Help me with this choice Paradigm, JM Lab, Sonus

Hello. I just recently had a listening session to compare the Paradigm Signature S-4, and the JM LAb ELectra 906. Both are stand mounted (Thats all the room I have, and all the money I have:) Both sounded very nice, but the Paradigm imaging was amazing compared to the Electra. I expected the reverse to be true. The paradigm had a little more bottom end because of more and larger drivers, but i liked the JM labs tweeter more. I also am considering SOnus Faber COncerto's used here on audiogon. I used to sell them, so I am "familiar" with them. These are the Home series COncertos, the ones on stands. DOes anyone have any input? I listen mostly to progressive rock, whice has a little bit of everything in it. I have also been known to listen to harder stuff, but at the same time I listen to classical and mild stuff too. I need a good all round speaker around $2500. Help.

Excellent responce by Newmanoc. Not only do the Sonus Fabers rock but they do it with relish. I find there presentation open, communicative, clear, and superbly
listenable. Thye have as much accuracy as one could want
along with an unfailing ability to make you listen to the MUSIC and not how the speaker is reproducing it. Give a good long hard listen to them.

PS. The other point about flavors....couldn't agree more with that either. Everyone's got a favorite, everyone's got
a line that just doesn't light their fire. Doesn't mean they are not good....just that they are different.
