-
- There is no passive radiator in any Paradigm loudspeakers. The 9se
- use a single 1 inch tweeter and two 8 inch bass/mid units. Both bass
- drivers are powered and active. Sonically, I think there is an
- easily discernable difference between the 9se and the 7se.

-
- You are thinking of the Studio Monitors (~$1800). They are 3-ways.
- The 11seMkII that I have sitting on the floor behind me are definitely
- two-way design.
-
- >Whichever speaker you get, make sure you get stands and heavy gauge wire.
-
- Good advice. ('Cept for the 11se, and the Studio Monitor. They are
- already tall enough, and don't require stands.)
