Paradigm persona vs. Monitor audio Platinum

It doesn’t make sense that a speaker works well with 95% of all electronics. There are too many variables to make that true. No way that a speaker with a First Watt amp will sound the same as one with a Audio Research 160M. Yes an extreme example but speakers have sonic and electronic characteristics as do amplifiers. 

And Robert Deutsch had the Wilson's in there before he brought in the Platinum 300 lls. And he said the Platinum were better than the Wilson. I've listened to Wilson focal sonus Faber here in Vancouver. Didn't think too much of the Wilson or focal, but I really love the Sonus Faber,very natural sounding except the soundstage was not as wide and deep as the Platinum. I don't understand how you don't get that monitor audio Platinum are world-class speakers, they beat Wilson,Magico,Raidho and many other high-end companies that are charging ridiculous amounts of money for a pair of speakers and their driver technology is way ahead of many many companies. Unlike many other companies that spend a ton of money on marketing they have decided to put that money into research and development that's why monitor audios name is not that well known in North America but yet they are the number one selling speaker in great Britain. I have listened to the monitor audio 500 here in Vancouver and I can tell you without a doubt that it will leave the paradigm 9h and many other higher price speakers in the dust it's that much better and it only cost thirty eight thousand as opposed to the paradigm which is 35 and nowhere near as well built.

First point Deutsh had Sabrinas which are okay at best.

Did you not get the point we could be Monitor audio dealers in about five seconds if we wanted the line.

Just because a Vancouver dealer likes Monitor audio over the Paradigms may mean that that dealer finds Monitor easier to sell did you ask him why he hasnt dropped Paradigm? Could it be that some of his clients prefer Paradigm?


Also Urbie where are you getting your facts from there is no way Monitior audio is outselling B&W in Britan.

Again Urbie I personally owned Monitor Audio Studio 20s in the early 2000s.

Monitor audio is very well known in the States, Paradigm spent Millions of dollars in R&D to develop the Persona line.

Again you smear Paradigm to praise Monitor wonder why?

For the record we dont think the Personas are better than any other speaker we like many brands. 

You also miss the genius of the 9H which is a room tunable loudspeaker that can work in nearly any sized room pitty you cant say the same thing with the Pl 500s.

Big deal so they'll be bright and hard sounding in any room so what the five hundreds of still a way better sounding speaker better bass better imaging better depth better three-dimensionality just better everything and I'm not smearing paradigm I'm just stating a fact the monitor audio is a much better sounding speaker. And I know this dealer personally and he wouldn't lie. So don't go smearing a dealer that you know nothing about. And like I said I'll put my system up against anything you got in your store and I guarantee you mine will leave yours way far in the dust.
