Need ideas Upgrading Paradigm Studio 80's


I'm in the market to upgrade my Paradigm Studio 80 Ver1 speakers. I am looking in the price range of about $1750-$2000 USED here on Audiogon. So with that in mind, there are alot of $2500-$4000 speakers brand new in mind that are sold here to think about. I am using a McCormack DNA-225 amplifier (225w @8ohms, 400w @4 ohms) for amplification.

I have thought about the Paradigm Studio 100 Ver 2 speakers, but I have only heard the Paradigm Reference speakers (biased upon that fact..) and dont have any way to go audition speakers right now with my excessive work schedule.

I am ultimately looking for more dynamic transients, soundstaging, transparency, and most of all, keeping and improving the Bass (or getting more) than I currently get with my Studio 80's.

Please list suggestions of speakers that will rock the house (and by that I dont mean Klipsch!) that are in my price range.

Thanks for your time and suggestions.

They are little bit more bot worth it! THere are some Audio Physic Virgos for sale at $2500 I have had a pair for two years. I can't see ever upgrading my speakers now!
Look at the psb Stratus Gold i. There is a pair here on Audiogon somewhere for about $1500. They will out perform the 80s by a long margin.
