Are the Paradigm Founder Series really, really good speakers?

I heard the Paradigm 120H speakers at Axpona. I am now lusting after them. They sounded phenomenal to my ears. Just excellent.

Well, it looks like a toss up between the 100f and the 120H. I have a really big space 25 by 40 and would be interested in hearing from this group about experiences in a bigger space with either of these two speakers?

I am curious how the Founders compare to the older TOTL Signature V.3 speakers? Anyone have 1st hand experience?

@mdhowes I have the 120H, it is an excellent speaker.  It should fill a pretty big room without much of an issue.  Great speaker, I really dig mine.  Huge soundstage, excellent imaging and the EQ'd bass with the big class D amps is tremendous.  

I would tell you they put you in the front 10 rows of a concert so to speak, some like to sit a little further back. So, I would give you that as the caveat.  But I really like them.  I've not loved most paradigm in the past, but these are excellent and don't take much to drive them.  I'm using a solid state amp to push the mids and highs, if you wanted to play with that part of the sound a bit, you could easily use a tube amp, or integrated amp also.  They are not EQ'd up top.  Just 300hz down with the class D amps.

@dep14 . Thank you for your input. I am auditioning the 100 and 120 this week. I have at my disposal my beloved 4B Bryston and should I crave even more power I also have 2 Hypex Ncore500 mono blocks that I could use in a Bi amp configuration to pick up the low end on the 100fs. Alternatively I could keep the D class amps to power my whole home in ceiling speakers and keep the Bryston to use exclusively for use with either the 100Fs or the 120Hs. I will be auditioning a pair of Focal Kanta 2 as well although I have been hearing less favourable reviews  lately. Cheers
