Heard Cary 300B with ProAcs and it was a wonderful sound...I can't quite afford such a setup now but just upgraded my amp from Parasound to Sonic Frontiers Power 1 driving my old Paradigm Studio 20.
My impression is that Paradigms are great speakers (esp considering the price). If I won't find a good deal on ProaAcs here soon - I am surely upgrading to Paradigm Reference Series.
What I surely hear now is that they match well with tube amp but don't sound as deep (bass is somehow weaker and not as tight) as when driven by more powerful solid state amp.
