Paradigm Studio or PSB Stratus?


I have auditioned the Studio 60 and the Stratus Bronze at two different dealers,under very different listening conditions, they seem very similar. I can't make up my mind which to bring home to audition. I presently own Paradigm 7SE Mk III's powered by B&K ST140 Amp and B&K Pro10MCpreamp. Sources include a Rotel RB900 table iwth Benz Micro Silver cartridge and a Nakamichi MB2S changer with a Audio Alchemy UltraDac. I listen mostly to jazz with a little of rock and world beat thrown in. Thanks in advance for any advice.

Hi. I can't comment on the PSBs. But I've owned a pair of Paradigm Studio 60s for almost a year. I use a Golden Tube SE-40 to drive them. I think it's one of the best systems in it's price range I've heard. The sound stage is real deep and natural. I also used a large Carver solid state amp with them for awhile. It didn't sound as good an the Golden Tube but it was more dynamic. The bass was suprisingly deep and tight with the big amp. Good luck Matt
