upgrade from Paradigm Studio 20s?


I bought a new set of Studio 20s for my main (living room) system last year. They have been a big upgrade from my college cast-off speakers .. my first set of serious quality speakers. Now, I am thinking of another upgrade.

My budget might be $2K for a pair ... bookshelves or towers. Actually, I might consider towers, in order to eliminate the sub ... simplify life a bit.

Anyway, would I hear an improvement, at this price-point?
Any suggestions?

Would have to be attractive and high WAF.

Thanx,
Rob

keep the sub and get good bookshelves. all the above are good suggestions. I would add some totems and the smallest PMC (the DB1i I think). heard lots of good things about the proacs and some of the other brands but the best for detail I've heard are the PMC's. I have some ERA D5 units that IMO beat the paradigms but I dont think they will do what you want as well as your budget will allow, actually thats a nice way of saying for $2K you can do better. $2K will get you some really nice monitors and I must agree with Bob above about the $3K price break.
