Paradigm Monitor 5 v.4 Bookshelf speakers

These Canadian monitors can't be called bookshelf - what kind of shelf is needed for 60 cm of height and over 12 kg of weight! It is better to fork out for quality racks. Paradigm Monitor 5 v.4 are built by the 2.5-way principle: a separate 16-cm woofer with a diffuser, reinforced with carbon fibers, works up to 400 Hz, and a mid-woofer of the same size, made of high-molecular polymer, activates higher (both with cast baskets). The branded PDT tweeter with the lightest titanium dome has a diffuser for suppressing a burst of amplitude-frequency response above 16-20 kHz, and at the same time for expanding the polar pattern. The cases of these monitors are finished without any frills, but they are acoustically damped. As you can see, everything is very economical, not for beauty, but for sound.

The sound causes the same associations: the acoustics perfectly "read" the rhythmic musical basis, reproduces the bass realistically and powerfully, without humming. The middle is detailed and not embellished. In principle, the upper band is transmitted smoothly, if you do not take into account the slight emphasis on the highest frequencies, because of which the sibilants are slightly dried, but the room atmosphere is better manifested. The scale is set correctly in the scene. Focus and the separation of plans are without anomalies too.
