Cheers!
Got these for $100 from a guy in my neighborhood. It is version 1 from late 90s. Condition is excellent - I needed to remove one stain from the grille. Otherwise perfect!
Originally wanted to sell them for profit but yesterday hooked them up and... YES they are staying with me
I now drive them with Sony TA-636 (60WPC) and tried Onkyo TX-2500(30WPC). Also have MCS3275 (75WPC)
Seems like both Sony and Onkyo do decent job (I can't turn up Onkyo dial past 11 as the sound gets too loud) but I heard that to make these speakers really sing I need something beyond 100WPC. Don't have such amp now.
Can you share your experience with paradigms - does super beefy amp make really that difference to justify investment?
