New blood needs your Amp/system advice, please.

IME the more power the better for this speaker.If you want to keep the speakers I would suggest 350wpc or better.You need a high current amplifier. Something like the Empirical Audio 585 Adcom..or just the basic one to start.One of the big Aragon amplifiers should work well also. The speakers need to be out from the rear wall maybe 3 to 5 ft if possible. If not the amplifier and speaker positioning..it's time to trade in the speakers. Room modes aside the speakers can be wooly all by themselves regardless of any help from a room. Just trying to save you the time of playing with sound panels. Find yourself a sealed speaker or one that has a smooth rolloff below 50 Hz without the 50 hz hump. You'll know that you've found it,when you hear it..the muddiness will be gone.

Good luck

For a new blood I must commend you on your great hearing!
You have accurately described what this speaker does on a frequency plot chart.There's a 2.5 Ohm load around 104 Hz. Also there's a huge boost in the upper bass output. The upper/mid treble also has a boost. The woofers and tweeters/midrange appear to be wired out of phase. No amount of room treaments or cabling will change it. You can help out the bass with a higher current amplifier...if you want to keep the speakers.Here you can read it for yourself Measurements .We audiophiles sometimes live in denial and find any means to bandaid a problem. My theory ..get rid of what's causing the problem and move on.
I need you to come over and ear tweak my system when you have time. ;-)

Cheers

I certainly don't want anyone to feel I'm picking on their speakers.There are plenty of speakers that cost more and have worse horrific measurments than the Paradigm 100v3.One of my favorite planars(Magnepans) measures like crapola. It's panels are inverted out of phase also.Soliloquys drivers are not in phase either. As well as some Sonus Fabers,Dynaudio and Vienna Acoustic models. Speaking of which the Vienna Acoustic Mahler has a horrific suckout between 800Hz and 2.4Khz..I'm talking -12dB. This is where a good portion of the human voice lies as well as many unamplified instruments.The Hz's and the dB's of Real Music.The Proac 3.8 and Magnepan 3.6R have 50Hz humps you could sit on..this may make them difficult to set up in certain rooms.It will give you a perception of more bass that really isn't in the actual recording...If you like it... roll with it.

The point is the measurements may help you in figuring out what sound you can live with in your room. And it may give you a head start on what you need to do to help the speakers along.You must decide what parts of the music are most important to you. Some just like a lot of volume..regardless if it makes all the instruments sound ridiculous or unnatural. Listening to different implementations of speakers/equipment in your room is the only way to know for sure what's right for you.

Good Luck
