Thanks Andy. I like some of the ones you mention (Definitive, Boston, Klipsch, and Polk), but IMHO, Paradigm still has them beat (price into consideration).

 

Have you considered speakers that hang on the wall?
You'll tend to get better sound for less money.
Paradigm has the Reference Millenia 20/30 line, which seem to get good reviews. http://www.paradigm.com/Website/Site...niaseries.html
There there are small internet direct sellers that have small speakers that can hang on the wall with brackets that also get very good reviews, such as www.axiomaudio.com and www.aperionaudio.com , www.av123.com (mostly floor standing speakers), These are suppose to be pretty amazing www.bgcorp.com and they have in-wall speakers.
The Theil in-ceilings are also suppose to kick ***- www.thielaudio.com .
You can check these out a a real Magnolia store, which will allow you to compare them to Def Tech Mythos. http://www.monitoraudio.co.uk/range.php?range=4

 

I had also heard of Axiom and their M22 v2 speakers. Apparently rave reviews on them and rival some of the Paradigm reference speakers. Too bad they don't sell either brands down here and I would need to purchase these without even listening to them first!
