I can second the used Platinum Solo's which seem to run $675 when listed on Audiogon. Full range, articulate, yet sweet when the amp is capable. With your amp there will be bass with clarity, speed, and even startle factor ( which converts to smile factor ) if listening in the nearfield. At this modest price the bass really is special.
Help me pick a monitor
I am moving into a smaller place and need to replace my Paradigm Studio 100s. I am a big fan of Paradigm, and am looking for an accurate monitor with punch (must be a monitor/bookshelf speaker I can put on a stand). My music taste favor acoustic guitar (I like a sweet mid-range) and some bass heavy stuff (Everthing But The Girl). I use an Anthem Amp 2 and a Sonic Frontiers Line 1. I can spend $2000 but less is better of course.
So far I am interested in:
1) Paradigm 40 v.3
2) Tyler Linbrook Ref Monitors
3) JM Lab Cobalt Monitors
Please give some advise, especially if you have experience with the ones I have mentioned.
