    There's no earth-shattering new developments in the sixth version of Paradigm's Monitor speaker lineup, but let's face it -- after four revision cycles, you've probably got things pretty dialed in. Take the modest (at least on paper) improvements to the Monitor v.6s as a sign of the company's dedication to solid engineering development, okay? Speakers are coming under increasing fashion scrutiny, so many of the changes in the Monitor v.6 series are cosmetic: redesigned magnetic grills that will stay perfectly centered, nickel-plated screws and a new finish called Wengé (pictured above). What makes our ears perk up are the redesigned, phase-coherent crossovers that Paradigm says raise the efficiency of these speakers to horn-loaded levels. As always, the Monitor models are an affordable slice of the high-end, with prices ranging from $150 - $700 per speaker. Full press release after the break. %Gallery-29168%
