Amongst audio enthusiasts Paradigm is generally considered to be one of the more respectable speaker manufacturers, consistently delivery superb high-end sound without the high-end, audiophile price tag. They have wide-distribution throughout the U.S., but you typically only find them at the small and medium sized hi-fi shops rather than the big-box retailers like Best Buy or Circuit City. This tends to give them a more high-end image and maintains their consumer perception as a more popular brand. The Paradigm Monitor 7 speakers have the look and sound that would have you think they cost several thousands of dollars, so we were shocked to find that they carry an MSRP of just $679 USD per pair.
