Picked them up for $40 bucks can't figure out what they are but they sound good. Guy said they were Atom Monitors V1.

After digging around online, I believe they are the very first line of Paradigm Titan Monitors. Titan V1's so to speak but I could be wrong

My speaker looks very similar to his but our dimensions are off. When I measured my speakers;
woofer 6in
depth 9in.
width 7.75in

I can't see pictures anymore with this software upgrade. Why don't you try contacting Paradigm directly. I'm sure that if you email them the photos they can tell you what you have.

I could tell that they were an early titan because it says titan on the woofer and the tweeter is a vifa which Paradigm used when they first started making speakers then when the monitor line became big they started making all the drivers in house. So you do have a very early model paradigm there and should provide you more than your moneys worth.

...didn't know Vifa made the drivers... they were pretty good... a bit "wooly"... I don't even know... metal tweeter? They were definitely worth the $200 I paid...

Actually when paradigm first came out with those speakers I believe they used a vifa soft dome tweeter at least their bigger tower speakers used a soft dome until they came out with the new monitor series and that is when they started making their own tweeters which were titanium.
