Paradigm Mini Monitors v.5

Does anyone have an opinion on the Paradigm Mini v.5's?
Thinking of getting these, over spending two times more
for the B&W 685's.

Listen to: Rock (all decades), Electronic (not dance), 60's/70's jazz, folk, and classical (mostly on vinyl).

Any help appreciated.

Thanks.

I have the Studio series 10 ver 5 in my office. I am very familiar with the B&W product. Night and day. Paradigm costs a lot less too.

Can't comment on the v.5, but I had the v.3. Great speakers, especially for rock. Big bass for a bookshelf, but boomy. I demoed the 685s when replacing my Minis, and found them to be better--tighter and more refined--but not that much better.

I recently compared similar level Paradigms to B&W. No contest -- Paradigm.
