Everyone knows my answer to this one :)
IMO, PSB Image series is a better value than Paradigm's monitor series. The image series, particulairly the T45, T55, and T65 have tighter deeper bass extensions than their Paradigm counterparts. There mids are on par but I find the highs on the PSB smooother, more refined than that of Paradigms. Both series image very well but again the PSB's are better in resolving sublte nuances in the music layering teh music across a deep wide soundstage. These are my findings and what I've heard. The PSBs were driven thru NAD, the Paradigms thru Denon.
Now out of the 2 PSB models mentioned, its up to you whether or not, the 3-4 HZ deeper extension is worth the extra $150. I have the ImageT45s at home and I can honestly tell you that they are NOT bass shy .
Good luck and have fun.

Any opinions or recommendations would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
