out shopping for speakers, I has B&W on my first place, but after listening to Paradigm in the store, I was convinced to try them a few days. The first thing that...

Pros: Built Quality, Excellent Sound
Cons: None

I see many speakers for replace my cheap front Technics. SB-A38 cost about US$250 in Chile. For US$420 buy the excellent Paradigm Monitor 9 and the change are a new experience in audio quality.

The first days are great but at third day the...
