There is one authorized Paradigm Reference dealer only locally.
I've gotten a quote for a pair of shielded Studio 60 and Studio CC for CAD$1999 (under US$1300) plus tax, which comes out to about only $100 off list price, which is higher than what I was quoted many moons ago.
Or I can get the speakers plus the Yamaha RXV1000 for a total of CAD$3200 (under US$2100), which translates to another $100 off only.
I'm willing to venture outside of downtown Toronto if I can get cheaper prices. I'm particularly interested in the speakers. Another place is Audio One. Any good?
The receiver does have the numerous digital inputs, pre-outs for all channels, and 5 channel stereo I want, but I don't think it has THX-like reequalization that I wouldn't mind having. I also need 6 inputs for DVD-Audio, and it would be nice to have pre-main coupling for an equalizer although I doubt I'd ever use it.
The receiver is really secondary since my current one works fine except for DVD-A and 5-channel stereo and THX re-eq. I can upgrade that later. What about Onkyo or Marantz?
