bookshelf to floorstanding-real upgrade?

I have 3 month old NHT sb3's that replaced Paradigm Titans. Much better sound, especially bass. Also, have great metal stands which make a big difference. I can still trade my Titans on floorstanding Paradigms-monitor 5's. I wonder if this is really the an upgrade & whether the Paradigms will be much better. I won't be able to bring my NHT's when I listen to the 5's & I can't bring the 5's back (200 miles). I thought the Titans were great until I bought the sb'3s...I have a small apartment and maybe I should just relegate the Titans to a backup system..any advice?

Hi!

To tell you the truth i have heard more good sounding bookshelf then floorstander speakers. And i am a floorstander fan... In my personal opinion, what will decide which "type" of speaker will sound best is the room. A small speaker won't be able to sound best in a large room and a big floorstander won't sound good put in a small space. Bigger isn't always automatically better.

Cheers!
