Atmos In-Ceiling Can Someone Explain How Much of a Difference There is between these Paradigm V1 and V2s?

Hi all,

I bought two Paradigm atmos ceiling speakers from eBay (new and sealed). I was under the impression they were the V2 version but when they arrived they are the V1 version - was barely able to find any literature on them but did find a spec sheet. Not all that concerned about it, the only difference could tell on the spec sheet was a 1 inch tweeter vs the newer one which is 3/4. figured this was the best place to ask how much of a difference that makes? Also if there are any other differences you can tell that I can't? Thanks in advance!

Frequency response, low frequency extension and sensitivity are the same on both versions. You would have to see a frequency response graph to note any differences but those are hard to find for ceiling speakers. I have the P65R and have been happy with them. There is only a moderate amount of content that goes to the ATMOS speakers so I doubt that you would be able to notice any significant difference.
