Front Speakers ( ) reproduce dialog, sound effects and much of the music.

Center Speaker ( ) reproduces dialog, sound effects and music. It can

be placed on top of a TV (or behind a perforated screen in a front-projection

system). If used with a direct-view TV, this speaker must be magnetically

shielded to prevent picture interference.

Surround Speakers ( ) reproduce ambience and sound effects critical

to the full dimension of multichannel music and movies. Surround speakers

with a uniform reverberant soundfield and accurate full-bandwidth bass,

like Paradigm

ADP

™

speakers, work best.

Rear Speakers ( ) contribute dimensional size and realism. Here

also, Paradigm

ADP

™

speakers, with their uniform reverberant soundfield

and accurate full-bandwidth bass, work best.

Subwoofer ( ) handles deep bass, giving dynamic power to low-frequency

effects in movies and the bass content in music.

Why ADP

speakers work best for music and movies

MUSIC AND HOME THEATER … where do Surround and Rear speakers fit in?

ABOUT SURROUND/REAR SPEAKERS

Movie theaters use multiple arrays of Surround/Rear speakers to keep

viewers from being distracted by the sound of any single one (Fig. a).

Conventional forward-radiating speakers cannot reproduce movie theater

surround sound in your home. If they are loud enough to blend with the

front speakers they draw attention to themselves. Turn them down so they

don’t distract you and they won’t blend with the fronts (Fig. b).

So how can you hear all of the glorious surround sound you’re supposed

to? With Paradigm

reverberant soundfield ADP

™

Surround/Rear speakers

placed to the sides and/or rear of the listener (Figs. c, d & e).

Like movie theater surround speakers, ADP

™

Surround/Rear speakers envelop

you in sound without drawing your attention away from the movie you’re

watching. They add size and dimension to the soundstage, and ensure a

seamless transition when sound and effects move from front and center to

side and rear speakers.

ADP

™

speakers are just as important for multichannel music. Their ability to

create a large, non-localized soundfield contributes multidimensional realism

to the reproduction of the original recording’s acoustic space.

The diffuse sound of Paradigm

ADP

™

Surround/Rear speakers turns your

listening into a magical experience – they put the “theater” in home

theater and make music sound “live”!
