Axiom M3ti vs. Paradigm MiniMonitors

[kexodusc]

I can tell you this much. The Paradigm Mini Monitor is designed much better that's for sure.

Based on what? I've owned both...There's definitely NOT a clear winner in terms of design or build quality!

The Axiom M3ti doesnt even have a filter on the woofer to filter out the high frequencies.

It is clear to me after this statement you have absolutely no clue what you're talking about. Some of the best speakers in the world employ simple high-pass filters.

The M3 has a bad midrange glare that I rarely ever hear anyone talk about here that does in fact exist. The Paradigm M-Monitor costs a little more but at least it's been designed by a more competent designer who knows it's important to make a speaker that measures relatively flat and sounds relatively smooth. The M3 is maximized for profit not sound quality.

Have you even looked at the response curves for these speakers?
As I said before, the grainy harshness or brightness in the Mini Monitors is anything but smooth...tolerable, but not smooth. Quite honestly, the midrange in the M3Ti is comparable to the Mini Monitor, if not better, though is dependant on off-axis listening IMO.
