Full Range or Monitor?

Hi everyone, I have a small dedicated listening room and have always used monitors in my Levinson/Wadia system. Yesterday a friend of mine brought over some Paradigm Reference 60's and told me to listen to these for a few days. He knows that I am in the market for a good pair of monitors and thinks I should at least listen to a full range speaker to see what it does in my room. I had always been under the impression that a full range speaker would overload my room and not image like small monitors, but in this case the full range speakers actually sound quite good in my room. Now I am confused...should I go with moniotrs or full range? One thing I might add, he came by shortly after I returned from a local shop where I had autioned the Sonus Faber Signum...A truely refined monitor that seemed to everything right, although totally different then the Paradigms that are in my room right now. Any input would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
