Quick suggestion from you experts. I have choice of buying brand new pair of Paradigm Millenia 20 for $899/pair or store display model of millenia 200 for same $899/pair
Store claims that the speakers are not even broken in but its out from paradigm factory more than a year back to first paradigm rep's warehouse and then to paradigm dealer (store).
So what will you suggest which one should i go with.
Your response will be highly appreciated.
Thanks

Some would say speakers dont really break in.
In my opinion I would check out a few other speakers. I personally dont feel the sound quality difference from their Cinema line is worth the price difference.

All depends on aesthetics. I would cross them both over at 80 Hz. Neither will play very loud below. They both sound pretty good, so it is a matter of whether you want them wall mounted or floor mounted. The 200's at that price are a steal.

You sacrifice sound quality over looks but it's not that bad. Initially i had 20's mounted on the wall and after some days of usage they start sounding better. I am not sure weather its my assumption or they were really sounding good. Anyway one thing i have noticed, they don't sound as great in the morning as they sound during night time.. whats the reason .. anyone noticed that.
Now i am planning to move them back and thinking of getting 200.

200 seems sound deeper and 20 sound louder than 200. Still I don't understand why dealers giving discount on millenia and not on any other paradigm speakers. Is it a push from paradigm to sell the millenia series.

If you don't have to have the aesthetics, you'll get better sound for your money with other Paradigms.
