This Paradigm series has hit the mark. A departure from previous Paradigm speakers and at the same time bringing a spectacular level of detail and mid-range transparency at a truly entry level price point. Easy to drive, they have an effortless sense about them, if only shy a little in low end extension, we’re confident this will come with a good run in time.
And at the head of the table in the new Monitor SE series is the 8000F. A superb 5-driver,3-way floorstanding speaker with a frequency response between 45Hz – 21kHz. This speaker not only looks good but the sound is the real strength of this speaker.
Paradigm have gone for a no fuss design and finish, and have chosen to put the budget where it counts. A very simple but solid cabinet design, paired with an excellent tweeter, quality transparency and balance is preferred over a thumping bottom end.
Discover superior audio performance, without the cost
The stylish and affordable new Monitor SE Series is the perfect introduction to the world of high performance audio. Sure it’s packed with state-of-the-art technology, the kind of stuff only found on speakers that cost much more. But more important, the new Monitor SE Series is part of the Paradigm family of high performance loudspeakers, and just like all Paradigm loudspeakers it’s engineered to change the way you think and feel about your entertainment.
Built On Research
Monitor SE loudspeakers benefit from Paradigm’s fundamental research into the science of sound. This research, conducted by Paradigm in conjunction with the Canadian National Research Council, has resulted in many of the innovative materials and patented audio technologies found throughout the Paradigm speaker.
Realism in Audio
Imagine lifelike musical performance in any listening space; breathtaking effects and realistic imaging details that bring your movies to life.
Tweeter
X-PAL™ Pure-Aluminum Dome Tweeters with patented† Perforated Phase-Aligning (PPA™) Lens. This exclusive design acts as a refined phase plug, blocking a wide range of out-of-phase frequencies which increases and smooths output without coloring the sound. Both visually stunning and functional, our signature PPA Lens technology improves performance while also protecting the tweeter from getting damaged.
