Be careful with 3dB suggestion he is a PSB fanboy and his comments might be biased by that fact.
IMO, which is totally unbiased, the Paradigm Monitor are somewhere between PSB Alpha and PSB Image, and the Paradigm Studio somewhere above PSB Image, but also expensive compared to the PSB Image. If your budget allows, and I think $3K does, a Paradigm Studio set will do, but if not a pair of PSB Image T45, C40 center, and B15 rears are a great buy. I own T45/C40/B25 and enjoy their SQ very much.
