Even at low volume they fill my listening space more than adequetly and are outstanding at normal listening levels.Īnother surprise is how musical these speakers are. I am also impressed with their clarity, accurracy and bass response, something I hadn't expected in a dipole speaker of this size. The soundfield of the ADP-370's is much more enveloping and has notably greater depth than the Kefs they replaced.
SURROUND SOUND REFERENCE MONITOR SPEAKER PLUS
My primary use of rear surrounds is for DPL when watching TV and video tape (60%), plus some DD/dts when watching DVDs (10%) and music (30%). Two months ago these dipole speakers replaced a pair of 5 year old direct radiating Kef Uni-Q bookshelves that I had been using for rear surrouds and I am very happy with my choice. I can't wait to get a DVD audio player and put the adp350's to the test. A wonderfull surround speaker at a fair price.
SURROUND SOUND REFERENCE MONITOR SPEAKER DRIVERS
It is a seamless match and the fact that the adp350 uses the same drivers as the mini monitor,monitor 5, and monitor 7 makes it a very flexible surround speaker if you are using a monitor series speaker from Paradigm. I am currently using a 7.1 set up, with the Mini monitors as the rear surround speakers. One of the greatest Attributes of the adp350's is the fact that they are a very musical speaker for being a surround speaker, which could prove to be a very good thing when DVD audio heads into the mainstream. If properly calibrated, the adp350's disapear in the background and add realism to your DVD's. I was using a set of Bose 301's for the surround, as the direct reflecting gimick added wide soundstage for the rear effects, but when I used the adp350's, I heard the seperation in the soundfield that I was missing before. I was a bit weary about using a dipole speaker for the surround speakers, but these speakers added a new Dimension to movies and the effects that take place off screen in the rear of the listener. The adp350 is more or less a set of 2 mini monitors back to back wired out of phase and with no port. I thought these surrounds would make a great addition to the rest of my HT set up.
