Trickle-down technologies from the  acclaimed Reference lines combined with best-in-class build materials  make the new Cinema speakers a perfect entry point for aspiring  audiophiles and home theater enthusiasts.<\/p>\n<p>Reengineered and redesigned from head to toe, Cinema is comprised of all new models including: <a title=\"Cinema 100 product page\" href=\"http:\/\/paradigm.com\/products\/products-by-category\/bookshelf\/paradigm\/cinema-series-v-4\/cinema-100\" target=\"_blank\">Cinema 100 satellite<\/a> (table-top stand and wall-mount bracket included),\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/paradigm.com\/products\/products-by-category\/lcr\/paradigm\/cinema-series-v-4\/cinema-200\" target=\"_blank\">Cinema 200 on-wall<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/paradigm.com\/products\/products-by-category\/lcr\/paradigm\/cinema-series-v-4\/cinema-400\" target=\"_blank\">Cinema 400 on-wall<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/paradigm.com\/products\/products-by-category\/lcr\/paradigm\/cinema-series-v-4\/cinema-trio\" target=\"_blank\">Cinema Trio 3-in-1 LCR<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/paradigm.com\/index.php?option=com_mtree&amp;task=viewlink&amp;link_id=249&amp;Itemid=2\" target=\"_blank\">Cinema Sub<\/a> and the <a href=\"http:\/\/paradigm.com\/products\/products-by-category\/ct-5-1-system\/paradigm\/cinema-series-v-4\/cinema-100-ct\" target=\"_blank\">Cinema 100 CT 5.1 system<\/a>.  A seemingly endless array of audio configurations can be arranged with  the combination of satellite, on-wall and 3-in-1 speakers, depending on  customer preference.<\/p>\n<p>Starting with build materials, Paradigm infused Cinema speakers  with Reference-quality crossovers, S-PAL satin-anodized pure-aluminum  dome tweeters and wire-mesh tweeter guards with WaveGuideTM technology  borrowed from the Reference Signature series, which encourage wide and  spacious dispersion while protecting the sensitive dome surface.  Mineral-filled polypropylene bass\/midrange cones with added mineral  content stiffen cone composition. Across the series, acoustic  achievements include: lower frequency extension, flat response curves,  further reduced distortion, sustained sensitivity and improved full  dispersion.<\/p>\n<p>Aesthetically, Cinema speakers include new curved and sculpted  acoustic suspension cabinets with industrial high-gloss finish, offering  a modern appeal. Push-through binding posts with new Easy-Glide wire  channels allow for painless installation and banana plug access. For  placement flexibility without sacrificing performance, Paradigm equipped  new Cinema with the EasyMount\u2122 wall-mounting system (and contemporary  tabletop stand option &#8211; Cinema 100 only). Cinema speakers also feature  removable self-aligning StayTight\u2122 magnetic grilles (excluding Cinema  100) for fit-like-a-glove contact and perfect alignment.<\/p>\n<p>While speakers get the most attention, the low-frequency  contributions of the Cinema Sub are not to be ignored. With a  dramatically increased dynamic range over the last Cinema Sub, this  subwoofer features an 8\u201d high-excursion driver made of polymer  composite, capable of producing 300 watts Dynamic Peak and 100 watts RMS  sustained. The Cinema Sub is included in the Cinema 100 CT system or  available a la carte and allows for two different placement options:  gloss side up or cloth side up depending on your aesthetic preference.<\/p>\n<p>The Paradigm MC-30 high-performance floor stand (sold separately)  adds another sturdy set-up option for the Cinema 100 with its extruded  aluminum post, polymer base and cast iron ballast. A customized bracket  head and hidden cable channel ensure this stand will never attract more  attention than the speaker it supports.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe original Cinema line was priced competitively with big box  store compact theater systems but offered customers a substantial  improvement in audio performance,\u201d said Mark Aling, director of  marketing for Paradigm. \u201cOnce people realized high-performance audio was  available at such tremendous value, Paradigm assumed a leadership role  in the audio industry. We are confident our new Cinema line will  continue that legacy.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Cinema 100: 2-driver, 2-way \u2013 1\u201d tweeter, 4\u201d bass\/mid driver.<br \/>\nCinema 100 2.0 EST US MSRP: $299, Cinema 100 3.0 EST US MSRP: $449<br \/>\nCinema 200 3-driver, 2-way \u2013 1\u201d tweeter, two 4\u201d bass\/mid drivers.<strong><br \/>\nEST.
