Martin Logan Motion 4 or Paradigm mini Monitor C. 6

I have not been impressed with the ML Motion 4. I think they are weak in the bass department, and bright in my opinion. Also I do not like the fact that they are 4 ohms, some receivers cannot take that. They are also really light, which concerns me, unless you want to mount them. I own a pair of the Mini Monitors and honestly, you cannot go wrong. They sound good for everything you throw at it. If you have a small-ish room, you wont need a subwoofer. The Mini Monitors are highly regarded, and said to be the best bookshelfs at this price point. I can believe it. They are two really different speakers, I really prefer the warmth the the Mini's because they are so strong with everything you throw at it.

EDIT: What was I on when I wrote this? This is the worst grammar and sentence structure I have ever seen.. Hahaha...

Hello,
Though I own Martin Logans, the ones you are looking at are not the Electrostatic Speakers that they are famous for. The Motion Series uses a "Folded Motion" Tweeter which was actually an Oskar Heil Design from 30 years ago whose Patent has expired.
While a fine Driver, the use of a Plastic Cabinet does not really excite me.

Paradigms are excellent. For the money, I would seriously look at PSB Image Series. You can get the now discontinued Image T-45 that retailed for 749 for under 500 Dollars from DMC-Electronics or Saturday Audio.

These are Floorstanding Speakers and really do sound great. Especially for the money. At Retail, they are an excellent value. At almost 50% off, an unreal value.
Here is an Review:http://www.soundstage.com/revequip/psb_image_t45.htm

Like Paradigm, PSB is an Canadian Company that uses the Facilities at Canada's NRC Facility to test and fine tune their Speakers.
Cheers,
