I've had a pair for almost a year. When I started looking for loudspeakers my budget was around $1200. In that range I auditioned both mini-monitors and full-range speakers from B&W, Vandersteen, Sound Dynamics, and Paradigm. As an all-around speaker I thought the Paradigm Studio 60s were the best of the bunch. And since I bought a pair used for $600 they were even better! The Vandersteen 1C was better at chamber music and jazz. For imaging the Sound Dynamics RTS-9 blew them all away. But, the sound was too edgy and I couldn't listen to them for more them a song or two before listener fatigue set in. As for the rest, I thought the Paradigm Studio 60s were better in every way; though I'm sure B&W owners would disagree. They got even better when I bi-wired them. Complaints? Well, I don't think they have the best imaging when it comes to classical. And the highs can be a little brittle sometimes. All-in-all I haven't felt a need to replace them.
