Advice please.

Room is rather small (approx. 20 X 20 feet); musical preference is classic rock. I generally do not listen to music at very loud levels. Not sure exactly what the concept of SPL is. Sorry.

Thank you all very much for your help I appreciate it.

What would I like to improve upon over my current speakers? Better sound - specifically better bass (read: more punchy bass), cleaner and more detailed. I’ve had 2 pairs of Focals in the last almost 20 years: Chorus 736 S and Chorus 836 S. The 836’s sound much better than the 736’s. But I have listened to both the Paradigms and the B&W’s I mentioned in my original post and can not decide between them. What I was hoping for was some input/opinions as to which would be better Or more appropriate for listening to rock music. It is the only music I listen to except for the occasional jazz fusion bands. I do not want to buy a pair of Cerwin Vegas or have to add a subwoofer. Just looking to improve over the 12-year old Focals i now have hooked up but to improve over all especially the bass. Thanks.

Thank you.

Thanks.

Thank you all for your input. I most certainly appreciate it.

The Monitor Audio Golds are out of my price range unfortunately but I had admired them without being able to consider them.

Klipsch RF-7 III’s? And I am in fact heeding the lack of endorsement for my first 2 choices. Thanks. 

Thanks.

I found a pair of Acoustic Zen Adagio’s for $2500 CAD in Hamilton (I live in Montreal). Have messaged the seller to see about shipping etc. very good price in my mind. Thanks to you simao for your suggestion.
