Summary:
I am just startign to build my system, and have done plenty of research. i have listened to monitor audio, paradigm, klipsch, kef, galio, polk, infinity, bose......... so on. i am doing a monitor audio gold system, i am picking my gold reference 10's in a few days, but i don't make a lot of money and i needed a center that sounded great, but for under 100 dollars. i have a 6 channel receiver so after i get a monitor audio gold reference center, i will put the paradigm as a back center. i compared the paradigm directly to an older sonance 400 dollar center and the paradigm was far crisper, less muddy. the only place where im not impressed with them are bass in low toned voices. when watching too fast too furious,vin diesel's voice didn't sould right, you couldn't feel it, but for a 100 bucks this thing is awsome! it actually handles my sr 6400 fairly well and is light and easy to move from room to room testing different systems. definatly the best center for under 100 dollars. i have the newest model which has the paradigm monitor series drivers so if you do buy this makesure it is the newest model with see through mid bass cones

Strengths:
price, clarity, size, smoothness of sound

Weaknesses:
no bass, and noticable in low voices.

Summary:
After reviewing many different speakers for a room of smaller size These speakers caught my eye. The entire set including a set of Cinema 90's and Cinema ADP's and two Cinema CC with stands cost me about 700.00 the sub offered with the package would have put me at 900.00. For price, package, quality, and you look you just can't beat Paradigm Cinema Series. The sound delivered is larger than life for the minute size of these small satelite speakers. Whether listening to music, movies, DTS, Dolby Digital, 5.1, 6.1 you won't be let down. These speakers keep on pounding and pushing the limits. My dad has a hella large paradigm home theatre in which he has almost 7000 invested in speakers. This system does an outstanding job in comparison!!! I believe that of course there are limitations with them but for those of us who have small houses or are looking for computer speakers you can't beat these!

Strengths:
Small, Unique Design Powerful yet Resonably priced

Weaknesses:
Sometimes a little tinny as they say
