Denon AVR3805 + Paradigm Speakers a good idea?
|
New member Username: Robert_r1CA Post Number: 1 Registered: Nov-04 | My budget is $2500-$3000 for speakers and receiver. I really don't know the best options for me. I was recommended the Denon which I can find online for about $900. The Paradigm speakers are nowhere to be found though. Where/how does one purchase them? What a good Paradigm setup for my budget? I was looking at their "Recommended System #4." Also, is there a better, more cost effective system, that will fit my price range? The sound system is to compliment a new Mits. WD 62725 but I really don't want to spend a fortune on the sound system. Please advice. Thanks, Robert. |

Their price equivalent package would have: left/right DM602.5 S3 Center LCR60 S3 Rear L/R DM601 S3 Sub ASW 600. How would you compare the BW package vs. the ParaDigm. This system will 90% be used for movies off TV, DVD playbacks and watching sports. |

The Paradigm has excellent soudstage and better clarity and seems to me a perfect match for the Denon. But that is just me, a lot of folks love their B&W. Have you listened to any of these systems? Ultimately, you will be the best judge, you will be living with them |

Unregistered guest | I have an earlier model Denon 3802. Very nice. Plus I have the Paradigm Reference Series Studio 100 speakers (2) and am extremely happy with them. I bought them at Sound Waves which is a chain store, paid $1800 for the pair. They have a list price of about $2300 or at least did when I bought them. I am considering the Servo 15 sub now, but quite frankly the base is very good already without the sub. Go for it, you will not be disappointed at all. |

Anonymous | Robert, I have 2 Paradigm Monitor 5 v.2 front speakers in cherry and their cc370 center speaker v.3 in black that I am selling. They are in excellent condition and my price is well within your budget. Please contact me if you are interested. Thanks. |
