I bought a pair of Radiient towers(their best) 3 years ago, and I couldn't be more disapointed. I think they are called helios but I can't remember the name. They are boomy, cheap, and to tall as the sweetspot requires you to be standing to hear the tweets properly. Absolutely no soundstage but they are built cheaply. Anybody have same or different results? Maybe my Elite 110w/channel receiver is not enough? However, I did try biamping with the surround rears and they sound worse with more juice. I am on the hunt for replacements and am considering PSB Image t65 or 55, M Logan preface, Def Tech, NHT, and paradigm.Any suggestions welcome.

There is not much you can do for the Radiient speakers. What are
the model numbers for the NHT, Definitive and Paradigm's that you
are looking at? What is your budget?

Sorry about having 2 posts, I'm new. my budget is 1000-1200. The models I'm looking at are Paradigm mon. 7, Def Tech studio mon 450 or BP8b(worried my cat will use as post),PSB Image t65 or t55, NHT absolute towers. I am running a Pioneer Elite vsx-90txv at 110/x7. I can't audition the NHT or the PSB but I've read good things. Again, sorry to all who r offended by my 2 posts! I guess I should have read the rules more carefully. Thanks

Try to go back to your other post - you can get a lot of info there.
It makes it easier to follow your needs. No harm done.
