Sberger,
I built and run a pair of Paramours and they are very good for the price. I still don't know that the 3.5 watts/ch. is really going to work well with the Paradigms.
I recently owned both a stock and a modified Cayin TA-30 integrated amp and they were both outstanding values. They are 35 watts/channel which will definately drive your speakers. For value, the stock unit is excellent, for increased sonic performance, the Bizzy Bee mod'd unit is very nice. See www.b2baudio.com for details. The owner, Paul G. is a great guy.
I've owned other budget tube amps from Antique Sound Labs, Anthem and others and the Cayin TA-30 was less expensive and noticably superior in sonics and build quality. Like some of the others, it's built in China, so let your wallet and conscience be your guide.
