Summary:
I have owned a pair of Paradigm Active 20's for 10 years and have always raved about them, as have many visitors who have heard them. In that time, I've constantly been on the lookout for another pair on ebay, but apparently no one ever sells them. So one fine day, while checking out ebay, i come across a pair of Paradigm Monitor P90's for $799. (US) I knew I'd have to move ny Active 20's to a smaller room, in order to accomodate the P90's. While I was thinking it over, some evil person bought them out from under me :-( Well, I head off for some fun and sun in LA and when I return a week later, what do I see on ebay? My p90's!!! The evil buyer lost his job and couldn't pay for them, so I offered $700. (US) and won these GREAT speakers. I didn't think it possible, but they are even clearer and more detailed than the Active 20's. The high, midrange and bass are all distinguishable without being harsh. The sound imaging is amazing. Sometimes I'll stand directly in front of one speaker and still be able to hear an instrument eminating from the other speaker 10 feet away! I don't know why Paradigm no longer makes these speakers, but I'm sure glad I have a pair.

Summary:
I love it. My favourit album is The Gaucho album ,and this is sounding more like that one than all the released album since then. 2 against nature became a commercial hit and that was good Their luck and ours.Otherwise ,who knows what would have happened. In 2 against nature I personally think something profound was missing This new one on the other hand has "got the news". It tells me it aint over until the fat lady sings. Some of the melodies I recognice from elsewhere,like the verse in Godwhacker...Prince´s "Sign `O the times".. and the saxophone sounds like Liza Simpsons,but I can buy that

Summary:
Imagine yourself driving down the road in the family Plymouth , there is a lumber truck in front of you that you need to pass you gently pull into the passing lane and push down on the throttle,the G forse molds your back into the vinyl seat as the 426 cubic inch Hemi roars to life you go from 30mph to 80 mph in what seems like a heastbeat. This is an example of whatthe Paradigm 90p floor speakers will do for your sound system. While listening to some old Steely Dan cd's recently I was amazed at at the sounds I was hearing! Instruments and back up vocals I had never noticed before were pronounced with crystal clear detail. The music took on a life of its own as my ears were treated to a rich smooth,full sound with a clarity I have not heard before in floor speakers. Many people will tell you that you just need to buy some speakers then get a sub woofer. My responce to this is that the 90p's get by on a modest amount of power because of thier built in amplifiers. I hope you have money to burn you will need it to buy an expensive Amp or Preamp to drive your new power hungry system. The Paradigm 90p has its own controls so you can adjust the amount of base you want in addition to the base controls most recievers have so there is no problems setting the base to a level that suits the listener. Speaking of base these puppies have it to spare. For movies say like in the battle scenes on the beach in " Saving Private Ryan" Each 90p speaker has three 8" carbon-infused bass drivers that recreated the thunder and rumble of the battle scenes with spine tingling realism. The base was very tight and crisp while the ferro cooled mid range speaker brought out the grunting groaning and even the heavy breathing of the men as they stuggle up the beach with thier heavy gear. The High Frequency Driver or Tweeter gave the whistling mortars and zinging bullets frightening realism minus the fatigue most cheaper Tweeters will leave you with. I apologize for the theatrics of this review it is a poor attempt to describe on paper what the Paradigm 90p speakers can do for an action movie like the one previously described. You can not go wrong with these speakers or any other Paradigm speakers the way I see it. Do yourself a favor and audition these or any of the Paradigm speakers. I do not work for Paradigm I am just an inspired customer. The best single word that comes to mind to sum up the Paradigm 90p floor speakers is "Awesome" but check them out for your self

Strengths:
Powerful tight rich,depth of sound with smooth clarity and sharp detail.

Weaknesses:
I know Paradigm can offer some spikes for a wood or tile floor but they dont. The spikes they have are good for carpet but can be murder to a wood floor.

Summary:
I replaced my (what i thought was) adequeate Cerwin-vegas with these Paradigms. OH-MY-GOD I can say that I do not go around and listen to speakers alot, but these are awesome. Sepereat line in for the sub portion -which completly replaced my seperate sub. (now for sale) I have them set a half and the rumble the room. I am hearing things I have never heard before in movies and CD's. VERY heavy though. i think someone said 81 pounds- they are all of that. My only complaint is that i cant afford to buy the center and rears right now! I compared them to the paradigm 11's- these kick their ass to the curb.

Strengths:
Extraordinary bass and highs in one package. buy a pair of these and skip the seperate sub!

Weaknesses:
heavy
