Does anyone know anything about these Dipole Paradigm ADP 150's? There is a pair locally for $75. I will be setting up a home theater with a pair of TSI100's for side surround duty and a pair of R15's for rear surround. I wanted to know if it would be worth the $75 to use these Paradigms in place of either the TSI100s or R15's. Thanks!

    I know they would annihilate the R15s, at least. And for $75, it's well worth the chance. It'll be cake to get your money back out of them if you don't like them. $75 is well under the going price on these.
    I don't read the newsssspaperssss because dey aaaallllllllll...... have ugly print.

    Ok, if it were you, would you put these as the side surrounds and put the Tsi100's in the back or put these in the back and leave the Tsi100's on the sides?

    Good question. :p

    Gut feeling says put them in the back, but i also have no experience with the TSi100s. I'd say try them out both ways and see what sounds better, but i WOULD suggest picking them up.

    Thanks, I plan on picking them up tomorrow morning since the seller is about a mile from my house. If anyone else knows about or has an opinion on these please speak up. I really can't find too much info on these on the internet.

    Instead of starting another thread, I thought I'd ask another question in this one.

    Can anyone give their opinion on Paradigm Atom v.3 speakers VS Polk R15s VS Tsi100's?

    Same deal.... i haven't heard the TSi100s, but the Atoms should smoke the R15s easily.
