Paradigm Monitor 5v2 - Studio 40 v3 - worth it?


I'm planning to upgrade my Monitor 5 V2 with premiere S-series stands & NAD c320BEE int. amp within the coming weeks, I am thinking of just making a step up the ladder to the studio 40s with a higher end NAD int amp also (c352/372).

Anyways, I am wondering what you guys think about the studio 40 v3s vs the monitor 5 v2s? Is the price difference worth it? And what do you recommend for amplification for a room about 15x20 in size.

I made the move from the Monitors to the Studio series several years ago. I recently demo'd my v.1 Studio 60s versus the newer v.3 series. What a difference. Definitely go for the Studio v.3's.

I have driven the Studio 60's with an 85 watt Parasound amp and they sounded great. I think the NAD amp you are considering is an excellent product and you would have an awesome system. Now just add the Cambridge Azur 640C cd player and you have it made.

Good Luck
