I'm currently running a Yamaha RXV1300 and the room is a rectangle 13'x17' with the speakers in the corner. If i cannot convice my wife to go with the floor standing speakers, which of the two bookshelf Paradines would you suggest. I will of course be adding the corresponding Center Speaker that works best with each. Help
I have the Mini montors as part of my HT system. I was given the same criteria by my better half... That said, I am happy with them, but as I started searching for a pair of bookshelf speakers to go in a newly built book case in our main listening area, I was leaning toward the Studio 20s. After following the recommendations of several folks here, I ended up researching and buying Monitor Audio Bronze 2 (MA B2). I also needed a front ported speaker for this same reason. I am very happy with them. I have not heard the Center. Check them out. http://www.monitoraudio.com/products.../series/b2.htm

I bought mine at Saturday Audio.

Happy hunting.
