Perkadin: Agreed. I have a pair of old Paradigms (silk dome tweeters) which I modified over the years (new cross-overs, etc). These are very musical, albeit they don't image well. I'm just surprised that reviews of the Paradigms are for the most part spectacular...
Fernando: Will try some other amps. I agree that the Pass is probably not a good option.
BTW... This particular Adcom was designed by Pass himself. I contacted him many years ago and he explained to me how to increase the bias on them (you just increase it until the heat sinks reach 50C!). I also modified the PS on the amp, and it really does sound a lot sweeter than the stock amp (of which I have two more: center channel and surrounds).
