Pros: Quality material, flat frequency response, five-way binding posts, reasonable price.

The Bottom Line: If you have any questions, e-mail me. I will reply.

Pros: Small! Very reasonable price! Big natural sound! Real bass is smooth! Attractive well built cabinets!
Cons: Bass is not extended into lower regions. Other comparable speakers attain slightly better Power Handling.
The Bottom Line: There are wonderful small speakers being crafted these days. The Paradigm Atoms for their small asking price are among the finest!

Pros: Excellent value for a small bookshelf speaker
Cons: A little bit large for a surround for space-minded folk
The Bottom Line: Excellent sound with good bass response from a small speaker, and it is the perfect surround speaker for the rest of us who don't have a theater in their home!

Pros: VERY low cost, excellent performance, and surprising bass response.
Cons: Destroys your perception of the value you got for your "main system" speakers.
The Bottom Line: It's hard to imagine a better value (VERY good sound for under $150 per pair) than these beauts!

Pros: Amazing sound that compares with the best speakers on the market at a great price.

The Bottom Line: The perfect small speakers to pair with a subwoofer for amazingly clear sound.

Pros: Very well-balanced sound, excellent midrange, high value
Cons: A bit light on bass, but understandable given the size & price constraints
The Bottom Line: While perhaps not a 5-star speaker as compared to $5000+ audiophile speakers, the Atoms offer great performance for the dollar. Best sub-$250 speaker I've ever heard.
