I don't have experience with either of those subs, but in general, you're going to get more bang for the buck buying internet direct (although SVS does sell through retail also). You're paying a lot for distribution and dealer markup on the Paradigm sub.
I currently have two SVS SB13 Ultras in my system and have also owned a few other SVS subs. I'd also recommend taking a look at Rythmik (my first choice for music) and Power Sound Audio (run by one of the founders of SVS).
