I'd say they're more art pieces than sound reproduction equipments.

... there is something special about the solid marble cabinet on the white marble nOrh 9.0. I'm afraid I'll always be in love with this speaker.

As much as I love the Rosewood I really like my Black Mozarts. Beautiful for $3000.

NO.. They are NOT my Sig 8's. I took a brief look on the web and there were limited photos available on the Paradigm Sig's, so I took that off a review web site. I was a tad surprised that Paradigm did not have any high resolution photos of their speakers. I am sure a current Sig 8 owner on AVS can do a much better job then that photo that I found on the net.

The only Paradigm's I've owned were the Studio 100's, Studio 40, 20's and the Reference center, version 2 series. I actually still own the 20's from 10 years ago and still use them in my main room until I can get my act together as my speaker choices have been all over the map. I'll never sell the 20's as they make great backup speakers and are work horses. They are easy to transport, durable as hell and sound worthy in their own right.

My favorite in your selection of speakers besides the Magico 6's (what a wet dream) are the Magico Mini's. Even though they seem outrageously expensive at 30K for monitors, I'd love to own them but could only maybe afford them on a used purchase off Audiogon. Not this year but something to think about in the future.
