new Paradigm Reference?

I was told yesterday by a salesman that Paradigm is coming out with a new Reference line topping out at $8,000 in a couple months. I'm almost ready to buy a pair of Studio 100's but now am wondering if I should wait. Does anyone know this to be true? It seems like a big leap in targeted demographics for them.

I replaced a pair of B&W N804s with my 100s and have never looked back eventhough the cabinet of the 804s was much nicer than the 100s, as you said. You will not be disappointed with the 100s however. Arthur

Just a hunch but I think Paradigm is going to think "if it ain't broken, why fix it?" when moving on to the new generation, keeping most of the innards the same. However now they can jack the price up to where everyone says it should have been for the current generation and cash in on their unexpectedly super-high-quality sound. I love my 100v2s to death and won't be "upgrading" to the new ones. my $0.02. Good luck!
