jc,
Thanks for your suggestions,
Have listen and definely liked the Paradigm Studio 20's. But they're a little out of my price range, especially considering that I'll probably have to spend an additional $150-200 on decent stands, speaker cables. Now if I could find a deal on a used set........definely would be tempted.
Was considering the Axiom's but once again, you have the availability issue. I know I could order them and if I don't care for them send them back, but I generally prefer dealing one on one with a person or a dealer and not having to deal with sending things back and forth. Also, I like hearing a speaker first, and since I've never actually "heard" an Axiom, would be a little bit hesitant into getting into that type of an arrangement.
As for subs, not really interested primarily because the speakers will be used mostly for music and using the A-60's as an example, which only go down to about 50Hz, I find that I don't really need or miss the extra half-octave of bass. Another reason that a sub (or for that matter a tower/floor standing speaker) is out of the question is that because I live in a condo and would have to deal with the issue of the sub bass bleeding into adjacent units.
