a coherent ambient environment ... compelling ... a real sense of being outdoors ... As characters walk away from the center, their voices trail off farther and farther to either side ... you instinctively look to see where they went ... incredible ... whimsical ... smoothly integrated

Paradigm Studio ADP Speakers
Optimised Radiation Patterns
Paradigm ADP surround/rear speakers use optimised radiation patterns to provide the superior wide bandwidth reverberant sound for which Paradigm ADP’s are renowned. Both are timbre-matched with all other speakers in the same series to ensure superior performance for music and home theatre.
Dipole Speakers
Sound Emanates From Different Sides
In a dipole speaker, drivers are mounted on both sides of the speaker, these drivers push air outward at the same time so that the sound emanates from different sides of the speaker. This helps to spreading the sound energy to create a wider field of sound for rear and/or surround effects.
