Paradigm Monitor SE Atom Speakers – Its actually quite tricky these days to find a reasonably priced speaker which actually sounds excellent. Step forward the Paradigm Monitor Atom SE’s. The star of the show is actually the X-PAL™ Pure-Aluminium 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 colouring the sound.
