Paradigm Compact Monitor


I am eyeing a pair Paradigm Compact Monitors on (gasp!) Ebay. I know Paradigm entered the scene in the late 80's/early 90's with the Monitor series, but i cannot find any information on the internet concerning this particular model. Is assistance available out there from Audiogoners? Thanks.

I had a pair i purchased new (aluminum tweeter model)around 1994.I had them for about 4 years...and to this day they are the finest sounding speakers i've ever owned.I sold them to a co-worker and regretted it ever since.To my ear they had one of the finest mid-range i've heard.Really clean and somewhat lush sounding.Good with all types of music,but especially jazz,absolutely incredible for jazz.Many people who owned them believe they sounded much better then the current reference series,and i agree.the current reference series is fuller sounding,but it's mid range is not near as good.Hope this helps.
