Interesting sidenote...Studio 20 was Class C in stereophile...believe Studio 60 was Class B...granted this is all relative and highly subjective...but outside of the bass reproduction...these models are quite similiar...add a decent sub to the 20s...and who knows...probably a dead heat...and yes the inflated cost of towers is primarily the cabinet...and depending upon the manufacturer... much of that is in veneers,custom options, etc...however they dont require stands...which is the hidden cost of smaller speakers...Enjoy your new speakers!
Bookshelf or Tower
I am in the hunt for new noise makers.
I have budget of about 5K.
I love good 2 channel imaging and play a variety of music at low to medium volumes as wife hate loud music.
I currently own Paradigm Studio 20 v.5 but want something with a bigger sound.
I am considering: Paradigm S2's, BW 805d but then I think at those price levels I could get floorstanders but I don't see why the floorstanders cost so much more. So confused.
My set up is Bryton 4B SST amp, Bryston BP 20 preamp and a modwrighted Sony DVP9000ES.
